ear “in the milk” for several days longer than other varieties. The cob is unusually small and the 
pearly white kernels of great depth. Pkt. 10 cts., V 2 lb. 30 cts., lb. 50 cts., 2 lbs. 90 cts.,

Evergreen. Now recognized everywhere as a standard variety, both for home 
_.— -use and market, and is the general favorite. The ears are of large 
size, grains deep, exceptionally tender and sugary, and have the advantage of remaining longer 
in the green state than any other. Our stock has been carefully grown and selected to avoid the 
tendency to a shorter grain and deterioration in the evergreen character of this best of all late 
sorts. Pkt. 10 cts., V 2 lb. 25 cts., lb. 45 cts., 2 lbs. 85 cts., 5 lbs. $2, 15 lbs. $4.50.
