SWEET CORN 
NATIVE OF AMERICA 
Our Sweet Corn is grown in Northern Ohio which is known to be the best 
corn growing district in the United States. Here soil and climatic condi¬ 
tions conspire to make our stock of seed in a class far superior to corn 
grown in other territories. 
The number of days indicated for each variety to develop ears to the 
eating stage represents average trial readings in the territory where it 
is grown. Varieties listed in larger letters are, in our judgement, the 
better and more important ones.
