PLANT FOR EXTRA EARLY 

 SWEET CORN 



Henderson's 



Pocahontas 



127. Pocahontas was obtained by 

 the careful, painstaking effort of a New 

 York truck-gardener to 

 whom earliness meant 

 all, and his work was 

 eminently successful. 

 The plant is of dwarf 

 habit and very robust. 

 The ears are of good 

 size and are always well 

 filled, having no " gaps 

 between the • rows — a 

 common fault of many 

 early sorts. The flavor 

 is excellent for so early 

 a variety. While Vfe 

 recommend it primarily 

 as a first early sort, it 

 has been found to have 

 great value for the latest 

 crops, as it may be 

 planted in this vicinity 

 as late as July 15th, 

 thus prolonging the sea- 

 son for Sweet Corn to 

 its utmost length. (See 

 engraving.) 



Price, 10c. pkt., 40c. 

 pt., 70c. qt., $2.50 for half 

 peck. 



"After trying many varieties 

 of Sweet Corn I believe tha t 

 your Pocahontas beats them all. 

 It excels in earliness and pro- 

 ductiveness."

PLANT FOR EARLY 



SWEET CORN 



116. To get the first crop of really good Sweet Corn, grow 

 Henderson's Metropolitan. There has never been any one vari- 

 ety of Corn besides Metropolitan that combined the essential 

 features of earliness, productiveness and good flavor in a satis- 

 factory degree. In these important characteristics. Metropolitan 

 certainly outclasses any other variety. It is very little later than 

 Cory, which has been the most popular early sort. 



The plant is distinct, being very strong in stalk, growing 5 3^

PLANT FOR MID-SEASON SWEET CORN 



The "Henderson" 



133. This ideal Corn is ready for the table about 

 a week before the latest sorts. The "Henderson" 

 Corn produces uniformly large, thick ears, compactly 

 filled from butt to tip with long, milky white kernels 

 of luscious tenderness. The delicious quality is re- 

 tained for a much longer time than with most Corns. 

 The plant is luxuriant, healthy and vigorous! {See 

 engraving.) Price, 10c. pkt, 35c. pt., 60c. qt., $2.20 

 for half peck. 



"We had splendid results from the 'Henderson' Sweet Corn and 

 all other seeds bought from you last year."

feet in height. The leaves are numerous, narrow and very dark 

 green in color. The ears are from 8 to 9 inches long and aU 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. The best, the largest, the sweetest and the biggest 

 yielder of all Early Sweet Corn. {See engraving.) Price, ISc.
