Several fine cobs were exhibited in Two Gold Medal and Two Grand Prix 
Collections of Vegetables at the Franco>British Exhibition, 1908. 
This Maize is a favourite vegetable dish in Canada, and we are now able to offer an 
improved type, acclimatized and saved in this country. The demand is increasing as it is more 
widely known. The cobs are cooked and served whole, and the peculiar sweet nutty flavour 
is so appreciated that after a trial it will, no doubt, find a permanent place in the Kitchen 
Garden.

Description. — A useful vegetable, not nearly so much cultivated in this country in 
gardens as it would be were its merits known. 
Use. — As a substitute for Turnips, especially in hot dry seasons. The bulb grows 
entirely out of the ground. 
Varieties. — There are two varieties in general cultivation, the white and the purple. 
Cultivation. — Prepare a breadth of good well-manured soil. Drill the seeds in rows 
about 15 inches apart in May, and thin out to about 9 inches apart. They are ready 
for use when they attain the size of a small Turnip.
