SUGAR CORN— Continued. 



KeadeTs fiartj Giant Sweet Corn.— We find 



it possesses great merit. It is very early, being tit tor 

 use in 60 days from planting. The ears are large, S 

 to ic . gth, the majority having ia rows to 



a cob. Kernels pure white, very sweet, and tender. 

 It is also a most productive variety, and will prove a 

 '.e acquisition to every home or market gar- 

 dener who plants it. Pint, io cents ; quart, 20 rents ; 

 <, 90 cents; bushel - 



Extra I'.atlv Eve r g reen . For many years the 



Stow-. has been the most popular Sweet 



Corn. A grower knowing this has repeatedly made 



selections for earliness, and the result is the 'Extra 



- •■en." It ripens al>out ten days earlier 



and produc. - shorter than the Stowell s, 



but the quality is equally as good. It is a splen- 



riety to come in between the early and late 



ed to become as popular a> the 



en. Pint, 10 cents ; quart, 20 



:.. so cents : peck, 90 cents ; bushel, 



StowelTs Evergreen Sugar. — This is not only 



the most celebrated, but the most popular of all the 

 varieties, although not an early sort. It is, without any 

 exception, the best for table use of the entire lot, al- 

 though quite late. Some may observe they have tried 

 round it not equal to the ordinary sugar. To 

 such we say you have not had the pure stock, as no 

 variety degenerates so quickly, without the grower 

 is exceedingly careful. We have very frequently ob- 

 served samples sent out by some seed establishments 

 reen that were composed of sev- 

 eral varieties, caused by being grown in the vicinity. 

 Pint. 10 cents : quart, so cents ; gallon 50 cents ; 

 peck, 90 cents : bushel, 5325; per dozen, 40 cents; 

 per hundred. 52.50. 



StaMer'fl Pedigree.— Grains deep, straight- 

 rowed; bear two handsome ears to the stalk ; a few 

 days later than Stabler s Early, with ears larger and 

 sweeter. Pint, 10 cents ; quart, 20 cents; gallon, 50 

 cents : peck, 90 cents ; bushel, 53.25 ; per dozen, 40 

 cents. 



Large Late Mammoth Sugar Corn.— The 



largest of all the sugar varieties, producing perfect 

 earsof immense size, having from twelve to sixteen 

 rows. A fine market variety, and follows the New- 

 England eight-rowed sugar in ripeniug ; sweet and 

 delicious. Pint, 15 cents; quart, 20 cents ; gallon, 50 

 cents ; peck, 90 ; bushel, 53.25 : per dozen, 45 cents ; 

 per hundred ; fa. $o. 



Counter] Gentlemen's Sweel Corn.— The 



deep, shoe-peg kernels are placed irregularly, but 

 compactly, upon the cob. It is very prolific, gener- 

 ally bearing three to five ears to the stalk, and ma- 

 tures a little before Stowell's Evergreen, being 

 sweeter and more sugary to the taste even than that 

 well-known standard of quality. Pint, 10 cents ; 

 quart, 20 cents: gallon, 50 cents ; peck,$i ; bushel, $4. 



Black Mexican Sugar.— The most tender and 

 sweetest of the sugar varieties. Ear, 5 cents ; pint, 

 10 cents : quart, 20 cents. 



RICE POP CORN FOR POPPING OR SEED. 



A very handsome variety ; ears short ; kernels long, 

 pointed ; very prolific ; no variety of Pop Corn is su- 

 perior to this for popping. 10 cents per pound, 

 shelled ; by mail, 17 cents per pound. 



FIELD CORN. 



FELD-KORM. 



Mastodon l.aily l>ont Coin.— It is the largest 

 eared early Dent Corn and the largest grain of any 

 early Dent Corn. It grows strong, rank, quick, and 

 makes the finest appearing shelled corn of them all, 

 being purely Dent, of two shades of white and yel- 

 lew. Pint. 10 cents ; quart, 15 cents ; gallon, 30 

 cents ; peck, 50 cents , bushel, $ 1.25. 



< hoice White I >ont Corn.— This is one of the 

 most prolific large-eared corns on the market. The 

 grains are deep and narrow, with an exceedingly 

 Small cob. Where white field corn is wanted this is 

 the kind that we recommend. Pint, 10 cents; quart, 

 15 cents ; gallon, 30 cents; peck, 50 cents ; bushel, 

 51.25. 



"Hickorj King" White Corn.— This white 

 field corn has the largest grains, with the smallest 

 cob of any white corn. So large are the grains and so 

 sorall the cob that on an ear broken in half a single 

 grain will almost completely cover the cob section. 

 1 't' Strong growth, the stalks take a firm hold in the 

 ground and stand upright, resisting severe storms. 

 It yields splendid crops on light soil, and is undoubt- 

 edly the best and most productive white field corn for 

 the South. Pint, 10 cents ; quart, 15 cents ; gallon, 

 30 cents ; peck, 50 cents ; bushel, 51.25. 



Iowa Cold Mine. A selected strain, ripening 

 only a few days later than the Pride of the North. 

 Ears of good size and symmetrical. Color a bright, 

 golden yellow ; grain very heavy ; cob small, drying 

 out quickly when ripe ; from 70 pounds of ears 60 to 62 

 pounds of shelled corn may be obtained, of highest 

 market quality. Pint, 10 cents ; quart, 15 cents ; 

 gallon, 30 cents ; peck, 50 cents ; bushel, Ji.»5. 



Mammoth Golden Beauty Corn.— New va- 

 riety ; has the largest ears of any 100-day corn. It 

 outyieldsanv and all other corn. The increased yield 

 repays the cost if the seed many times over. Grow- 

 ers -hould make sure of getting the largest yield and 

 most handsome grain to meet the competition of the 

 times and secure the highest prices. Ears usually 

 average from nine to twelve inches long and from 

 twenty to thirty rows on a cob, some of the stalks 

 bearing from two to three ears. Then why use your 

 poor stock any longer? It attracts a great deal of at- 

 tention. Pint, 10 cents; quart, 15 cents ; gallon, 30 

 cents ; peck, 50 cents ; bushel, $1.25. 



Improved Early Learning Corn.— The Learn- 

 ing is the earliest Yellow Dent Corn in cultivation, 

 ripening in from ninety to one hundred days from the 

 time of planting. Its extreme earliness, productive- 

 ness, and fine quality has made it very popular with 

 those in the localities where the seasons are short. 

 It produces from sixty-five to ninety bushels to the 

 acre, in accordance with the quality of the soil. The 

 ears and grains are of medium size. Pint, 10 cents ; 

 quart, 15 cents; Peck, 50 cents; bushel, $1.50; 5 

 bushels at $1.40 ; 10 bushel at 51.30. 



Mortgage Lifter Corn.— Makes two or three 

 very large ears to the stock ; fodder is rank in growth 

 and matures about the middle of September. The 

 name indicates that in productiveness it has few, if 

 any, equals. It is truly a mortgage raiser and should 

 be planted largely. Pint, 10 cents ; quart, 15 cents 

 gallon, 30 cents ; peck, 50 cents ; bushel, J1.25.
