Three WORLD-BEATING SWEET CORNS for 1906 



Earlier than the Cory. Thousands of my customers who planted 

 "First of All" in 1905 speak in the highest praise of this incomparable 

 Sweet Corn. Thousands of comparative tests made by Sweet Corn ex- 

 perts throughout the country as well as at Roekford Seed Farms have 

 proven it to be from three days to a week earlier than Cory, making it 

 very desirable, not only for family gardens, but an especial boon to 

 market gardeners who desire to have the first Sweet Corn in market, 

 and thereby receive the top-notch prices. The illustration, .engraved 

 from a photograph of an average ear reduced in size, shows the form 



of the ears; which are of good size, well filled with large grains to the 

 very tip. Many of the ears contain from ten to twelve rows, while the 

 Cory generally has only eight rows. In habit of growth it excels all 

 other early varieties, being stocky and exceptionally vigorous. The 

 quality is most superior, very excellent and surpassingly sweet. You 

 cannot help being pleased by planting Buckbee's "Best Of All."

BUCKBEE'S BEST" ALL SWEET CORN. 



After years of careful selection I am able to offer you the best early 

 Sweet Corn on the market. The demand for this certainly "Best of 

 All" varieties exhausted my stock early in the season again last year. 

 Owing to the very favorable growing season the past year, I am in 

 hopes to have enough to go all around this year, yet from the heavy 

 advance orders that we have had on this variety I cannot too;' strongly 

 urge you to order early and make sure of your supply. ^Buckbee's 

 "Best of All" is of exceptionally stocky growth and an d&undant and 

 satisfactory yielder; ears of exceptionally good size and oLeperfect color, 

 kernels very broad and by far the sweetest, richest, wjffitest and most 



tender of any early variety. Not only is it valuable for family uses, 

 but for early market and shipping purposes it is also in the lead. Mr- 

 Crane, one of the most prominent Sweet Corn specialists, writes: "Gave 

 Buckbee's 'Best of All* a fair trial, and will say that it surpasses every 

 claim you make for it, and more, too. I can highly recommend it for 

 all general purposes." I have placed the price of this desirable variety 

 of Sweet Corn within the reach of all. Postpaid, Pkt. 8c; % Pt. 12c ; 

 pt. 20c; qt. 30c

This Sweet Corn as now improved is the best for main crop. The 

 illustration distinctly shows the formation and depth of grains and the 

 manner in which they are set on the cob, which is small in comparison 

 to the size of the ears, making this strain of Stowell's Evergreen Sweet 

 Corn the most preferable variety ever offered for main crop. For table 

 use the quality of Buckbee's Private Stock Evergreen Sweet Corn 

 cannot be excelled. It is very tender, sugary, and remains a long time 

 in condition suitable for cooking. Coming into market at a time when 

 the main crops are being sold, these are verv important conditions. 

 For canning purposes Buckbee's Private Stock Evergreen Sweet 



Corn will prove most satisfactory. Its large ears, with long, slender 

 grains, make by far the most salable canned corn, and it out-yields all 

 other varieties. Many of nfy customers who made trials of this splen- 

 did Sweet Corn the past year report yields ef over 200 bushels of ears 

 per acre. You cannot possibly be disappointed by planting Buckbee's 

 Private Stock Evergreen. My price to one and all as iong as stock 

 seed lasts: Postpaid, pkt. 3c;^pt. 12c; pt. 20c; qt. 30c
