MURVON’S CONNECTICUT GROWN SWEET CORN 
Corn 
There is nothing in the vegetable kingdom hailed with as much delight, 
looked forward to with as much anticipation, as juicy sweet corn. 
New Golden Sunshine. Golden Bantam, Country Gentleman and Stowell'g 
Evergreen planted at the same time will give you sweet corn all summer. Plant 
large areas in hills 3 feet apart each way. Small plots one foot apart in 30 or 
36-inch rows. Sow six kernels to the hill and thin out to three plants. 
The Sweetest Sweet Cern comes from year own garden, aa no vegetable taken 
from the garden loses its sweetness of flavor as fast as Sweet Corn. 
OUR SWEET CORN is hardier than Sweet Corn grown farther sooth or west, 
consequently is 5 to It days earlier than the same variety produced in many other 
sections It is not grown in a Add corn growing section, therefore, its purity and. 
sweetness is retained.

The Earliest Yellow Com Known 
For two years we have been promoting and advertising extensively Murvon's 
Early Sweet Corn. As Murvon’s Early is entirely a WHITE CORN we have been 
besieged with applicants for a YELLOW Sweet Corn which was as early as Mur¬ 
von’s and as sweet. Dr. Yeager of the North Dakota Experimental Station has 
solved the problem for us by introducing the GOLDEN SUNSHINE Sweet Corn. 
This is a truly wonderful variety of Sweet Corn, being 13 days EARLIER than 
Golden Bantam. In fact this variety will be off the market before the Golden Ban¬ 
tam is ready. GOLDEN SUNSHINE from a gardener’s standpoint, is the most 
valuable introduction in recent years. The EARS are LARGER in size than the 
Bantam, 12 rowed instead of 8, and of equally good color. 
Its EARS ARE FULLY 4 V* INCHES LONG. We firmly believe that GOLDEN 
SUNSHINE will eventually displace Golden Bantam. No. 6099—Pkt. 10c.

Murvon’s Extra Early 
The Earliest of all White Com 
This great improvement in Sweet Corn is now generally accepted as the 
earliest Sweet Corn known It is two weeks earlier than Golden Bantam, May¬ 
flower, Early Crosby or any of the early varieties. 
This new variety of extra early white Sweet Corn we sold for the Arst time 
to Market Gardeners in 1927. Those who tried it brought in splendid large roast¬ 
ing ears ready for the market six to eight days ahead of Early Mayflower. 
The Stalks are short and stocky, usually producing TWO LARGE HAND¬ 
SOME Ears on each stalk. The Corn is a beautiful WAXY WHITE, of a won¬ 
derful sweet FLAVOR and is READY FOR MARKET so much AHEAD of other 
early varieties that it brings a HIGH PRICE on the market. We strongly recom¬ 
mend this new variety, MURVON’S EARLY, and feel confident that every garden 
er will want to plant some of it this year.
