- NINE INTERMEDIATE SORTS 



Peck. 3^Pk. Qt. VsTt. 



Landreths' Sugar, 70 days . Many other Sugar varieties are 

 earlier than this, but we believe it is the best all-round Corn and the 

 most desirable as a main crop in the family garden. Planters will find 

 it remarkably satisfactory and astonishingly productive, two ears on 

 every stalk, often three and sometimes four. Stalks one foot shorter 

 than the Evergreen and very close- jointed and sturdy, never blowing 

 over. The ears set low, large and well filled. The grain is narrow and 

 deep, somewhat similar in shape to Evergreen, but smaller. The ear 



remains long in edible condition, which is a very great advantage $1.40 75 25 10 



Hickox, 70 days. — Very superior, an excellent sort preceding the Early Mammoth.... 1.40 75 25 10 

 Old Colony. — An old-fashion variety, hard to beat, very productive and most 



excellent 1.40 75 25 10 



Country Gentleman, 70 days.— A short-stalked, produc- 

 tive sort, frequently producing 3 ears to the plant. Ears large for so small a 

 stalk; grain narrow and very deep, after form of shoe-peg. Highly recom- 

 mended as one of the very best 1.75 90 25 10 



Early Mammoth, 70 days. — The earliest long, slim ear among the very desir- 

 able sorts : 1.50 80 25 10 



White Evergreen Sugar, 75 days. — SHmmer and shorter stalks than the StowelFs 

 Evergreen broad, vigorous, deep green foliage without any red color; earlier 

 by several days to produce ears suitable for table. Ears set low on the stalk, 



fully as large and grains a purer white than Stowell's 1.50 80 25 10 



Perry's Hybrid, 75 days. — An early variety, productive and popular 1.50 80 25 10 



Zigzag Evergreen, 78 days. — An early variety bearing exceedingly long ears. 



Stalls short and slender. Early in maturity for so large an ear 1 . 40 75 25 10 



Evergreen Sugar (Stowell's), 80 Days— The most popular 



among the late Sugar Corns. More bushels are used than all other sorts com- 

 bined. Large, tender, very deep, milk-white grains 1.25 70 25 10 



ONE LATE SORT 



Late Mammoth Sugar, 85 days. — The strongest growing of all Sugar Corns. 



The ears are very large and showy. Valuable as a succession 1 . 50 80 25 10 



NOT TRUE SUGAR 



Landreths' Earliest Table, 55 days. — This produces the 



largest ear of any variety of an equal earliness in maturing for table use. It is 



a half Sugar variety of the height of Crosby, or of about five feet. It can be 



grown in three-foot rows and cut out to eight inches. The ears are produced ^ 



about eighteen inches from the ground and two to the stalk, the grain covering 



the entire cob clear to the point.. On quick soil it should be ready for table 



eight weeks after germination, earlier than the earliest Corey, while producing 



an ear twice as large. Not being a Sugar Corn variety, it does not possess the 



sweetness of the Sugar sorts, but is very acceptable before the others are ready. 



To the Market Gardener it is very profitable 1.75 90 25 10 



Extra Early Adams, or Early Burlington, 62 days.— Height of stalk 3 to 4 feet, 

 ears set w^ithin 6 inches of the ground. Not a Sugar Corn, but a decided 

 acquisition so very early in the season. Plant close in rows at 2| feet and thin 



to 1 foot 95 50 20 10 



Adams Early, 68 days. — In order of maturity after the Extra Early Adams 95 50 20 10 



Early Landreth Market, 80 days. — Not a true Sugar 



Corn, but a hybrid or mixture between a Sugar Corn and the Adams Early, 

 . and cultivated on large areas by Market Gardeners. This variety will mature 



ears for market in about 80 days from germination. The stalk is quite leafy 

 ' and grows to a height of 6 feet. A very profitable sort as a money maker. 



Plant in rows at 4 feet and thin to 2 feet 1.40 75 2o 10
