VEGETABLE SEED SPECIALTIES 



HENDERSON'S ^ ^ 



Plant for EXTRA EARLY Sweet Corn 



WHITE COB CORY. 



An extremely earlj' variety, usually fit to use in 

 from fifty to sixty days from seed sowing. It is 

 not only the earliest of all good sweet corns, but is one 

 of the sweetest and best. It is a sport or selection from 

 the famous Red Cob Cory, which for years held pop- 

 ular favor as the best first early. White Cob Cory 

 retains all of the good qualities of its parent, with the 

 added merits of having a white cob and white kernels, 

 free from the objectionable reddish tinge that some- 

 times occurred in the red cob variety. The plants arc 

 dwarf and stocky, enabling them to be closely planted ; 

 usually two ears are borne on a stalk. It is not only 

 the best first early sweet com, but it is valuable to 

 plant late in summer for autumn use. (See cut.)

Plant for MEDIUM EARLY Sweet Corn 



EARLY CHAMPION. 



\A/HILE this is comparatively a new variety to the 

 ^ general public, j^et it has really been grown 



for two or three years by a few people in many sec- 

 tions of the country, and from them we hear nothing 

 but praise about it. These encomiums, and our own 

 opinion of its merits, formed from our thorough trials, 

 convince us that Early Champion is destined to be- 

 come the leader among medium early sweet corns. It 

 is the earliest large variety grown, being but a few 

 daj's later than small extra earlies. It is as early as 

 Crosby, yet it is as large, and often larger, than 

 Concord. Early Champion is a r2-rowed variety, 

 with large handsome ears filled with plump, deep 

 white kernels, that retain their milky tenderness for 

 an unusually long period. Quality and flavor sur- 

 passingly fine and sweet. Valuable for either home 

 use or for market. Verv productive. (Sec cut.)

Plant for MIDSE.ASON Sweet Corn 



THE ^HENDERSON." 



"yniS is an ideal com. It follows after the early varieties, and is 

 ready for the table about ten days to two weeks before the latest 

 sorts. The "Henderson" Corn produces uniformly large, thick ears, 

 averaging twelve inches in length, being compactly filled from butt 

 to tip ^^•ith long milky-white kernels of luscious tenderness and 

 deliciously rich flavor. The toothsome quality is retained for a 

 much longer time than -n-ith most corns. The plants are luxuriant, 

 healthy growers, are scarcely affected by drought, and are wonderfully 

 prolific. For the home garden it is peerless, and is one of the most 

 valuable sorts grown for canning and market. (See cut.) Price, 10c.

STOWBLLS EVIIRGREEN. 



[Mow recognized everywhere as a standard \ariety, both for home use 

 and market, and is the general favorite. The ears are of a large 

 size, grains deep, exceptionally tender and sugary, and have the advan- 

 tage of reinaining longer in the green state than any other. Our stock 

 has been carefully grown and selected to avoid the tendency to a shorter 

 grain and deterioration in the evergreen character of this best of all late 

 sorts. {See cut.) Price, 10c. * pt., 15c. pt., 25c. qt., $1.20 pk., $3.75 bush.
