SWEET CORN 
Everbearing 
If You Want Delicious Corn on Your Table the Fourth of July Plant 
This Extremely Hardy, Early Maturing, Large Eared Sort 
We have produced in this early corn a variety which stands alone as 
a money maker. It is in the same class as the Earliest of All Sugar 
Corns, considerably larger and, best of all, contains a sweetness equal to 
most true sugar varieties. It has the power of germination under con¬ 
ditions where all others have failed and can safely be planted much 
earlier than any true sugar corn on account of its extreme hardiness. 
It adapts itself to any kind of soil, either sand or heavy clay. 
It is as large as Stowell’s Evergreen. The fodder grows 6 feet high; 
no small item to a gardener; and, as a proof of its quality and sweetness, 
we have a continuous call for “Everbearing” from our customers year 
after year. The ears are of good size and covered with kernels clear 
to the end of the cob. Each stalk will produce one to two well developed 
ears. Now, if these are picked when mature, one or two and even four 
more ears will set and develop on the same stalk during the next two 
to four weeks. Pkt. 10c; V 2 lb. 20c; lb. 35c; 2 lb. 65c, postpaid. 
Improved Adams Early 
A Popular Sort for Roasting Ears 
While not a sweet corn, this is a tender corn often used for the table, 
particularly in the South. The ears are about 8 inches long, 12 to 14- 
rowed, and the kernels are white, somewhat deeper than broad and in¬ 
dented at the outer end. The stalks are about 6 feet high. Can be 
planted earlier than any Sweet Corn. Pkt. 6c; V 2 lb. 15c; lb. 25c; 2 lb. 45c,

New Golden Sunshine 
The 12 Rowed Golden Bantam. Early—Sweet—Prolific 
Good Size 
This new Sweet Corn is a wonderful improvement over 
the popular Golden Bantam, as it is larger, sweeter, has 
12 rows instead of 8 and is from 10 days to two weeks 
earlier. The flavor leaves nothing to be desired, as it 
is rich and sweet and never becomes tough and woody. 
There is a great demand for this variety and we were 
entirely sold out early last year, so order early if you 
desire one of the finest Sweet Corns you ever tasted.

long and are usually eight rowed. Pkt. 8c; 1/2 lb. 17c;
