Corn prices subject to change without notice 
CULTURE—Do not plant until late in May and the ground is thoroughly worked; four to six seeds to a 
hill, 3 feet apart each way. Keep well cultivated. For succession plant every 10 days. One quart will plant 
about 200 hills; 10 quarts to the acre. 
BANTAM EVERGREEN. A cross between Golden 
Bantam and Stowell’s Evergreen. It is second early 
to late in season and produces 8-inch golden yellow 
ears, 12-rowed, filled with big, deep grains. 
EARLY EVERGREEN. This excellent variety re¬ 
sembles Stowell’s Evergreen, but matures about 
10 days earlier than that variety. 
GOLDEN BANTAM. The plant is only 4 to 5 feet 
high and it grows so compactly that it may find a 
place in the smallest garden. The ears, though 
small, are of a most convenient size for the table, 
just right to serve whole. They are filled from butt 
to tip with deep, broad grains of attractive color 
and most delightful flavor. 
GOLDEN NUGGET. About as early as Bantam but 
produces more ears per stalk; has the same lus¬ 
cious flavor, and rich yellow color. 
HOWLING MOB. Ears about 7 inches long. Height 
of stalk 4 1 /£ feet. Large broad grains. A popular 
variety for early summer planting as it ripens a 
little earlier than Stowell’s Evergreen, and is not 
so liable to be caught by frost. 
PEEP-O’DAY. Extra-early, short stalk, often pro¬ 
ducing two ears to the stalk for so small a type; 
small ears, but filled with extremely sweet kernels. 
STOWELL’S EVERGREEN. Ears are very white, 
having deep-set kernels of very fine quality, re¬ 
maining in a green state for a long period, 7 to 9 
inches long and 18-rowed; the stalks grow 7V6 feet. 
Witloof Chicory or French Endive 
COUNTRY GENTLEMAN. Small cob, with long 
pointed kernels, irregular rowed; probably the 
sweetest of all Corns and keeps its flavor a long 
time after picking. 
WHIPPLE’S EARLY WHITE. This variety, with the 
deep grain of the Evergreen type, matures a few 
days after Forbes Early. The stalks are 5 to 6 feet 
high, of vigorous growth; the ears often two to 
the stalk, are 8 inches long, rather “blocky” in 
form, 16- to 18-rowed, filled to the end with rather 
narrow, deep wedge-shaped grains. 
WHIPPLE’S YELLOW. Matures a few days before 
Golden Bantam and grows ears 7 to 8 inches long 
and 12- to 16-rowed, with often two ears to one 
stalk. Whipple’s Yellow grows quite tall. The eat¬ 
ing quality is very excellent. 
BLACK MEXICAN. Blue-black when picked, but be¬ 
comes nearly white after cooking. But for its color 
would be grown more, for it is very sweet and does 
not dry up quickly.
