CORN—Sweet or Table Varieties 
“GOLDEN BANTAM” 
Earliest and Best of All Extreme-Earlies—Most Surpassingly Delicious in Flavor—Most Famous Corn Grown 
Golden Bantam —Is becoming each year more firmly fixed in popular favor, because of its extremely early 
character, vigorous growth and surpassing delicious flavor. 
Although the dry grain is entirely free from any flinty glaze, it is exceptionally hard and firm, hence can be 
planted earlier than any other true sweet corn. The stalks are dwarf and sturdy in habit, growing to a height 
of four feet; they bear two and three good ears, which are set well above the ground. The ears, five to seven 
inches in length, have eight rows of broad yellow grains, extending to the extreme rounded tip.

STOWELL’S 
EVERGREEN 
GOLDEN CREAM 
This sweet corn is of California origin and the result of crossing the Golden 
Bantam on the Country Gentleman. The Golden Cream resembles the Country 
Gentleman in appearance, having the same irregular rows and has also the deep- 
pointed kernel and the slender cob of that variety, otherwise it is entirely distinct, 
being of dwarf habit in growth, having an ear about the length of the Golden 
Bantam, and differs from the Country Gentleman in time of maturity, being very 
early. Per pkt. 10c; % lb. 15c; lb. 30c, postpaid 
STOWELL’S EVERGREEN 
Stowell’s Evergreen —This has long been the leading main->ci-op variety for home 
use, market and canning. Our stock is carefully selected, and can be depended upon 
to produce fine large ears of superior quality. The grains of good size, are long and 
slender—entirely free from glaze or flintiness.

EARLY PORTLAND MARKET 
An Oregon introduction, a very early, large eared sweet corn and very produc¬ 
tive. Its large well-filled ears together with its plump, sweet grains of pure white, 
make it a most profitable home or market variety. Very popular with our market 
gardeners. Pkt. 10c; lb. 25c; 5 lbs. $1.00, postpaid 
POP CORN 
Black Beauty- —We believe this is not only the earliest maturing variety in cul¬ 
tivation but it is ready for popping earlier than any other sort. It pops very largq 
and exceptionally white. The kernels are black but this color is not noticeable after 
popping, when this sort is the largest and most tender of all. The ears are about 
six inches long, twelve rowed. The kernels are smooth, shallow and are nearly 
square. Per pkt. 10c 
White Rice—A very handsome and prolific white variety. The ears are five to 
seven inches long. The kernels are long, pointed and somewhat resemble rice. This 
excellent rather late maturing variety yields heavily and is considered the best pop 
corn for parching. Per pkt. 10c 
COLLARDS 
This is a tall, loose leaved cabbage-like or kale-like plant grown throughout the 
south and know in different sections as “Cole,” “Colewort,” or simply “Greens.” It 
is extensively used for the table as well as for stock feeding in the south where it 
continues in growth and is usable throughout the entire winter. Collards usually 
succeed in locations where cabbage cannot be grown to perfection. 
Sow the seed thickly in drills, in rich ground, transplanting when about four 
inches high ; or sow in drills where the plants are to remain and when well started 
thin to two or three feet apart in the row. In the south, seed may be sown from 
January to May and from August to October. 
Georgia, Southern or Creole—This is the white or green stemmed variety, growing 
two to three feet high and forming a large, loose, open head or cluster of leaves 
with a rather long stem. A frost, if not too severe, will improve rather than injure 
the quality of the leaves. Pkt. 10c; oz. 15c; 2 oz. 20c; % lb. 30c; lb. $1.00
