Jerome B. Rice Seed Co., Wholesale Seed Growers, Cambridge, N. Y. 
WHIPPLE'S EARLY WHITE (87 days)-—An early variety with the deep grain of 
the Evergreen type. About 5 days earlier than Early Crosby. Stalks 5 to 6 
feet high, of vigorous growth; ears produced IV 2 feet from the ground, often 
two to the stalk, are 8 inches long, rather “blocky” in form, 16 to 18 and often 
20 rowed, filled to the end with rather narrow, deep, wedge-shaped grains of 
pearly whiteness and high sugar content. 
WHIPPLE'S EARLY YELLOW (84 days)—A remarkable new yellow sweet corn 
of much merit. While the stalks grow 6 feet or more in height and the 14- 
rowed ears are 7 to 8 inches in length, this variety matures three days later 
than Golden Bantam. The kernels are broad, deep, and of excellent quality. 
SECOND EARLY VARIETIES 
ADAMS' EARLY, or BURLINGTON (95 days)—Not a sugar corn; similar to 
Adams’ Extra Early, but two weeks later; ears about 8 inches long, 12 to 14 
rowed, and of fair quality. 
BANTAM EVERGREEN 
BANTAM EVERGREEN (95 days)—A cross between Golden Bantam and Stow- 
ell’s Evergreen, having the color and sweetness of the Golden Bantam plus 
the strong plant growth and large ear of the Evergreen. Ears are 8 inches 
long, 12 to 16 rowed. Valuable for either the home or market gardener. 
BLACK MEXICAN (92 days)—One of the sweetest and best; ears 8 inches long 
and 8 rowed; grains bluish-black when ripe. 
EARLY EVERGREEN, RICE'S (90 days)—Ears nearly as large, about 8 inches 
long, 14 to 16 rowed; grains somewhat narrower than Stowell’s. Very pro¬ 
ductive and of high quality. 
GOLDEN CREAM —GOLDEN COUNTRY GENTLEMAN (90 days)—A very 
fine corn on the order of Golden Bantam but a week to ten days later. Ears 
about same size as the Bantam, but the grain is smaller, deep and zig-zagged 
and of a rich golden color; of excellent quality. 
GOLDEN GIANT (88 days)—A cross between Golden Bantam and Howling 
Mob and is one of the few new yellow corns to retain the high quality of its 
golden parent. In season between Golden Bantam and Bantam Evergreen, 
of medium growth, with ears 8 inches long, 16 to 18 rowed. 
HOWLING MOB (85 days)—One of the finest second early large-eared sorts. 
Very productive, white, and of excellent quality. Ears 9 to 10 inches long, 
16 rowed.
