These collections are made up of 5 varieties to supply the home table continu- 

 ously throughout the season with tender, milky and delicious Sweet Corn. They 

 are numbered to indicate their respective seasons of maturing. The selection is 

 made primarily for quality and may be perfectly relied on not only in this respect, 

 but also as regards its continuity. The entire collection should be planted at one 

 time, otherwise the succession will be broken. These collections are put up in 

 three sizes — packet, pint and quart, and will be found of great convenience, 

 especially to those unfamiliar with varieties.

PLANT FOR EXTRA EARLY SWEET CORN 



HENDERSON'S POCAHONTAS (No.i) 



Pocahontas was obtained by the careful, painstaking effort of a New York truck 

 gardener to whom earliness meant all, and his work was eminently successful. The plant 

 is of dwarf habit and very robust. The ears are of good size and are always well filled, 

 having no gaps between the rows — a common fault of many early sorts. The flavor is 

 excellent for so early a variety. While we recommend it primarily as a first early sort, 

 it has been found to have great value for the latest crops, as it may be planted in this 

 vicinity as late as July 15th, thus prolonging the season for Sweet Corn to its utmost 

 length. (See cut.) Price, 10c. pkt., 20c. pt., 35c. qt., $1.30 for 4 qts., $2.50 peck. 



"After trying many other varieties of Sweet Corn, I purchased seed of your Pocahontas Sweet Corn. 

 I find that it beats all others in earliness, productiveness and selling qualities. I sold Corn in our town 

 before any other market gardener." LAWRENCE GEMPERLE, Mars, Pa.

EARLY CHAMPION (No. 2) 



An old and thoroughly tested variety. We include it in this 

 collection because it is particularly well adapted to continue the 

 line of succession from the earlier sorts. It is admirably adapted 

 to private use in every respect, producing liberal sized ears at a 

 comparatively early season, excellent in quality, and a safe and 

 sure cropper. Price, 10c. pkt, 20c. pt, 30c. qt, $1.10 for 4 qts., 

 $2.00 peck. 



PLANT FOK MEDIUM EARLY SWEET CORN 



HENDERSON'S HIAWATHA (No. 3) 



Earliness, productiveness and delicious quality are the pronounced 

 merits of Hiawatha Sweet Corn. 



The ears, about eight inches long, are compactly filled with long, 

 plump, pearly-white kernels, lusciously tender, creamy and sweet. 

 Another valuable feature is the length of time the ears remain "in 

 the milk, " the thick husk giving splendid protection. The plant grows 

 about five feet high, bearing no less than two ears to a stalk, very 

 uniform in shape and size. It is ready to use in from nine to ten 

 weeks from planting, and can be confidently recomended as a perfect 

 Sweet Corn for the home table Price, 10c. pkt ; 20c. pt., 35c. qt, 

 $1.30 for 4 qts., $2.50 peck. 



PLANT FOK MID-SEASON SWEET CORN 



THE "HENDERSON" (No. 4) 



This ideal Corn is ready for the table about a week before the 

 latest sorts. The "Henderson" Corn produces uniformly large, thick 

 ears, compactly filled from butt to tip with long, milky white kernels 

 of luscious tenderness. The delicious quality is retained for a much 

 longer time than with most Corns. The plant is luxuriant, healthy 

 and vigorous. (See cut.) Price, 10c. pkt., 20c. pt., 30c. qt., $1.10 for 

 4 qts., $2.00 peck. 



PLANT FOR LATE SWEET CORN 



STOWELL'S EVERGREEN (No. 5) 



Long recognized everywhere as a standard variety, both for home 

 use and market, and is a general favorite. The ears are of a large 

 size, grains deep, exceptionally tender and sugary, and have the 

 advantage of remaining longer in the green state than any other. 

 Price, 10c. pkt, 20c. pt, 30c. qt, $1.10 for 4 qts., $2.00 peck.
