DE LUE'S GOLDEN GIANT SUGAR CORN 



DE LUE'S GOLDEN GIANT SUGAR CORN is the result of fourteen years of selection from the product of the Howling Mob 

 crossed with Golden Bantam and combines all the good points of both parents. Because of its excellent qualities it was awarded the 

 only medal given by the Massachusetts Horticultural Society in 67 years, and has since been given three first prizes by the same society. 



The stalks grow 4V2 feet to 6 feet tall and very near the ground; about one-third are purple in stalk leaf and husk. They carry two 

 or three good ears, 7-9 inches long; cob of small diameter, with 12-20 rows of long, deep kernels of deep orange color. The husk is very 

 heavy, affording the end protection from worm and bird. 



Customers of the last three years report that it is the sweetest and most tender and juicy of all sweet corns, and that it is in some 

 cases one to two weeks earlier than Bantam, besides being three times as large. 



It excells all other early varieties in size, productiveness and quality, and all the late varieties in quality and early maturity. 



It is the one corn for the home or market gardener who wants the greatest amount of highest quality corn in the shortest period of 

 time from the smallest piece of land. 



Our seed is grown and packed by the originator. Price — 2 oz., 15c. 4 oz., 25c. 8 oz., 40c. 16 oz., 50c.
