Peep of Day" 



Ten Days Earlier Than Any 

 Other Sweet Corn 



This remarkable variety is ten days 

 earlier than any other Sweet Corn, has fully- 

 sustained the claims made as to its earli- 

 ness and sweetness. If you plant this 

 corn you will have the first sweet corn of 

 the season. 



"Peep of Day" corn, in addition to its sen- 

 sational earliness, is entirely distinct in ap- 

 pearance and habit of growth. The stalks 

 grow about 4 feet in height. The ears aver- 

 age about 5 inches in length and are of per- 

 fect form, well filled out to the tip. When 

 cooked the corn is exceedingly sweet and 

 sure of the first tender. Market and private gardeners plant- 

 ing this variety will be sure of having the 

 first sweet corn on the market. Everyone 

 welcomes the first sweet corn of the season, 

 and there is a natural strife among garden- 

 ers to realize the best price for the earliest. 

 Per pkt. 5 cts., y 2 pt. 15 cts., 2 for 25 cts., 

 postpaid, by express y 2 pk. 60 cts., pk. $1.15.

Bantam Evergreen Sweet Corn 



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 

 vastly. In season it comes in as a second early 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 full, 

 with exceedingly tender skin, and pronounced 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. 10 cts., 2 pkts. 15 cts., y 2 pt. 20 cts., 2 for 35 cts. 

 postpaid, by express % pk. $1.00, pk. $1.75. , 



WHITE 

 MEXICAN 



Many know the marvelous sweetness of 

 the old Black Mexican Corn. Every one 

 that has tasted this corn likes it, but dis- 

 likes its color. 



The White Mexican possesses all the good 

 qualities of the old Black Mexican, just as 

 sweet with just as fine a flavor without the 

 objectionable color. It has a pure ivory 

 white color, ears large for an early variety. 

 It matures from 4 to 6 days later than the 

 White Cory. When better known it will be- 

 come a popular variety, for its earliness, 

 large ears, sweetness and fine flavor.
