J. STECKLER SEED CO., LTD., ALMANAC AND 



Southern White Corn in cultivation^ flintier 

 than the Mosby's Prolific; moderately early; 

 cob small grain deeply dented, of pure white 

 color and makes excellent meal. We recom- 

 mend same highly; any one using this corn 

 will not be disappointed. 



Burpee's White Evergreen. The most 

 valuable Sweet Corn ever introduced. It is 

 a high-bred ideal type of Stowell's Ever- 

 green, so long known as the finest main-crop 

 corn — only it is pure white. 



ears as large as 

 and well filled, s

 faction. 



the Champion White Pearl 

 mall red cob. It is the best 

 orn, and always gives satis- 



Champion White Pearl. 



Country Gentleman. A remarkably sat- 

 isfactory and delicious Corn for family use. 

 The ears are good sized and produced in great 

 abundance, many stalks bearing four plump 

 ears. Its long, small, milky kernels are full 

 of sweetness; and as the cob is small, and the 

 corn white and tender, it is sure to please. 



Golden Dent Gourd Seed. A field vari- 

 ety which is very productive at the North. 

 It makes a fine corn South, but has to be 

 planted here several years in succession be- 

 fore it attains perfection, as during the first 

 year the ears are not well covered by the 

 husk, which is the case with all Northern 

 varieties. When selected and planted here 

 for a few years it becomes acclimated and 

 makes an excellent corn, with large, fine 

 ears, grain deep and cob of medium size. 



Early Yellow Canada. A long, eight- 

 rowed variety, very earl}^ and is planted in 

 both the field and garden. It does well here. 



Large White Flint. A very popular vari- 

 ety with gardeners and amateurs. It is 

 planted here for table use principally, but 

 like the Golden Dent, makes an excellent 

 kind for field culture after it has been planted 

 here for two or three years. 



White St. Charles. Our city gardeners' 

 favorite variety, it makes a vigorous stalk, 



White Rockdale Corn. 



Pop Corn. Is one of the smallest varieties 

 of kernel or seeds, cultivated same as field or 

 garden corn, but drilled instead of in hills. 

 Very extensively used for pop corn candy. 

 We are handling the best two varieties 

 known, the Rice and the Pearl, for seed pur- 

 poses or candy manufacturing. 



Improved Yellow Creole. Produces well 

 with little cultivation, is not afifected by 

 drought or by excessive rains; is not in- 

 jured by climbing wet vines at time of its 

 maturitj'^; resists the attacks of the birds in 

 the field. Long yellow ears, filled to the end.
