Extra Ea rly 

 Varieties 



564. Bolgiano's 

 Extra Early 

 Ideal Sweet 

 Corn. (65 days.) 



We have never put 

 out any corn that 

 has given more 

 satisfaction to the 

 market gardener 

 than the "Ideal"; 

 it meets his every 

 demand. Extra 

 early, large ears, 

 8 to 10 inches long; 

 has a mild, sweet 

 flavor; very ten- 

 der; vigorous 

 grower, producing 

 a wonderful crop of 

 corn for the early 

 market. Can be 

 planted as early as 

 the Extra Early 

 Adams. Thousands 

 of t r u c k e r s and 

 market gardeners 

 are using the 

 "Ideal" for early 

 planting. Pkt. 10 

 cts.; pt. 30 cts.; qt. 

 55 cts., postpaid; 

 pk. $1.75; bu. $6.00, 

 not postpaid. 



Golden Cross Bantam. ("Best in Garden" Vari- 

 ety.) (75 days.) This new Com is bred for wilt resist- 

 ance, high yield and superlative quality. Matures 4 to 

 5 days later than Golden Bantam. Stalks 6 feet high 

 and usually bear 2 ears having 10 to 14 rows of light 

 golden yellow kernels. Pkt. 10 cts«; pt. 35 cts.; qt. 60 

 cts., postpaid; pk. $2.80; bu. $10.00. 



« 559. Golden Bantam. (70 days.) One of the sweet- 

 est corns grown. It is a dwarf, medium early variety of ex- 

 ceptionally 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 pre- 

 tentious on account of its excessive cropping ability on a 

 given area, and to all because of its superb quality and lus- 

 cious satisfying flavor. Pkt. 10 cts.; pt. 30 cts.; qt. 55 cts., 

 postpaid; pk. $1.85; bu. $6.50. 



560. Bolgiano's Extra Early Harvester. (65 days.)) 



This is the best Extra Early White Sugar Corn that has ever 

 been placed on the market. It is several days earlier than the 

 "Golden Bantam," sweeter flavor, ears larger and pure white 

 in color. It is a rapid grower, medium in height, large yielder, 

 3 to 4 ears to the stalk, 6 to 7 inches long. A wonderful corn 

 for early home use. Pkt. 10 cts.; pt. 30 cts.; qt. 55 cts., post- 

 paid; pk, $1.75; bu. $6.50. 



10559. Bolgiano's New Cream and Honey. (60 days.) 



Although it is a pure and true Sugar Corn it is so wonderfully 

 hardy it will stand the hard knocks of early Spring. Rich, 

 delicious, sweet flavor, beyond comparison with any other 

 Sugar Corn; earliest of all Extra Early Table Corns, of won- 

 derfully fine quality. Grows 4 feet high; ears 5 to 8 inches 

 long and 2 to 3 ears to the stalk; can be planted quite close in 

 the row. Pkt. 10 cts.; pt. 30 cts.; qt. 55 cts., postpaid; pk.

 destined to become popular. Pkt. 10 cts.; pt. 30 cts.; qt. 55 

 cts., postpaid; pk. $1.75; bu. $6.00.
