 ity, sweet and of delicious flavor. Extreme- 

 ly valuable to market gardeners for first

MAMMOTH WHITE CORY. This strain is 

 as early as the original Cory. The ears are 

 12-rowed, much larger in size, white cobbed. 

 No other Sweet Corn will find ready sale, 

 as this is king of the market, for no other 

 variety can compete with it as an extra 

 early, and thus the market gardener who 

 raises it monopolizes the cream of the early 

 trade. Per pkt. 5 cts., V 2 pt. 12 cts., 2 for

GOLDEN BANTAM. This variety of yellow 

 grained Sweet Corn is one of the richest in 

 flavor of any corn grown. Of extreme 

 hardiness, can be planted earlier than any 

 other true sweet corn, and will then pro- 

 duce the earliest supply of ears for the 

 table. The stalks grow about four feet in 

 height and average about two good 

 ears to each stalk. The ears are 5 to 6 

 inches in length. The flavor is exception- 

 ally rich and sugary, claimed to be the 

 sweetest of all corns. Per pkt. 5 cts., V 2

 press, or freight, % pk. 60 cts., pk. $1.00. 



EARLY CHAMPION. The earliest large 

 Sweet corn. Produces ears ten inches long 

 in 60 days. This variety is, without ques- 

 tion, the earliest large Sweet Corn yet in- 

 troduced, being only a few days later than 

 the first early small sorts. Ears nearly as 

 large as the Mammoth twelve-rowed; pure 

 white kernels, with medium sized white 

 cob; very sweet, tender, and full of milk, 

 yielding from two to three ears to the stalk.

EARLY EVERGREEN. This variety is a se- 

 lection from the Stowell's Evergreen. It 

 possesses every good quality of Stowell's 

 Evergreen and resembling it in every re- 

 spect, except that the stalk is about one 

 foot shorter, more closely jointed, and that 

 it will mature fully 10 days earlier. It is 

 a splendid variety to come in between the 

 early and the late sorts. There is no better 

 variety than the Early Evergreen for the 

 market gardener who wishes to get the 

 cream of the trade. It will no doubt be- 

 come a popular variety. Per pkt. 5 cts., V 2

 better for green feed, or for curing for win-

 atable that cattle eat every part of the 

 stalks and leaves. Also excellent for soil- 

 ing. Sow in drills or broadcast.
