GENERAL AND LATE CROP SUGAR CORN 



BOLGIANO'S LUCKY STRIKE 

 SUGAR CORN 



We know of nothing that gives us greater 

 pleasure this year than the opportunity of in- 

 troducing Lucky Strike Sugar Corn to our 

 friends. We know that many will wish to know 

 all about tliis splendid new variety; will want 

 to know what it is like, and how it got its name. 



As you all realize we are always working in 

 vegetables and searching for something new and 

 better. Thus it was that Mr. "B" 

 while searching for a corn of excep- 

 tional merit to Market Gardeners 

 came upon this splendid variety so un- 

 expectedly that he named it Lucky 

 Strike. 



Lucky Strike matures in about the 

 same season as Stowell's Evergreen. 

 The ear is about as large in diam- 

 eter, but from one to two inches 

 longer. The grains are large and of 

 such an excellent luscious flavor that 

 it wins immediate approval. 

 The entire ear is covered 

 with heavy shucks of such a 

 beautiful dark green color 

 that this variety keeps a uni- 

 versally fresher appearance 

 than others, which makes it 

 command a higher price and 

 quicker sales at market. We 

 are looking for a heavy sale 

 of Lucky Strike this year, 

 and hope that all of our 



friends will put in their orders early, as we feel sure 

 our supply will not last through the season. Pkt. 10 

 pt. 20 cts.; qt. 35 cts.; gal. $1.10; pk. $1.85; bus. $6.50. 



Snow White Evergreen. The most valuable sweet corn 

 for main crop. It has the ideal qualities of the Stowell's 

 Evergreen Corn, only it is pure white, making it the most 

 desirable late corn for market and home gardeners. Pkt. 10 

 cts.; pt. 20 cts.; qt. 35 cts.; gaL $1.00; pk. $1.75; bus. $6.00. 



Shoe Peg, or Ne Plus Ultra. An old standard favor- 

 ite, of fine flavor, deep grains, and good production. Pkt. 10 

 cts.; pt. 20 cts.; qt. 35 cts.; gal. $1.00; pk. $1.75; bus. $6.00. 



Late Mammoth, a late sort on account 

 of its immense size, producing the largest ears 

 of any variety. These measure up to 14 inches 

 in length, and are well filled with large, broad, 

 white kernels, which are sweet, tender and de- 

 licious. Usually there are 16 to 18 rows to the 

 ear. The stalks are very large, about 8 feet 

 high, and productive. Pkt. 10 cts.; pt. 20 cts.; 

 qt. 35 cts.; 4 qts. $1.00; pk. $1.75; bus. $6.00. 

 Ears, $1.00 per doz. 



Stowell's Evergreen. This is 

 not only the most celebrated, but 

 the most popular of all the varieties, 

 although not an early sort. It is, 

 without exception, the best for table 

 use of the entire lot, although quite 

 late. Soine may observe they have 

 tried it and found it not equal to the 

 ordinary sugar. To such we say you 

 have not had the pure stock, as no 

 variety degenerates so quickly, un- 

 less the grower is exceedingly care- 

 ful. Pkt. 10 cts.; pt. 15 cts.; qt. 25 

 cts.; gal. 90 cts.; pk. 

 $1.60; bus. $5.50. Ears, 

 $1.00 per doz. 



Country Gentleman. 



The deep shoe-peg kernels 

 are placed irregularly, but 

 compactly, upon the cob. 

 It is very prolific, gener- 

 ally bearing 3 to 5 ears to 

 the stalk, and matures a 

 little before Stowell's Evergreen, being sweeter and more 

 sugary to the taste even than that well known standard of 

 quality. Pkt. 10 cts.; pt. 20 cts.; qt. 35 cts.; gal. $1.00; pk. 

 $1.75; bus. $6.00. Ears, $1.25 doz. 



Black Mexican Sugar. Very sweet and tender when 

 ready for table; grain is black. Pkt. 10 cts.; pt. 25 cts.; qt. 

 40 cts.; gallon, $1.25; pk. $2.00; bushel, $7.00. 



202. Rice Pop Corn for Popping or Seed. Avery 



handsome variety; ears short; kernels long, pointed; very 

 prolific; no variety of pop corn is superior to this for pop- 

 ping. 15 cts. per lb.; if by mail, 20 cts. per lb., postpaid.

ENDIVE 



One Ounce Will Sow 

 150 Feet of Row. 



Endive is one of the best salads for fall and winter use. Sow for an early 

 supply about the middle of April. As it is used mostly in the fall months, the 

 main sowings are made in June and July. Plant one foot apart each way. 

 When the plant has attained its full size gather up the leaves and tie them by 

 their tips in a conical form. This excludes the light and air from the inner 

 leaves until blanched. 



43. Green Curled. Self-blanching. The best in cultivation. Much 

 more beautiful and ornamental than the old sort. Pkt. 5 and 10 cts.; oz. 

 15 cts.; Yi lb. 30 cts.; lb. $1.00. 



162. White Curled. As the color of the leaves is a light golden yel- 

 low, little or no blanching is required. Very easily grown, and plants may 

 be gathered for use at any time. Pkt. 5 and 10 cts.; oz. 15 cts.; 14 lb. 

 35 cts.; lb. $1.25. 



C37. Escarole, or Broad-Leaved Batavian. Leaves a pale green; 

 requires very little blanching. More productive than green curled. Forms 

 large heads of broad, thick leaves. Pkt. 5 and 10 cts.; oz. 15 cts.; '4 lb. 30 

 cts.; lb. $1.00.
