 table. The stalks grow about four feet In

 ears to each stalk. The ears are 5 to 6 

 inches in length. The flavor is exception-

 Evergreen and resembling it in every re- 

 spect, except that the stalk Is about one 

 foot shorter, more closely jointed, and that 

 It will mature fully 10 days earlier. It Is 

 a splendid variety to come In between the 

 early and the late sorts. There is no better 

 variety than the Early Evergreen for the 

 market gardener who wishes to get the 

 cream of the trade. It will no doubt be- 

 come a popular variety. Per pkt. 5 cts., %

BANTAM EVERGREEN. A cross between 

 Golden Bantam and Stowell's Evergreen. 

 The Bantam sweetness is retained and of 

 much larger size. A hull thinner than 

 Bantam, increases the eating quality vast- 

 ly. In season it comes in as a second ear- 

 ly about midsummer. A most important 

 point in favor of Bantam Evergreen Is, 

 that it holds its quality longer after being 

 picked than any other variety we have 

 tested. The kernels are plump and lull, 

 with exceedingly tender skin, and pro- 

 nounced by all who have tried it, as the 

 sweetest corn they ever ate. As a market 

 variety it has many points in its favor, 

 for its large size, earliness, thin hull and 

 its tender sweetness.. Per pkt. 5 cts., 1^

 press, ^2 pk. $1.50, pk. $3.00.
