CORN—Continued 
Field and Ensilage Corn 
(56 pounds to the bushel) 
Early Yellow Canada. The variety most widely grown in northern New Eng¬ 
land. An early eight-rowed flint corn, with handsome ears and compar¬ 
atively small cobs, filled to the tips with large, broad kernels. 
Early Sanford (Ensilage). Very early; ears white; excellent for fodder and 
ensilage. 
Early Eureka (Ensilage). One of the tallest and best varieties of ensilage corn, 
producing a large amount of fodder to the acre. 
improved Learning (Ensilage). An early, very productive variety. One of the 
best for ensilage; profitable as a green fodder. 
Red Cob (Ensilage). A pure white corn. Is tender and juicy, has short joints, 
and grows to a great height, with an abundance of leaves. 
Sweepstakes (Ensilage). We recommend this as the best ensilage corn we know 
of, because of its earliness and the great amount of ensilage which it produces, 
as high as twenty to twenty-five tons to the acre. When many varieties of en¬ 
silage corn are just beginning to form ears, Sweepstakes corn shows good-sized 
ears. As all of our Sweepstakes corn has been run through a three-eighths inch 
screen, you get only large, plump kernels which test ninety per cent germina¬ 
tion or better, and as twelve quarts of corn will plant an acre sufficiently 
thick to give the best results, the price of seeding an acre is not greatly more 
than if you used a cheaper corn, and the yield will be much larger. (See 
page 18) . 
Cress—Peppergrass 
A well-known salad. Requires to be sown thickly and covered very slightly. Sow at frequent 
Intervals to keep up a succession, as it soon runs to seed. 
One ounce will sow about 100 feet of drill. 
Pkt. Ox. 
Extra Curled. Very fine; may be cut two or three times .10 .20 
Water Cress. A hardy perennial aquatic plant, growing in water along the margins of 
streams.10 .60 
Cucumber 
The cucumber is a tender annual, and therefore should not be planted or set out In the open 
air until there is a prospect of continued warm and pleasant weather. Cucumbers succeed best in 
warm, moist, rich, loamy ground. The hills should be four or five feet apart In each direction. 
When all danger from insects Is past, leave but three or four of the strongest plants in the hill. 
Dusting with Bug Death will be found effective for the cucumber beetle, and spraying with Black 
Leaf 40 or Evergreen for the aphis. 
One ounce to 50 hills; 2 pounds to the acre. 
Boston Pickling. The finest variety to grow for pickles; yields large crops; 
short, straight and dark green.
