Another very fine early corn is one that the Messrs 
Sutton of Reading have imported into this country. This 
is hardier and known as Sutton’s Early Dwarf j it 
is a very full 
flavoured corn 
and makes a 
delicious vege- 
table. The 
White Pyrenean 
is also early and 
a 3 feet variety, 
having whitish 
brown seeds, and 
is a very com- 
pact grower. I 
omitted to state 
that I have with- 
out difficulty 
ripened seeds of 
the Sutton Early 
Dwarf. This is 
a great gain, as 
it shows its early 
maturity and its 
great value for 
private gardens 
in this country. 
Other early kinds 
are Adam’s Early, 
a 3 feet, thick, 
short cob, and of good quality. Crosby’s Early Sugar, 
Early Dwarf Sugar, and Early Tom Thumb are good ; the 
latter is a dwarf splendid variety. There are many others 
well worth growing, such as Triumphant, Minnesota, 
Metropolitan, and More’s Concord and Country Gentle- 
man ; these latter are favourites in the United States.
