CUSTOMERS PRAISE "CONTINUITY" COLLECTIONS 



"Last year I planted Henderson's 'Continuity' collection of sweet 

 corn, and had corn before my neighbor' s early corn was near ready; I 

 also had corn to sell after they had used their early corn." ' . ' 



N. E. THORPE, Schoolcraft, Mich. 

 "The Henderson special Collection was a great success." 



EDWARD MARTIN, Metarie Ridge, Iowa. 



"The sweet corn was very fine and good. You may advertise my name 

 as telling of the best results I ever had." 



I. K. WARREN, New Hartford, Conn. 



"The Sweet Corn I got from you last year was fine. I had the best 

 corn in this neighborhood." j 5, PARKS, Columbus, Ohio. 



"It is with- the greatest pleasure that I am sending you a photograph 

 of my 'Continuity Corn' field. We picked our first Pocahontas on 

 Aug. 10th and finished up with Stowell's Evergreen on Oct. 14th. The 

 latter was of enormous size. 'The plants stood nine feet high with large, 

 twenty-row ears and kernels ■half-inch deep. 



"The flavor of all the five sorts was delicious. We had Sweet Corn 

 on oiir table three times a day for over ~a month. 



"We grew only five rows of each kind fifty feet long, which was enough 

 to supply our family and some of our friends."

PLANT FOR LATiE SWEET CORN 



StowelFs Evergreen 



Long recognized everywhere as a stan- 

 dard variety, both for home use and 

 market, and is a general favorite. The 

 ears are of a large size, grains deep, excep- 

 tionally tender and sugary, and have the 

 advantage of remaining longer in the green 

 state than any other. Our stock has been 

 carefully grown and selected to avoid the 

 tendency to a shorter grain and deteriora- 

 tion in the evergteen character of this best 

 of all late sorts. Price, 10c. pkt, 40c. pt., 

 70c. qt., $2.50 for Half Peck 



"Wish you could see our corn grown from 

 your Stowell's Evergreen Corn seed. It is the 

 finest on the market."
