SIX SWEET CORN SPECIALTIES. 



FIRST OF ALL..— This extra early sort will reach maturity 

 two days to a week sooner than Cory, as testified by thousands 

 of my customers, and 1 can confidently recommend it. It pro- 

 duces not only larger ears than Cory, but more to the stalk, and 

 will prove an especial boon to gardeners who desire to be first 

 in the market. It may be planted quite closely, on account of 

 the comparatively small size of the stalks; the hills say 2 feet by 

 3 feet. Pkt., 10c; pt., 25c; qt.; 4Uc; postpaid. Peck, $1.00; bu., 83.25. 



EARLY SHEFFIELD. — A very promising new extra early 

 sweet corn, a cross between Cory and Adams, and distinctly 

 superior to either parent. It is as hardy as Adams, which is not 

 sweet, and as sweet as Cory, which is less hardy than Adams. It 

 may be planted in the latter part of April, or when the trees be- 

 gin to open their leaves, and will withstand some frost. It is 

 superior to Cory in the fact that it is almost absolutely free from 

 smut, a trouble to which early corns are nearly all liable. The 

 stalk attains a height of five feet, and bears two good sized ears. 

 The grains are in ten or twelve rows, and the ears are large and 

 handsome. The table quality is excellent. I am much pleased 

 in the results of this corn on my trial grounds. Pkt., 10 cts.; 

 pt., 25 cts; qt., 40 cts, postpaid. Peck §1.25; bushel, $4.50. 



MAMMOTH WHITE CORY — A new and promising strain 

 of the Cory type, claimed by the originator to be the largest and 

 best extra early sweet corn. The stalks are of the same size as 

 those of the VY'hite Cob Cory (about 5 feet), but the ears are 

 larger, and there are two or even three ears on each stalk. The 

 grains are in twelve rows, and the ear is symmetrical and hand- 

 some, with no openings between the rows at the base of the ear. 

 Grains large and white, and of remarkably good table quality 

 for such an early sort. The ear is larger than that of any other 

 of the improved Cory corns; in fact, about double the size of the 

 original Cory. This new variety is a good corn for market. 

 Pkt., 10 cts.; pt., 20 cts.; qt., 85 cts., postpaid. Pk., 81.00; bu., £3.25. 



NONE SUCH. — I introduced this fine second early corn in 1892 

 and it has well earned the name it bears. In quality it is deli- 

 cious, and in productiveness unexcelled. Reports from my custo- 

 mers frequently speak of two ears to the stalk, with ears 12 inches 

 long and compactly filled with grains from end to end. It is a 

 red cob variety, and preferred by some people on that account. 

 Buyers are always delighted with it. I recommend as a very sat- 

 isfactory succession my First of All (or Early .Sheffield or Mam- 

 moth White Cory), followed by None Such, with Zig Zag Ever- 

 green for late or main crop. Packet, 10 cents; pint, 25 cents; 

 quart, 40 cents, postpaid. Peck, 81.00; bushel, 83.00. 



ZIG ZAG EVERGREEN.— This comparatively new corn is 

 the sweetest and most tender variety ever introduced, possibly 

 excepting the Shoe Peg types. In season it is medium to late. It 

 matures about 8 days ahead of Stowell's Evergreen. The kernels 

 are shaped like those of Stowell's Evergreen; but the arrange- 

 ment on the cob is entirely different; so peculiar, in fact, as to 

 give the corn its name, as will be understood by reference to the 

 illustration. Two perfect ears to the stalk invariably. It is a 

 most satisfactory variety for amateur or market gardener. Pkt., 

 10 cts.; pt., 25 cts.; qt., 40 cts., postpaid. Peck, 81-00; bushel, S3.00. 



COUNTRY GENTLEMAN OR IMPROVED SHOE PEG.— 

 This is a mid-season corn. Ears of quite large size, and fre- 

 quently three on a stalk. Grains irregularly set on ear. Cob re- 

 markably small, giving great depth to the kernel. For delicious 

 flavor and sweetness I do not know of anything that can sur- 

 pass this variety. I recommend itespecially to private gardeners, 

 or for choice retail trade. Packet, 10 cents; pint, 25 cents; quart, 

 40 cents, postpaid. Peck, 81.00; bushel, 83.00. 



When sweet corn by the pint or quart is ordered by express or 

 freight, 5 cents per pint, or 10 cents per quart may be deducted from 

 prices quoted. Pecks and bushels are sent by freight or express at 

 purchaser's expense.
