210 Golden Cream Sweet Corn 



A Golden Yellow Country Gentleman 



This new yellow grained sweet corn has ■become 

 very popular on account of its delicious flavor. 

 Its sweetness and tenderness resemble both 

 parents, Golden Bantam and Country Gentleman. 

 It is as early as the former. The stalks grow about 

 four to five feet high, and hear from two to four 

 ears which vary in size but average about five 

 inches in length, rather smaller than tlie old- 

 fashioned sweet corn, hut easily handled in eating, 

 The kernels are long and pointed a.nd are borne ou 

 a very slender cob in irregular rows. In its green 

 state the kernels are light yellow hut they cook to 

 a bright golden yellow. 



Packet, 10 cts.; pint, 30 cts.; quart, 50 cts., 

 postpaid. By express or frelglit, ixot prepaid, 

 qt., 40 cts.5 * qts., $1.10; pis., $8.00; bu., $7.00. 



224 Premo 



One of the earl test sweet corn, reaching maturity 

 in about GO days and combines all the merits <)f 

 the leading early varieties, and is superior to mativ 

 of them in size, quality and yield. Premo can be 

 planted fully as early as the Adams, for the young 

 plants withstand slight frosts, while the other 

 varieties are tender. The stalks grow about 5 feet 

 high, and are very vigorous, generally hearing two 

 well-developed ears to the stallc. 



Packet, 10 cts.; pint, 35 cts.; quart, 40 cts., 

 postpaid, Uy express or fx-eiglit, not prejiaid, 

 qt., 30 cts.; 4 qts., 75 cts.; pk., $1.35; Im., $4.75. 



225 Maiilc's Improved Giant Sugar 



The originator of this grand strain, one of the 

 most successful market gardeners in the North- 

 west, claims it to be the largest and best sweet 

 corn grown, and any one desiring sugar corn 

 X^roducing ears of immense size, which are at tlie 

 same time of delicious flavor, will do well to give 

 this Improved Giant a thorough trial. It is late. 

 The stalks are comparatively short, and so thick 

 and strong they stand up well against storms and 

 rains. The ears are frequently 12 inches or more 

 in length, and of proportionate thickness, well 

 formed and exceedingly handsome. In sweetness, 

 succulence, depth of grain and fine table quality 

 Maule's Improved Giant will he found hard to 

 heat. I recommend it to private or market 

 gardeners. 



Packet, 10 cts.; pint, 35 cts.; qnart, 40 cts., 

 postpaid. By expi-css or fi'eiajlit, not pi-epald, 

 qt., 30 cts.; 4 qts., $1.00, pk., $1.75; ton., $6.00. 



226 Mammoth White Cory 



The ears are very handsome, with no openings 

 between the rows at the base. Grains large and 

 white and of remarkably good quality for such an 

 early sort. The size and beauty of this variety 

 give it ready sale even when the market is over- 

 stocked. Fine for home or market gardeners. 



Packet, 10 cts.; pint, 35 cts.; qnax-t, 40 ctS., 

 postpaid. By express oi' freiglit, not prei>ald, 

 qt., 30 cts.; 4 qts., $1.00; pk., $1.75; Im., $6.00. 



227 Adam's Extra Early 



Not so sweet nor as early as Premo, but decid- 

 edly more hardy. Is welcomed on the table if 

 pulled promptly after reaching maturity. The 

 grains are tender and white, and the ear presents 

 a fair and attractive appearance. In general de- 

 mand by truckers and market gardeners. 



Packet, 10 cts.; pint, 30 cts.; qnart, 35 cts., 

 postpaid. By express or fz-eight, not prepaid, 

 qt., 35 cts.; 4 qts., 55 cts.; pk., $1.00; bn., $3.50. 



218 Black Mexican 



Everyone who has seen this Corn remembers 

 it and the delicious sweetness and fine grain 

 qualities in spite of its dark color, make it 

 more and m ore of a favorite every year. Grains 

 when first perfected are pure white, and are 

 then at their best for table use. Pkt., 10 cts.; 

 pt., 30 cts.; qt., 40 cts., postpaid. By ex- 

 press oi* freigkt, not prepaid, qnart, 30 

 cts.; 4 qts., 85 cts.; peck, $1.50; busliel, $5.00. 



221 Stowell's Evergreen 



standard main crop variety. Strong and 

 vigorous stalks, seven to eight feet high; pro- 

 duces ears eight inches long with IG or more 

 rows of the finest sugary grains. This variety 

 has gained and maintained a reputation for pro- 

 ductiveness, fine rich flavor and sweetness, deep 

 set tender white grains, making it the most 

 popular favorite. In market, home, or cannery 

 it always is a success. Packet, 10 cts.; pint, 

 30 cts.; qnart, 35 cts., postpaid. By express 

 or freiglit, not prepaid, qnart, 35 cents; 

 4 qnarts, 75 cts.; peck, $1.35; bnsliel, $4.75. 



GOLDEN CREAM SWEET CORN. 



217 Zig Zag Evergreen 



A medium to late Shoe Peg variety. Ma- 

 tures about eight days ahead of Stowell's Ever- 

 green; tbe kernels are shaped like those of Stow- 

 ell's Evergreen; but the arrangement on the cob 

 is entirely difl'erent; so peculiar, in fact, as to 

 give the corn its name. Two perfect ears to the 

 stalk, invariably. Pkt., 10 cts.; pt., 35 cts.; 

 qt., 40 cts., postpaid. By express or freight, 

 not prepaid, qnart, 30 cts.; 4 qnarts, 85 cts.; 

 peck, $1.50; bnsliel, $5.00. 



232 Sugar Corn for Green Forage 



For cutting in the green state, for summer 

 forage, sweet corn is superior to any of the 

 ordinary field corns. I recommend it especially 

 to dairymen, for use during .luly, August and 

 September, when pasturage is alfected by dry 

 weather. It forms a cheap and wholesome feed 

 for cows, as every part of the stalk and leaves 

 are relished. Packet, 10 cts.; pint, 30 cts.; 

 qnart, 30 cts., postpaid. By express or 

 freiglit, not prepaid, quart, 30 cents: 

 4 qnarts, 45 cts.; peck, 75 cts;. Imsliel, $3.75.
