HICKORY KING WHITE CORN 



SUGAR CORN. -Continued. 



Keiulel's Karly <;iant SwtM't Corn.— We find 

 i: po.-.~^-^c.- gre:u nur;:. h :.- very early, being fit for 

 use in tM day> from planting. The ears are large. 8 to 

 lO inches in length, the majori-ty having 12 rows to a 

 cob. Kernels pure w-hite, very sweet, and tender. It 

 is also a most productive \-ariety, and will prove a 

 valuable acquisition to every home or market gar- 

 dener who plants it. Pint, 10 cents; quart, 15 cents; 

 gallon. 50 cents; peck, 75 cents; bushel, $2.50. 



Extra l-^rly Kvergreen. — For many years the 

 Stowell's Evergreen has been the most popular Sweet 

 Com. A grower knowing this has repeatedly made 

 selections tor earliness, and the result is the " Extra 

 Early Evergreen." It ripens about 10 days earlier 

 and produces ears a trifle shorter than the Stowell's, 

 but the quality is equally as good. It is a splendid 

 variety to come in between the early and late sorts, 

 and is destined to become as popular as the Stowell's 

 Evergreen. Pint. 10 cents; quart. 15 cents; gallon, 50 

 cents ; peck, 75 cents ; bushel, S2.50. 



Stowell's Evergreen Sugar.— This is not only 

 the most celebrated, but the most popular of all the 

 varieties, although not an early sort. It is, without 

 any exception, the best for table use of the entire lot, 

 although quite late. Some may observe they have 

 tried it and found it not equal to the ordinary sugar. 

 To such we say you have not had the pure stock, as 

 no variety degenerates so quickly, without the grower 

 is exceedingly careful. We have very frequently ob- 

 served samples sent out by some seed establishments 

 as Stowell's Evergreen, that were composed of several 

 varieties, caused by being grown in the vicinity. Pint, 

 10 cents; quart. 15 cents; gallon, 40 cents; peck, 75 

 cents; bushel, S2.50; per dozen, 50 cents. 



Stabler's Pedigree. —Grains deep, straight- 

 rowed : bear two handsome ears to the stalk ; a few 

 days later than Stabler's Early, with ears larger and 

 sweeter. Pint, 10 cents; quart, 15 cents; gallon, 50 

 cerHs; peck, 75 cents; bushel, $2.50; per dozen, 40 

 cents. 



I^arge Late 3Iaminoth Sugar Com.— The 

 largest of all the sugar \-arieties, producing perfect 

 ears of immense size, having from 12 to 16 rows. A 

 fine market variety, and follows the New England 

 eight-rowed sugar in ripening; sweet and delicious. 

 Pint, 10 cents; quart, 15 cents; gallon, 50 cents; peck, 

 75 cents; bushel, S2.50; per dozen, 50 cents. 



Countrj- Gentlemen'.s Sweet Com.— The 

 deep, shoe-peg kernels are placed irregularly, but com- 

 pactly upon the cob. It is very prolific, generally 

 bearing three to five ears to the stalk, and matures a 

 little before Stowell's Evergreen, T)eing s-vveeter and 

 more sugary to the taste even than that well-known 

 sundard of quality. Pint, 10 cents; quart, 15 cents; 

 gallon. 50 cents ; peck, 75 cents ; bushel, $2.50. 

 RICE POP CORN FOR POPPING 

 OR SEED. 



A very handsome variety ; ears short ; kernels long, 

 pointed; very prolific; no variety of Pop Corn is su- 

 perior to this for popping. 10 cents per pound. 



FIELD CORN 



(I ELI>-K<>R\.) 



Mastodon Early Dent Corn.— It is the largest 

 eared early Dent Corn and the largest grain of any 

 early Dent Corn. It grows strong, rank, quick, and 

 makes the finest appearing shelled corn of them all, 

 being purely Dent, of two shades of white and yellow. 

 Pint. 10 cents: quart. 15 cents; gallon, 30 cents; peck, 

 50 cents; bushel. $1.25. 



Choice .White Dent Corn.— This is one of the 

 most prolific large-eared corns on the market. The 

 grains are deep and narrow, with an exceedingly 

 small cob. Where white field corn is wanted this is 

 the kind that wc recommend. Pint, 10 cents ; quart, 

 15 cents; gallon. 30 cents ; peck, 50 cents ; bushel, $1.25. 



"Hiclcory King" White Corn.— This white 

 field corn has the largest grains, with the smallest cob 

 of any white corn. So large are the grains and so 

 small the cob that on an ear broken in half a single 

 grain will almost completely cover the cob section. 

 Of strong growth, the stalks take a firm hold in the 

 ground and stand upright, resisting severe storms. It 

 yields splendid crops on light soiJ, and is undoubtedly 

 the best and most productive white field corn for the 

 South. Pint, 10 cents; quart, 15 cents; gallon, 30 

 cents; peck, 50 cents; bushel, $1.25. 



Iowa Gold Mine. — A selected strain, ripening 

 only a few days later than the Pride of the North. 

 Ears of good size and symmetrical. Color of bright, 

 golden yellow; grain very heavy; cob small, drying 

 out quickly when ripe; from 70 pounds of ears 60 to 

 62 pounds of shelled corn may be obtained, of highest 

 market quality. Pint, 10 cents; quart, 15 cents; gal- 

 lon, 30 cents; peck, 50 cents; bushel, $1.25. 



Mammoth Golden IJeaut.y Corn. — New va- 

 riety; has the largest ears of any loo-day corn. It 

 out-yields any and all other corn. The increased yield 

 repays the cost of the seed niany times over. Growers 

 should make sure of getting the largest yield and most 

 handsome grain to meet the competition of the times 

 and secure the highest prices. Ears usually average 

 from 9 to 12 inches long and from 20 to 30 rows on a 

 cob, some of the sUlks bearing from 2 to 3 ears. Then 

 why use your poor stock any longer? It attracts a 

 great dealof attention. Pint, 10 cents ; quart, 15 cents ; 

 gallon, 30 cents ; peck, 50 cents ; bushel, $1.25. 



Improved Early Learning Com.— The Leam- 

 ing is the earliest Yellow Dent Corn in cultivation, 

 ripening in from 90 to 100 days from the time of 

 planting. Its extreme earliness, productiveness, and 

 fine quality have made it very popular with those in 

 the localities w^here the seasons are short. It produces 

 from 65 to 90 bushels to the acre, in accordance with 

 the quality of the soil. The ears and grains are of 

 medium size. Pint, 10 cents; quart, 15 cents; peck, 

 50 cents; bushel, $1.25; 5 bushels at $1.20.
