HENDERSON'S TESTED SEEDS FOR MARKET GARDENERS. 





HSHHUH 



Popular Market Garden Varieties of 

 Henderson's World Famous Sweet Corn 



Command the Highest Prices on all Markets 



HENDERSON'S COUNTRY GENTLEMAN 



This is always in great demand for hotel or fancy local trade, 

 where its superb quality commands top prices. It is of nectar- 

 like sweetness, luscious, tender and milky, and remains "in the 

 milk" longer than other Sweet Corn. The ears measure 8 to 

 9 inches in length, and the plant is very prolific, often producing 

 three ears to a stalk. It is a slow-maturing variety and arrives 

 at full perfection just in time to succeed the earlier varieties. 

 Our stock is just as good as when we first introduced it. Price, 

 qt.[65c, pk. $2.50, bush. $9.00. 



EARLY CHAMPION 



This standard sort has stood the test of many years of culti- 

 vation. It is grown extensively both by private and market 

 gardeners as it comes into bearing immediately after the early 

 sorts. It is a sure cropper, ears are medium to large in size, pure 

 white. Price, qt. 65c, pk. $2.50, bush. $9.00. 



GOLDEN BANTAM 



While the individual plant and ear are small, it may be planted 

 so much closer than the larger-eared sorts, so that the net product 

 from a given area is about the same as of ordinary sorts. The 

 plant is about 5 feet high, medium early, but of exceptionally 

 good quality. In all respects it is a gem — in size of plant, ear 

 and grain. Price, qt. 55c, pk. $2.50, bush. $9.00. 



STOWELL'S EVERGREEN 



Grown almost exclusively for the last marketing. It is one of 

 the best known sorts, and is valued not only for its sureness in 

 crop production, but for its great popularity on the market and 

 remarkably good quality. Our strain is excellent in every 

 respect. Price, qt. 55c, pk. $2.50, bush. $9.00. 



WHIPPLES EARLY YELLOW 



This variety is fully as early as Golden 

 Bantam, but the ears are much larger, 

 being as a rule twelve rowed, and very 

 compact. It is well suited for market 

 growers who want a yellow variety 

 with larger ears than the Golden 

 Bantam. Price, qt. 60c, pk. $3.00, 

 bush. $10.00. 



HENDERSON'S METROPOLITAN 



A Great Favorite on the Market. Ready Right After the Extra 

 Early Sorts 



Metropolitan is just about a week later than the very""early 

 sorts, and is equal in quality to the main crop varieties. It 

 grows about 5H ft. high. The ears are 9 inches long, 10 to 12 

 rowed, well filled to the tip with large grains of excellent quality. 

 It is a sturdy plant and grows easily. The ears have a liberal 

 husk, which insures a fresh condition on reaching the market. 

 Price, qt., 55c, pk., $2.50, bush. $9.00. 



GOLDEN SUNSHINE 



This variety is a few days earlier than Golden Bantam, and 

 therefore a valuable sort for early marketing. The ears are from 

 seven to eight inches in length, and are ten or twelve rowed, well 

 filled to the tip, and very prolific; many stalks bearing two good 

 ears. Price, qt. 70c, pk. $4.00, bush. $15.00. 



HENDERSON'S GOLDEN COUNTRY 

 GENTLEMAN 



We have only offered this variety at retail up to the present 

 time, owing to the small supply of seed available. This year will we 

 have enough seed to enable us to offer Golden Country Gentleman 

 to our Market Garden trade. Judging from our experience 

 with it and reports from our critical private trade we are confident 

 this variety will be a winner for the Market trade as well. 



Golden Country Gentleman is a cross between the white 

 Country Gentleman and a sweet yellow variety, therefore the 

 quality is a great improvement on the white variety; noted as 

 that is for its nectar-like sweetness. It is quite a prolific variety, 

 most stalks producing two good ears. Price, qt. 80c, pk. $5.00, 

 bush. $18.00. 



The American Public is Sweet Corn hungry. Grow enough — extend the season to its limits by growing early 



medium and late sorts.
