SUGAR CORN 



Culture. Plant in hills 3 feet apart each way and 5 or 6 kernels in a hill. The 

 ground should be made rich with well-rotted manure. Hoe well. To have the 

 finest Sweet Corn, it must be picked in just the right condition; that is when the 

 skin of the grain breaks at the slightest puncture, and plantings should be made 

 frequently enough to have a supply at this stage. The quality will be inferior if it 

 is either a few days too old or too young. 



Burlington Hybrid. 



While not strictly a sweet Corn, this is a very 

 profitable Corn to grow for early market. The 

 grains not being shriveled are hardy and can be planted very earl}-. Burlington 

 Hybrid Corn makes an ear six to eight inches long, and fills the basket quickly, 

 and makes an exceedinly attractive market Corn. It is very early, coming in with 

 Adams' Early, and is much the same type of Corn, but with ears more than double 



the length ; highly recommended for market, 

 but not sweet for home use. Bj- mail, post- 

 paid, pkt. 10 cts., pt. 20 cts., qt. 30 cts.; by 

 express, qt. 20 cts., %pk. 60 cts., pk. $1, bus. 

 $3-50. 



Peep o'DaV. '^'''^ points of this 



— ^ remarkable new Corn 



are its extraordinary earliness and sweet- 

 ness. The early varieties of Sweet Corn do 

 not, as a rule, yield as heavily as the later 

 sorts ; but owing to the fact that the stalks 

 bear from two to three ears each, and that 

 tliey are very dwarf, which admits of their 

 being planted close together, it not only gives 

 an early yield, but it gives one of great pro- 

 ductiveness as well. By mail, postpaid, pkt.

very fine, very early Sugar Corn ; hardy and 

 c ui be planted fully as earl)- as the Early 

 Adams, and seed does not rot easilj- when 

 planted early. The stalks grow about 5 feet 

 high, and mostly bear two well-developed 

 ears to the stalk. It is of extra-fine quality, 

 very sweet and delicious. A good early market sort. By mail, postpaid, ])kt. to cts., pt. 20 cts., qt. 

 35 cts.; by express or fceight, qt. 25 cts., Kpk. 80 cts., pk. $1.40. 



Golden Bantam ^'"^ ^o*"" extra-early, very sweet and of a delicious flavor. As indicated 

 in its name, the grain when ready for use is a rich creamy yellovv, deepen- 

 ing to an orange-yellow as it ripens. I do not recommend it as a market sort, as its color gives it the 

 appearance of being old, but when once used it will be popular on account of its rich flavor. By mail, 

 postpaid, pt. 30 cts., qt. 45 cts.; by express, qt. 30 cts., ^2pk. $1, pk. $i.7S- 



Arranged in order of maturity. Large packets 5 cts. each ; ears 20 cts. each, postpaid
