SWEET CORN 
Everbearing 
If You Want Delicious Corn on Your Table the Fourth of July Plant 
This Extremely Hardy, Early Maturing, Large Eared Sort 
We have produced in this early corn a variety which stands alone as 
a money maker. It is in the same class as the Earliest of All Sugar 
Corns, considerably larger and, best of all, contains a sweetness equal to 
most true sugar varieties. It has the power of germination under con¬ 
ditions where all others have failed and can safely be planted much 
earlier than any true sugar corn on account of its extreme hardiness. 
It adapts itself to any kind of soil, either sand or heavy clay. 
It is as large as Stowell’s Evergreen. The fodder grows 6 feet high. 
The ears are of good size and covered with kernels clear to the end of 
the cob. Each stalk will produce one to two well developed ears. Now, 
if these are picked when mature, one or two and even four more eara 
will set and develop on the same stalk during the next two to four weeks.

Improved Adams Early 
A Popular Sort for Roasting Ears

particularly in the South. The ears are about 8 inches long, 12 to 14- 
rowed, and the kernels are white, somewhat deeper than broad and in¬ 
dented at the outer end. The stalks are about 6 feet high. Can be 
planted earlier than any Sweet Corn. Pkt. 8c; y 2 lb. 18c; lb. 30c; 2 lb.

sweet, rich, white and tender. Not only is it valuable for family use,

we can highly recommend it for all general purposes. Pkt. 10c; V 2 lb* 23c;

New Golden Sunshine 
The 12 Rowed Golden Bantam. Early—Sweet—Prolific—Good Size 
This new Sweet Corn is a wonderful improvement over the popular 
Golden Bantam, as it is larger, sweeter, has 12 rows instead of 8 and is 
from 10 days to two weeks earlier. The flavor leaves nothing to be 
desired, as it is rich and sweet and never becomes tough and woody.

Black Mexican 
Delicious Sweetness. Cooks Clear White

are about 6*4 feet high. The ears are about 8 inches long and are usu¬ 
ally eight rowed. Pkt. 10c; % lb. 23c; lb. 40c; 2 lb. 75c, postpaid.
