Golden Sunshine. 
145. EARLY EVERGREEN. 
fine strain of Stowell’s Evergreen with large ears, yet 
ready for the table 7 to 8 days earlier than Stowell’s. 
It retains the fine sugary flavor and tenderness of kernel 
that have made the Evergreens popular. Large pkt. (2 
ozs.), 10c; 2 pkts., 15c; y 2 lb., 20c; lb., 30c; 2 lbs., 55c; 
5 lbs., $1.10, postpaid. 
140. *BLACK MEXICAN. . (88 days.) One of the 
largest and sweetest of all varieties of sweet corn. Ears 
8 to 10 inches long. Kernels white when in the eating 
state. The best second early for the home garden. Large 
pkt. (2 ozs.), 5c; x / 2 lb., 20c; lb., 30c; 2 lbs., 55c; 5 lbs., 
$1.10, postpaid. 
138. GROWLING IVSOB. (85 days.) This variety is 
so valuable that it heads the list with many growers. 
When it was first offered the demand for it became so loud 
and clamorous that it was given its queer but appropriate 
name. It is one of the best flavored and most tender of 
all second-early or main crop varieties. Very productive, 
ears nine to ten inches long, with sixteen rows. Large 
pkt., (2 ozs.), 10c; 2 pkts., 15c; y 2 lb., 20c; lb., 30c; 
2 lbs., 55c; 5 lbs., $1.10, postpaid. 
135. NEARLY JULY. (70 days.) An extremely early white corn. To say 
that it is earlier than Golden Bantam is perhaps recommendation enough. 
The ears are creamy white, about seven inches long and on account of the very 
admirable habit of producing two, three and even four good ears to the stalk, it 
is really very productive. It has a short stalk with few leaves, so you can plant 
six or eight kernels to the hill. Large pkt., (2 ozs.), 10c; 2 pkts., 15c; y 2 lb., 
20c; lb., 30c; 2 lbs., 55c; 5 lbs., $1.10, postpaid. 
148. GOLDEN SUNSHINE. (76 days.) This new valuable variety was 
developed and introduced by Dr. Yeager of the North Dakota Agricultural Ex¬ 
periment Station. It has a rich golden color; the ears are about one inch longer 
than the ears of Golden Bantam and usually have 12 rows, instead of 8, while the 
quality practically equals that of the famous Bantam. The most important feature 
of Golden Sunshine Corn is its extreme earliness. It is actually 5 to 7 days 
earlier than Golden Bantam. Our stock of this new corn is especially fine. Large 
pkt. (2 ozs.), 10c; 2 pkts., 15c; y 2 lb., 20c; lb., 30c; 2 lbs., 55c; 5 lbs., $1.10. 
136. MAMMOTH WHITE GORY. (78 days.) Larger than the original 
White Cory and still one of the very earliest varieties of sweet corn. It was 
named Mammoth White Cory because the ears are so large for an extra early 
variety. Large pkt. (2 ozs.), 5c; y 2 lb., 20c; lb., 30c; 2 lbs., 55c; 5 lbs., $1.10, 
postpaid. 
139%. ★COUNTRY GENTLEMAN. (93 days.) 
Often called “Shoepeg’’ corn because of the long, nar¬ 
row pointed kernels, with their crowded and irregular 
arrangement on the cob. It is a distinct late variety, 
with 2 to 5 big ears on a large stalk. A favorite main 
crop sweet corn, packed from tip to butt with long pearly- 
white kernels set closely on a remarkably small cob. Sweeter 
and finer flavored than any other white corn and one of 
the best of the late varieties for table use. Large pkt. 
(2 ozs.), 10c; 2 pkts., 15c; y 2 lb., 20c; lb., 30c; 2 lbs., 
55c; 5 lbs., $1.10 postpaid. 
141. GOLDEN GROSS BANTAM HYBRID. (A 
cross of two inbred Bantams. It is midseason about 4 days 
later than regular Bantam. Stalks average about 6 ft. 
in height and very sturdy. Two ears are usually pro¬ 
duced on each stock averaging 8 inches in length. It 
will yield about 50% more than regular Bantam and is 
resistant to Stewarts Disease. Hybrid corns are re¬ 
markable for their uniformity of stock, ears, and time of 
ripening. For the home gardens it should be planted at 
intervals otherwise it will all ripen at one time. For 
canning this variety cannot be beaten. Quality is excellent. 
Seed stocks must be produced each year from hybrids and 
we caution our customers not to save seed as it will not 
give satisfactory results. Pkt., 15c; x / 2 lb., 35c; lb., 60c; 
2 lbs., $1.10; 5 lbs., $2.20, postpaid.

low Country Gentleman corn. Described on

$1.20; 5 lbs., $2.40, postpaid. 
144. GOLDEN GEM. (70 days.) We in¬ 
troduced this new extra early yellow sweet corn 
five years ago. It is without doubt the finest 
early yellow corn so far introduced. It is just 
as early as any of the white varieties and will 
sell much more readily than the white. The ears 
of Golden Gem are rather small, averaging from 
6 to 7 inches in length, 8 rows to the ear. 
Golden Gem is 10 days ahead of Golden Ban 
tam and the quality fully equal to that famous 
old variety. Large pkt. (2 ozs.), 10c; 2 pkts., 
15c; y 2 lb., 22c; lb., 35c; 2 lbs., 55c; 5 lbs.,
