JOHNSON & STOK ES, PHILADELPHIA - 
- -- 
New Sweet Corn, Peep o’ Day 
The two points of this remarkable corn are 
its extraordinary earliness and unparalleled 
sweetness. It is also wonderfully productive. 
The early varieties of sweet corn do not, as a, 
rule, yield as heavily as the later sorts ; but 
owing to the fact that the stalks bear from two- 
to five ears each, and that they are very dwarf, 
which admits of their being planted close to¬ 
gether, it not onlv gives an early yield, but it 
gives one of great productiveness as well, 
sometimes doubling the yield per acre of other 
early sorts. . . ,

mail, postpaid; by express, pint, 20c.; qt.,

Holmes’ Premo 60-Day 
Sweet Corn 
This is a very fine, very enrly sugar corn ; hardy and 
can he planted fully as early ns the EurlyAdams', and seed 
does not rot easily when planted early. The stalks grow 
about five feet high and mostly hear two well-developed 
ears to the stalk. It is of extra fine quality, very sweet 
and delicious. A good enrly market sort. Price, pkt., 
10c • pint 20c.; qt., 35c.. by mail, postpaid ; by express 
or freight, qt., 30c.; peck,$1.25; bush., $4.75. 
New Buck Mountain Corn 
This is the earliest table corn in cultivation. In 
general appearance it resembles our celebrated Burling¬ 
ton Hybrid, the grain being smooth, creamy and of white color. The ears, however, arc not quite so large, but it is ready 
for the table a week earlier. It is not strictly a sweet corn, and is not recommended for anything save the very earliest 
iimrkut purposes. Its great hardiness enables it to be planted from two to three weeks earlier than sugar corns like the 
Crosby, Minnesota, or Gory. If pulled when young it is very tender and is very profitable to grow for the first early market.
