CORN. 
My crops of Sweet Corn the past season were very good, and 
I succeeded in curing them in fine condition. The most profita- 
ble Sweet Corn to grow for marketing green, is the early and the 
late. Stowell's Evergreen is the variety usually grown for can- 
ning, but I prefer Russell's Prolific for market, as it is earlier and 
nearly as large. Sweet Corn should not be planted until the 
ground is warm, as it is more liable to rot than the common field 
-corn, though the early corn is quite hardy and may be planted 
-earlier than the later sorts. To have a succession, plant in this 
latitude every two weeks from the middle of May till July. 
Turther south the planting may be done earlier and continued 
later. 
The Cory.— A 
new variety of 
early corn, a few 
days earlier than 
the Marblehead, 
and producing ears 
^somewhat larger. Market gardeners know the value of the first 
•corn in the market. Large packet, 10 cents ; quart, 60 cents. 
Early Marblehead. — A very early sweet; corn. The stalk 
is dwarf in its growth and the ears set quite low^ down. The ears 
are of good size and very sweet for an early corn. Large packet, 
10 cents ; quart, 50 cents. 
Russell's Prolific.— The earliest first-class sweet corn ; 
ears large and sweet ; to come in after the Marblehead, there is 
no better ; very productive ; nearly every stalk will mature two 
good ears, if not allowed to stand too thick. It is my favorite 
second ea,rly corn. Large packet, 10 cents ; quart, 50 cents; peck, 
:$1.40.

either family use or for market. Ears rather small. Large

TheEgyptian, or Washington Market. — A very tall 
growing corn, growing ten to twelve feet high ; matures late and 
should be planted as soon as the ground is warm. Ears large, 
two and three on a stalk ; should be planted four feet apart each 
way, and not more than four stalks be left in the hill. Large 
packet, 10 cents ; quart, 50 cents. 
POP CORN. 
Glass' Red Rice.— This is a new species of rice corn, of a 
•dark wine color. I have never had a better parching corn ; it 
sells itself when once used ; ears good size and will yield 60 to 70 
bushels to the acre, and sells readily for $1.00 a bushel. This 
corn took the First Premium at the New York State Fair last 
season over all other varieties. Large packet, 10 cents ; quart, 50 
cents ; peck, ears (not prepaid), 75 cents.
