Corn — Second Early — Continued 



1182. Bolgiano's Cream and Honey Sweet Corn. Extremely early, most delicious flavor, excep- 

 tionally fine quality. Should be tried by every wide-awake market gardener and in home garden, where 

 the " best " of everything is enjoyed. 



1256. Howling Mob. Superb long ears of sweetest quality. Stalks are of strong, vigorous growth, 

 4i to 5 feet in height, abundant foliage, and generally produces 2 fine ears to a stalk.

 5 feet high and produce 2 fine ears.

 and covered with very large, white grains of extra quality 



1112. Golden Bantam Corn. This very early, yellow grained Sweet Corn, when in best condition for 

 the table, is remarkably sweet and tender. The stock we offer has been improved by several years of 

 careful selection, and therefore will be found decidedly superior to much that is offered.

 variety, especially in keeping qualities.

General Crop 



1066. Snow White Evergreen Sugar Corn. White as snow and five days earlier than Stowell's 

 Evergreen. Deliciously flavored and as sweet as sugar. Very tender. Each ear has 16 or more rows of 

 long, slender purest white grains. Being Snow-White it is extremely attractive when served on the table. 

 When put up in cans it retains its whiteness and does not have that yellowish tinge of the regular Stowell's 

 Evergreen. Stalks straight and vigorous, 6 to 8 feet high. Ears are uniform, very large and completely filled 

 to the tip. 



1067. Stowell's Evergreen. The most profitable general crop sweet corn. Stalks grow about 8 feet- 

 high with ears from 7 to 9 inches long and from 14 to 16 rows to the ear of deep, white, medium sized 



Country Gentlemen grains of the finest flavored corn. Our strain of this variety is bred to produce two good sized ears to the 

 Corn 



stalk. 



Late Crop 



1065. Country Gentleman Sugar Corn. One of the most delicious Sugar Corns grown. Kernels plump, pearly white, milky 

 and so tender they fairly melt in your mouth. It is deliciously tender, even when a little old. Ears average 8 or 9 inches long.

Culture. Sow curled or pepper grass thickly, in shallow drills, every 2 weeks. 

 It should be cut often and will continue to grow. It is useful for salad and for 

 garnishing. 



520. True Water Cress. Should be sown in damp soil; or if a 

 stream of water can be utilized, they would be much finer. They will 

 thrive well in damp hotbeds. Rightly managed, their culture is very 

 profitable. To obtain early salad it is a good plan to sow with Water 

 Cress Seed a strip 4 inches wide on the upper margin of the hotbed, 

 inside the frame, where it is alwavs cool.
