Henderson's Astor Sweet Corn 



MATURES QUICKLY— TENDER AND EXTREMELY SWEET 



Briefly, this is a smaller and earlier strain of White Cob Corn. The plant is from 4 to 5 feet high; sturdy in habit and bearing 

 two ears set 18 inches from the ground. These have from 8 to 12 rows of creamy-white grains, arranged in rows so compactly set 

 together that the objectionable space between the rows so characteristic of inferior varieties is entirely eliminated. It has also a 

 capacious husk, which effectually covers every portion of the ear, thus preserving its creamy color perfectly. The whole ear is of a 

 si ze admirably suited for private use — sufficient in quantity, but not too large for the daintiest table. (*See engraving.) Price, 



"5 15c. pkt., 45c. pt., 80c. qt, $3.00 for 4 qts. 



H Golden Bantam Sweet Corn 



A Gem for the Small Garden A Small Ear of Remarkable Quality 



ONE OF THE SWEETEST SUGAR CORNS GROWN 



Golden Bantam is a dwarf medium early variety of exceptionally good quality and reliability. 

 It is rapidly becoming one of the most popular varieties in our list. While the individual 

 plant'and ear are small, it may be planted so much closer than the larger-eared sorts, so that 

 the net product from a given area is about the same as of ordinary sorts. The plant is 

 about 5 feet high, medium early, but of exceptionally good quality. In all respects it is a 

 gem — in size of plant, ear and grain. It is particularly well adapted to small gardens, on 

 account of its small size; to the more pretentious garden on account of its excessive cropping 

 ability on a given area, and to all because of its superb quality and delicious, satisfying 

 flavor. It may be planted to advantage in hills three feet apart each way. If in rows, 

 they should be three feet apart, and the plants standing singly at nine- 

 inch intervals. It is probably the best to use where only one sort is 

 planted, for it succeeds admirably under all conditions. (See engrav- 

 ing.) Price, 15c. pkt., 45c. pt., 80c. qt., $3.00 for 4 qts. 



'I must tell you of our success last season with Golden Bantam Sweet Corn. The 

 season was very bad, and think we were about the only ones in town who had 

 sweet corn." 

 Feb. 24. 1917. Mrs. W. E. HART, Elyria, Ohio. 



"I was delighted with your Golden Bantam Sweet Corn last year. I had 138 

 ears of perfect sweet corn from one packet of seeds." 

 April 2, 1917. Mrs. S. P. MORGAN, Roselle Park, N. J. 



" The Sweet Com I got from you last year was grand. I had the best 

 corn in this neighborhood." 

 April 17. 1916. J. S. PARKS, Columbus. Ohio. 



"Henderson's seeds have always given the best of satisfaction to me. 

 My Golden Bantam Sweet Corn was far superior to my neighbors' who 

 purchased the seed locally." 



CHARLES E. HART, Elmira, N. Y. 



"Our friends think the Golden Bantam Sweet Com the best they ever ale, 

 and it tastes as good as in the East, though the climate here is not considered 

 good for raising corn." 



Miss ELLEN BUTTERFIELD, So. Pasadena, Cal. 



"Our Golden Bantam Sweet Corn from you was a revelation; so succu- 

 lent, lender and sweet. Our whole family soon learned to choose the little 

 cream-colored ears when Corn was served at our table." 



Mrs. C L. PORTER, East Orange, N. J.
