Culture. Plant in drills about three feet apart, one kernel 
every six inches, or in hills 2*4 feet apart in the row, and the 
rows 3 to 3 y 2 feet apart, dropping- four or five kernels in a 
hill. Sweet Corn of any sort should not be planted until the 
ground has become warm, as cold, wet ground is sure to rot 
the seed before it can germinate. One-fourth pound to 100 
hills; 10 pounds per acre. One pound of Sweet Corn is a little 
more than a pint.

EARLY PICKANINNY. An introduction from the Canadian 
Experiment Station, and we believe it to be the earliest 
Sweet Corn in existence; a week earlier than our Early 
June, though the ears are smaller and the color—black 
—not so desirable for market. A wonderful home 
garden sort. Pkt., 5c; 14 lb., 15c; 14 lh., 23c; lb., 35c, 
postpaid. Not prepaid; 5 lbs., $1.00; 10 lbs., $1.85. 
GOLDEN GEM SWEET CORN. A very early golden Sweet Corn devel¬ 
oped by Professor A. F. Yeager of North Dakota from a cross of 
Sunshine with Pickaninny. It is two weeks earlier than Golden 
Bantam, about four days earlier than Banting and a much heavier 
yielder in our fields. It is the earliest yellow Sweet Corn of Golden 
Bantam quality, with eight rows, that puts it in the marketing class 
with Golden Bantam. This variety should be in every home garden 
and is a money getter for the market gardener. Pkt., 5c; 14 lb., 15c; 
14 lb., 23c; 1 lb., 35c, postpaid. Not prepaid, 5 lbs., 95c; 10 lbs., 
$1.75; 50 lbs., $7.75; 100 lbs., $15.00. 
"WILL’S EARLY JUNE (Registered U. S. Patent Office). The Earliest 
White Sweet Corn. A very dwarf and amazingly early variety bred 
by us for a short season, and a true and delicious Sweet Corn. The 
white, eight-rowed ears are from 4 V 2 to 6 
inches long. Pkt., 5c; 14 lb., 14c; 14 lb., 
20c; lb., 30c, postpaid. Not prepaid: 5 lbs., 
70c; 10 lbs., $1.35; 50 lbs., $5.75; 100 lbs., 
$ 11 . 00 . 
NUETTA. The hardiest Sweet Corn. A North 
Dakota native product, for we obtained our 
original seed from a Mandan Indian twenty 
years ago. The dried seed is red, but when 
fit for eating the eight and ten rowed ears 
are a rich golden yellow. Yielding well un¬ 
der harsh, dry conditions, meeting the stiff requirements of the moun¬ 
tain country, and giving excellent results in the moist climate of the 
Pacific Coast, Nuetta is the most productive variety we have. Pkt., 5c; 
14 lb., 14c; Vz lb., 20c; 1 lb., 30c, postpaid. Not prepaid: 5 lbs., 75c; 
10 lbs., $1.35; 50 lbs., $5.75; 100 lbs., $11.00. 
SUNSHINE. A golden cross developed by Professor A. P. Yeager of the 
North Dakota Experiment Station, with twelve-rowed ears, seven to 
eight inches long. In our plantings, ten days earlier than the earliest 
strain of Golden Bantam and much larger, this is the closest to the Ban¬ 
tam in quality of any of the golden crosses. A great Corn for the home 
garden and one the market gardener needs. Pkt., 5c; 14 lb., 14c; !£ lb., 
22c; lb., 32c, postpaid. Not prepaid, 5 lbs., 85c; 10 lbs., $1.55; 50 lbs., 
$0.75; 100 lbs., $13.00.

I’ve used your garden seeds for twenty years and find them quite supe¬ 
rior. Had wonderful Golden Cera Corn and ripe Tomatoes in spite of 
drought and hoppers. I believe all my neighbors are now sending for your 
garden seeds.
