the ears are larger and grain sweeter. It matures 



jp r in from fifty-six to sixty days. The ears are from 



'/ 5 to 7 inches long. Pint, 10c; qt., 20c; gal., 40c;

EXTRA EARLY EVERGREEN. For many years the Stowell's Evergreen has been the 

 mo-: popular sweet corn. A grower knowing this has repeatedly made selections for earli- 

 ness, and the result is the "Extra Early Evergreen." It ripens about ten days earlier and 

 produces ears a trifle shorter than the Stowell's, but the quality is equally as good. Pint, 

 10c; quart, 20c; gal., 50c; peck, 85c; bush., $3.50. Per doz., 40c. By mail, 5c per pt. extra.

 inches in length, the majority having twelve rows to a cob. Pint, lfc; quart, 20c; gal., 

 55c; peck, 90c; bush.. $3.00. By mail, 5c per pt. extra. 



STOWELL'S EVERGREEN SUGAR. 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 ordinary sugar. To such we say you have not had the pure stock, as no va- 

 riety degenerates so quickly, without the grower is exceedingly careful. We have very 

 frequently observed 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, 10c; 

 qt., 20c: pal., 45c; pk., T'c; bush., $2.75; per doz., 40c. By mail, 5c per pt. extra.

 producing ears of immense size, having from 12 to 16 rows. A fine market variety; sweet 

 and delicious Pt., 10c; qt., 20c; gal., 45c; pk., 75c; bu., $3; doz., 50c; by mail, 5c. pt. extra. 

 COUNTRY GENTLEMAN'S SWEET CORN. The deep shoe-peg kernels are placed 

 irregularly, but compactly, upon the cob. It is very prolific, generally bearing three to 

 five ears to the stalk, and matures a little before Stowell's Evergreen, being sweeter and 

 mo-e sugary to the taste even than that well-known standard of quality. Pt., 10c;qt., 20c; 

 . 5c per pt. extra. 

 RICE POP CORN FOR POPPING OR SEED. A very handsome variety; ears short; kernels long, pointed; very 

 prolific; no variety of pop corn :- -uperior to this for popping. 10c per pound. By mail, 8c per lb. extra.
