 Pkt., 10 cts.; pint, 20 cts.; quart, 35 cts.; gallon, 

 $1.25; peck, $2.35; bushel, $9.00. 



Golden Bantam. One of the sweetest corns grown. 

 It is a dwarf medium early variety of exceptionally 

 good quality. In all respects it is a gem — in size of 

 plant, ear and grain. It is particularly well adapted 

 to small gardens, on account of its small size; to the 

 more pretentious on account of its exessive cropf^ing 

 ability on a given area, and to all because of its 

 superb quality and luscious^ satisfying flavor. It may 

 be planted to advantage in hills three feet apart each 

 way. If in rows, they should be three feet apart and 

 the plants standing singly at nine-inch intervals. It 

 is probably the best to use where only one variety is 

 planted, for it succeeds admirably under all condi- 

 tions. Pkt., 10 cts.; pint, 25 cts.; quart, 45 cts.; 

 gallon, $1.65; peck, $3-25; bushel, $12.00. 



Kendel's Early Giant. Very early for so large- 

 eared a sort; fine quality. Pkt., 10 cts.; pint, 20 cts.; 

 quart 35 cts.; gallon $1.25; peck $2.35; bushel $9.00-

Sweet Corn is undoubtedly one of the most popular vegetables 

 the world over. It is a very simple matter to have a full supply 

 of ears throughout the entire growing season — make sowings every 

 two weeks. 



The quality of an ear of sweet corn depends altogether on the 

 sta<je of growth. When the skin of the grain is easily punctured 

 by "the thumb nail the ear is just right for the table— a few days 

 loo young or a few days too old makes much difference. 



Culture. The Sweet or Sugar varieties, being liable to rot in cold or wet 

 • round sTiould not be planted before May or until the ground has become 

 warm- for succession continue planting every two weeks until the middle 

 ,if luly in rich, well-manured ground, in hills 3 feet apart each way, cover- 

 ing" about half an inch, and thin out to three plants to a hill. The extra 

 early varieties can be planted 18 inches in a row and 2/2 feet between rows. 



Extra Early Ideal. The earliest, best, most profitable Com ever 

 introduced. We are certain that this corn will take the leading 

 place which it deserves. Large ears, sweet, delicious flavor, tender 

 and extremely early. See also page 3. Pkt., 10 cts.; pint, 20 cts.; 

 quart, 30 cts."; gallon, 85 cts.; peck, $1.65; bushel, $6-00.

 Adams' Extra Early. Pkt., 10 cts.; pint, 20 cts.; quart, 30 cts.; 

 peck, $1.65; bushel, $6.00- Ears, 75 cts. per dozen. 



Peep-0-Day. The two points to this remarkable Com are its 

 extraordinary earliness and unparalleled sweetness. So marked is 

 its sweetness and delicacy of flavor that many of our customers 

 plant Peep-o-Day exclusively, arranging the plantings a few days 

 apart so as to have this delicious Corn throughout the season It is 

 Wonderfully productive. Our crops for three years almost double 

 the yield per acre of any other variety we have grown, early or 

 late. Incredible as this may seem, it is readily accounted for by 

 the fact that the stalks bear from 3 to 5 ears each, and the growth 

 being dwarf— about 4 feet— admits of a very close 

 planting. Pkt., 10 cts.; pint, 20 cts.; quart, 35 cts.; 

 gaUon, $1.25; peck, $2.35; bushel, $9.00. 



Extra Early Evergreen. For many years the Stow- 

 ell's Evergieen has been the most popular sweet corn. 

 A oTower knowing this has repeatedly made selec- 

 tions for earliness, and the result is the "Extra Early 

 Evergreen." It ripens about ten days earlier and 

 produces ears a trifle shorter than the Stowells but 

 the quality is equally as good. It is ^ splendid va^ 

 riety to come in between the early and Me sorts and 

 is destined to become popular as the Stowells Ever- 

 green. Pkt., 10 cts.; pint, 20 cts.; quart 

 iaUon, $1.25; peck, $2.35; bushel, $9.00 

 per dozen.

 dudng a large ear and a small-sized cob, which fills 

 out "o the end perfectly. Pkt., 10 cts.; pm , 20 cts.,
