Golden Bantam Sweet Corn 
SWEET CORN 
Sweet Corn is one of the most delicious vegetables, but to secure the delicate flavor and tender, 
juicy kernels, it must be picked fresh from the garden. After raising your own corn, you will never 
be satisfied with corn that has been carted to market, handled over and carted to your home. A 
collection of early, medium and late varieties afford a crop through the season. 
All Corn by pkt., pt., qt. delivered postpaid. All pecks sent by Express Collect.

DANDELION 
Dandelion is a hardy perennial, and one of the 
most desirable early spring salads. Sow in early 
spring in drills % inch deep and 18 inches apart; 
thin out the plants to 12 inches. Keep clear of 
weeds during the summer and the ensuing sum- 
mer the leaves will be fit to cut. They are best, 
however, when blanched, which makes them ten- 
der and destroys, to some extent, their bitter taste 
without impairing the qualities which make them 
desirable as greens. The blanching may be done 
by placing a couple of boards over the rows 
thus A- This excludes the light and improves 
the greens, rendering them far superior to those 
found growing wild.
