105 CREAM-O-GOLD 



(See Color Plate, Page 22.) 



The Sweetest, Tenderest and 



Daintiest Sweet Corn. Introduced 



by Us in 1937 as X-100. 



A vegetable de luxe. The ideal for 

 which we have striven — a sweet 

 corn of such refinement that it must 

 appeal to the most fastidious. 



Its luscious sweetness is the result 

 of many years of breeding; its un- 

 usual tenderness is due to the gossa- 

 mer-like casing of the kernels; its 

 daintiness to the pencil-like thickness 

 of the cob; its attractive appearance 

 to its creamy yellow color. 



The plants are very uniform, about 

 SM feet high. Many stalks produce 

 two full-sized ears of 8 to 10 rows of 

 kernels that are about 8 to 9 inches 

 long. It matures in 88 days. 

 Price, pkt., 25c; J^ lb., 60c; lb., $1.00; 

 2 lbs., $1.90; 6 lbs., $5.40. 



119 GOLDEN BANTAM 



(See Color Plate, Page 22.) 

 Small Ear of Remarkable Flavor 



Golden Bantam is a dwarf, medium early 

 variety of exceptionally good quality and 

 reliability. It has become one of the most 

 popular varieties in our list. 



Price, pkt., 15c; Yi lb., 25c; lb., 45c; 

 2 lbs., 85c; 6 lbs., $2.40; 12 lbs., $4.25. 



122 GOLDEN SUNSHINE 



The value of this variety lies in the fact 

 that it matures several days in advance of 

 the well-known Golden Bantam. 



The ears are very compact, about the 

 same size as Golden Bantam, but more 

 refined in appearance, having from 10 to 

 12 rows of grains. It is a very rapid 

 grower. 



Price, pkt., 10c; Yi lb., 25c; lb., 45c; 

 2 lbs., 85c; 6 lbs., $2.40; 12 lbs., $4.25. 



123 GOLDEN COUNTRY 

 GENTLEMAN 



It Delights Both Eye and Palate. 



(See Color Plate, Page 22.) 



Its appearance is most inviting- — the color 



being a glistening glowing, golden yellow. 



The ears are not quite as large as white 

 Country Gentleman but the remarkable 

 depth of kernel characterizing the orig- 

 inal variety is fully retained in the new, 

 as well as the ball-shaped ends of the 

 kernels. It matures a few days earlier 

 than the white. 



Price, pkt., 15c; Y% lb., 30c; lb., 50c; 

 2 lbs., 95c; 6 lbs., $2.75; 12 lbs., $4.75. 



21 GOLDEN ROD (Henderson's) 



The result of a cross between Stowell's 

 Evergreen and Golden Bantam, and 

 proves to be a happy and complete blend- 

 ing of each sort. The ear is just large 

 enough for ordinary consumption. The 

 plants are 6 to 7 feet high, and bear on 

 each stalk, at a convenient height, two 

 ears packed with delicious golden grains of 

 appetizing flavor. 



Price, pkt., 15c; Yi lb., 25c; lb., 45c; 

 2 lbs., 85c; 6 lbs., $2.40; 12 lbs. $4.25. 



116 METROPOLITAN (Henderson's) 



The pure white ears are from 8 to 9 inches long and all set 

 low. They are 10 to 12 rowed, well filled to the tip with large, 

 deep grains, which are very tender. It is not merely sweet, but 

 possesses that exquisite richness so well known in the larger and 

 later sorts. 



Price, pkt., 10c; ]/ 2 lb., 25c; lb., 45c; 2 lbs., 85c; 6 lbs., $2.40! 

 12 lbs., $4.25.

127 POCAHONTAS (Henderson's) 



The plant is of dwarf habit and very robust. The ears are snow 

 white, of good size and are always well filled, having no gaps be- 

 tween the rows. The flavor is excellent. 



Price, pkt., 10c; y 2 lb., 25c; lb., 45c; 2 lbs., 85c; 6 lbs., $2.40; 

 12 lbs., $4.25. 



132 SUGARSWEET (Henderson's) 



Superlatively Sweet — A Delicious Morsel 



This is one of the earliest varieties. The dainty snow-white ears 

 grow to a length of 5 to 6 inches, and each ear has an ample stem 

 or handle, which should be left on when cut, so that when served 

 at the table the ear will be more convenient to hold. 



The dwarf size of 4 feet enables the suburbanite to raise more 

 corn on the same space of ground. It is one of the very few 

 varieties that will thrive well in city backyards. 



Price, pkt., 15c; Y 2 lb., 30c; lbs., 50c; 2 lbs., 95c; 6 lbs., $2.75. 



107 COUNTRY GENTLEMAN (Henderson's) 



The Most Delicious Sweet Corn in the World — Plump, 

 Pearly-white, Milky Kernels, Fairly Melting in the Mouth. 



This corn has become justly famous all over the United States and 

 in some foreign countries as well. It is at once the delight of 

 the epicure and a luxury within the reach of everybody. 



It is of nectar-like sweetness, luscious, tender and milky, and 

 remains "in the milk" longer than other Sweet Corn. The ears 

 measure 8 to 9 inches in length, and the plant is very prolific, 

 often producing three ears to a stalk. It is a slow-maturing 

 variety and arrives at full perfection just in time to succeed 

 the earlier varieties. 



Price, pkt., 10c; Yi lb., 25c; lb.. 40c; 2 lbs.. 75c; 6 lbs., $2.00; 

 12 lbs., $3.75. 



130 STOWELL'S EVERGREEN 



The Best Late Variety 



Long recognized everywhere as a standard variety, both for 

 home use and market, and is a general favorite. The ears are 

 of a large size, grains deep, exceptionally 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. 



Price, pkt., 10c; Y 2 lb., 25c; lb., 40c; 2 lbs., 75c; 6 lbs., $2.00; 

 12 lbs., $3.75. 



101 BLACK MEXICAN 



Medium early, bearing 



8-inch ears. Well filled 



with large kernels, which, 



paradoxically, though 



black when ripe, are 



white when "green" and 



then exceptionally sweet. 

 Price, pkt., 10c; Y 2 lb.. 



25c; lb., 45c; 2 lbs., 85c; 



6 lbs., $2.40.
