DESCRIPTIVE SEED LIST FOR 1918— From 
CORN 
GOLDEN BANTAM. A medium 
early, very sweet corn, with golden 
yellow grain, very tender and of most 
excellent quality. It is not quite as 
early or sure as the Cory, and Is of 
medium size, but those who can make 
a second early kind ear, will find this 
to be of exceptionally delicious and 
rich flavor for table use. We have 
grown it successfully here for several 
years, and for eating, like it best of 
all. Lb., 45c; % lb., 25c; '/4 lb., 15c; 
pkg., 10c; 5 lbs. or over at 35c per lb. 
CUCUMBERS 
MAMMOTH WHITE CORY. This is 
the White Cob Cory much improved 
in size of ear and kernel. It is the 
largest extra early sweet corn. It has 
twelve instead of eight rows, as in the 
old Cory, and will find better sale in 
the market. It is nearly as early and 
as good quality also. Lb., 45c; % lb., 
25c; >4 lb., 15c; pkg., 10c. 
EXTRA EARLY CORY. This is the 
earliest sweet corn grown, and the 
best and surest to plant on Puget 
Sound. Put the hills three feet apart 
each way, and then thin out to two 
stalks in each hill, and it will ear and 
fill well. Lb., 45c; % lb., 25c; % lb., 
15c; pkg., 10c. 
EARLY MINNESOTA. Is larger 
and later, but not so sure as the Cory. 
It Is well to plant some of both kinds 
for a succession. Lb., 45c; % lb., 25c- 
Vi lb., 15c; pkg., 10c.

CRESS or 
PEPPER GRASS 
UPLAND. Leaves and flavor re- 
semble water cress, but grows in dry 
soils, on uplands. Oz., 30c; pkg., 5c. 
LONG GREEN, IMPROVED. This 
is undoubtedly the best variety of 
cucumbers for all uses grown. While 
it is later than the White Spine, It 
produces a much larger fruit. It pro- 
duces an abundance of fruit and is un- 
surpassed either for market garden- 
ing or for the home garden. % lb., 
50c; oz., 15c; pkg., 5c. 
IMPROVED WHITE SPINE. This 
is one of the best sort.s for early table 
usfc, as it will mature fruits a little 
earlier than the Long Green. Fruits 
usually straight and light green in 
color. 14 lb., 50c; oz., 15c; pkg., 5c. 
JAPANESE CLIMBING. This cu- 
cumber is adapted to growing on a 
trellis so that the fruits hang free from 
the ground. The fruits are much 
longer than the Long Green and of 
good flavor. Usually thrive well even 
in dry, hot summers. % lb., 50c; oz., 
15c; pkg., 5c. 
ENDIVE 
GREEN CURLED. Not only much 
used as a salad, but is highly orna- 
mental from its delicately cut and

nishing. Lb., $1.50; oz., 15c; pkg., 5c.
