SWEET CORN 
H lb. 15c., lb. 30c., 5 lbs. $1.50 
Golden Sunshine. The most outstanding develop¬ 
ment in Sweet Corn since the introduction of the 
original Golden Bantam. Nine days earlier than 
Golden Bantam; slightly larger with quite 
uniformly 12 rows instead of 8 and possessing 
that superb quality of the original not found in 
other yellow sorts. We are conservative in these 
statements, for many claim it to be 12 or more 
days earlier and even better quality. In our 
trials it was a great surprise to find every claim 
for it fully justified and even more. Surely every¬ 
body should plant Golden Sunshine, whether for 
home or market. 
Golden Bantam. No market or home garden can 
afford to be without at least two plantings of this 
wonderful Corn each season. Stalks about 4 ft. 
and ears small with large, exceptionally sweet 
kernels. 
Whipple’s Early Yellow Twice the size of Golden 
Bantam, and matures in about 85 days. Has 
very fine quality and is growing in popularity. 
Golden Rod. A yellow corn of the Golden Bantam 
type and flavor, but somewhat later and larger 
ears; very fine to follow Golden Bantam on ac¬ 
count of its large size, color and sweetness. 
Bantam Evergreen. A yellow Corn of the Golden 
Bantam type and flavor, but somewhat later and 
larger ears; very fine to follow Golden Bantam 
on account of its large size. 
Black Mexican. Good-sized black ears, not to be 
planted with white varieties as it crosses very 
easily. 
Howling Mob. Large size ears, white, very sweet 
and deep kernels, small cob, and one of the most 
popular of the second early sorts. 
Country Gentlemen. This is considered by some 
the best of all Sweet Corn. It is of the shoe peg 
variety and not as popular as years ago on account 
of the short time it may be picked in prime con¬ 
dition. 
Stowell’s Evergreen. Standard main crop variety; 
ears large and thick grained; very deep and tender. 
Late Mammoth. Large-eared variety maturing 
after Stowell’s. 
FIELD AND ENSILAGE CORN

14 lbs. $1.00, 56 lbs. $3.00 
Longfellow. Second early Flint Corn; 10 to 12 
rows; height 8 ft. 
Improved Learning. An ideal yellow Dent En¬ 
silage Corn and popular everywhere. A tall 
grower and prolific yielder. Many stalks produce 
two long ears, with small cobs filled with deep, 
well dented, golden yellow grains. Ripens in 
from 110 to 120 days. The leafy stalks make 
splendid fodder. An exceedingly valuable va¬ 
riety for ensilage. 
CUCUMBER 
Pkt. 10c., oz. 15c., lb. 40c. 
Hybrid Long Green. The best all around Cucum¬ 
ber in existence. It has a long, straight, attrac¬ 
tive shape, with a very rich green color, a fine lot 
of showy white spines, and the color stays green 
for a week, making it a fine shipper. The vine 
is medium size, making it a fine greenhouse 
Cucumber or for under sash.

Improved White Spine. Fruit straight, dark green

flesh and excellent quality, it is one of the very 
best table Cucumbers.
