Allen’s Choice. Or an improved Malakhoff which was brought to this country by 
the U. S. government from Russia, and was the earliest Corn ever grown. Has been 
grown by a local market gardener and carefully selected by him until he has a 
distinct variety of the Malakhoff of his own. After careful inspection we have 
made arrangements to supply our trade with this corn, calling it “Allen’s Choice.” 
Not only the sweetest early Corn but the largest early Corn, better and earlier, 
by far, than Peep o’ Day. 
Barden’s Wonder Bantam. A beautiful yellow Corn, superior to the Golden 
Bantam, both in size and in quality. Stalk grows from 5 to 6 ft. high, ears 8 to 10 
inches in length. As early as the Golden Bantam. It is a variety that is worthy 
of a trial by any market gardener, canner or garden maker. We consider it by 
our trial to be the best improved Golden Bantam yet put on the market. You will 
be getting both size and quality in this Corn, which took Mr. Barden 5 years to 
perfect and put on the market. 
Country Gentleman. A well known and deserving old sort that has always been 
very popular, due to its large, compact ears of irregular rows. 
De Lue’s Golden Giant Sugar Corn. The famous winner of many horticultural 
prizes. This is no fake variety, it is exactly what the gardener has been looking 
for. Of even better quality than Golden Bantam, will yield twice as much per acre 
as the Golden Bantam, larger eared and larger stalk, making it the most pro¬ 
ductive and the best yellow Sweet Corn in existence. We have purchased a limited 
quantity of this seed from the originator who’ stands back of the above descrip¬ 
tion. This we offer in limited quantities. 
Golden Bantam. This is a Sweet Corn of most exquisite quality, which when ready 
to use is of a bright golden yellow color. It looks rich and is rich and no mistake. 
It can be planted very early, as it is as hardy as the Extra Early Adams. The 
small stalks can grow closely together in the row 
and will produce 2 or 3 ears each. 
Golden Alpha. A new yellow variety, formed 
from a careful cross and selection from Barden’s 
Wonder Bantam and Ferry Alpha, the earliest 
white corn. Golden Alpha combines all the de¬ 
sirable qualities of Ferry Alpha with an appeal¬ 
ing golden yellow color. The ears are 6 to 8 in. 
long, cylindrical and uniformly eight rowed. 
Stalks more sturdy and vigorous than the parent 
Alpha. 
Golden Sunshine. (50 days). Blue skies and sun¬ 
shine have combined their divinely guided 
chemistry to produce the nectar-like sweetness of 
this delicious golden corn. The ears are compact, 
about same size as Golden Bantam, but more re¬ 
fined in appearance, having from 10 to 12 rows 
of grains instead of 8 as Golden Bantam. It is a 
very rapid grower, and the earliest of the golden 
group. 
Stowell’s Evergreen. Known everywhere. An old 
one but still king of the latest, considering 
everything.

produces perfect branched stalks, 2 ft. long, crisp 
and thick, blanches early and easily, fine keeper 
and shipper. 34 oz., 10c; 1 oz., 15c; 34 lb., 45c;

variety, easily marketed and a great keeper, of 
fine quality and has just enough of the nutty 
flavor that makes Celery popular for flavoring and
