174—EARLY SUNSHINE. All things considered about 
the finest real early sweet corn we ever sold. Tender and 
delicious. Stays juicy and sweet longer than many others. 
Five or six days earlier than Golden Bantam. Also a 
larger ear being 10 to 12 rowed. Some claim the quality 
is better and I think it is. Be that as it may it certainly 
doesn’t lack quality. Fills out well. Tender hulls. 
STOWELL’S EVERGREEN 
187— WHITE EVERGREEN. A late, main crop variety. 
Big ears, deep grains. Splendid quality. About the same 
as Stowell’s. 
172—WHITE MEXICAN. Everybody wants a few 
messes of real early sweet corn. Bather small ears. How¬ 
ever, none of the real early varieties have big ears. In 
that case, just eat twice as many. So plant a little of this 
to do you until your later corn is in, 
188— STOWELL’S EVERGREEN. 
Don’t make garden without this 
one. You can’t afford to. You’ll 
need earlier varieties to come ahead 
of it but it will furnish you your 
corn for canning and drying as well 
as plenty for roasting ear season. 
There is more corn to the ear on it 
and good corn too. Stays in the 
milk a long time. Deep grains, pure 
white, sweet and tender. 
177—GOLDEN BANTAM. Most 
of you know the Golden Bantam so 
we don’t need to say much. It has 
had a tremendous run in popular¬ 
ity. Ears small, 8 rowed, kernels 
broad with a tender hull. Fine for 
the home garden or to sell. 
171—PEEP O’DAY. An extreme 
early, small 8 rowed variety. Qual¬ 
ity fair. Grown mostly because it 
is early.

TOMATOES 
CULTURE—Start in the house or hot bed and trans¬ 
plant to the field when the ground is warm. Give them 
plenty of room. 
408—BONNY BEST. A second early. Scarlet, apple 
shaped, medium size. Fine quality. 
411— EARLIANA. Langdon’s strain. One of the earliest 
red tomatoes. Rounding flat, sometimes rough, firm and 
medium size. Has a short bearing season. You should 
follow it with a later variety. 
402—FIELD’S EARLY JUNE. We think this is the best 
in the extreme earlies. Not as large as some and doesn’t 
yield as heavy as some but makes up in earliness. Plant 
a few for real early. It is red, medium size, rounding flat 
and fine for slicing. Just -what you want in an early 
tomato. 
421 — FIELD’S RED 
BIRD. A new early to¬ 
mato that has gone over 
big. It is a medium size, 
a size the cook likes best. 
Round, smooth and sel¬ 
dom cracks. A bright 
red color, in fact that is 
why we named it Red 
Bird. Nice, solid, meaty 
fruits. A mild sweet 
flavor. Ripens well a- 
round the stem with no 
hard core. A compact, 
medium sized plant. Not 
only a good home variety 
but a good market vari¬ 
ety as well. I don’t 
know of any early vari¬ 
ety that you will be bet¬ 
ter pleased with. 
404—BREAK O’DAY. 
Comparing with the Ear- 
liana type, which you all 
know, it is smoother, 
yields better, stays in 
bearing longer, better 
shape and color, better 
flavor, larger and only 3 
or 4 days later. Also it is 
resistant to a number of tomato diseases. Seldom cracks. 
It is a smooth, meaty tomato. Globe shape and an at¬ 
tractive scarlet. Few seed, flesh firm and a good sweet 
flavor. 
412— GOLDEN BEAUTY. Smooth, medium size. Mid¬ 
season to late. A slightly tart flavor and fine for pre¬ 
serves or any purpose. 
422—GREATER BALTIMORE. Large, smooth, produc¬ 
tive. A good red and suitable for canning or any purpose. 
One of the best main crop varieties.

KEEP YOUR PLANTS HEALTHY 
Well fed or fertilized plants are healthy and more or less resistant 
to plant troubles. If you or I have only half enough food, we become 
poor and sickly and are unable to throw off disease. The same is 
true of plants. If your plants need food we can fix you out. Turn 
to page 11.
