Extra Early Varieties 
Ari^tnrrAt One the largest extra early varieties. 
--— Stalks grow from 4 to 6 feet high and 
oars are of large size. The grains are extremely sweet, 
and, Ijcing broad, allow of easy scoring with a knife pre¬ 
paratory to buttering when eating from the cob. Ripens 
with the Cory.

Crosby Extra Early ^„^° ST ( ° r ^i 1 MA ?,^, T | 
Excels in quality the extra early varieties. Ears are rather 
short, averaging from twelve to sixteen rows of rich, 
sugary flavor; very productive. One of the best for 
canning, and we believe without a rival in the extra early 
varieties. Pkts. only 25c.

Crosby. Pkt. 10c., y 2 lb. 20c., lb. 30c., 6 lbs. $1.00. 
Sweet Corn, Granite State 
CORY, RED COB. One of the earliest and best extra 
early varieties. Ears are eight-rowed, medium size, 
with red cob. The popular extra early variety for the 
market. 
Pkt. 10c., y 2 lb. 15c., lb. 25c., 6 lbs. $1.40. 
CORY, WHITE COB. Similar to the above with white 
kernels. One of the most popular varieties for first early 
crop. The 6- to 7-inch ears are well filled with 12 rows 
of pearly white, large grains. Our strain of this is 
extremely uniform in both size of ears and height of 
stalk; we select it that way. Stalks grow 4^2 feet high, 
each generally bearing two large, finely shaped ears. 
The size and’beauty of this variety give it ready sale 
even where the market is overstocked.

METROPOLITAN. Laryest variety in the extra earlics.

of the most profitable in the list. Large kernels, ten 
to twelve row’s, ears from eight to ten inches long.

any other variety. Small stalks, very prolific, medium 
size ear.

PnraKnntn c Similar to the White Cob Cory. 
rocanonias The pj ant J s Q f dwarf habit and 
very robust. The ears are of good size and are 
always w’ell filled, having no gaps between the rows 
—a common fault of many early sorts. The flavor 
is excellent for so early a variety. While we recom- 
commend it primarily as a first early sort, it has been 
found to have great value for the latest crops, as it 
may be planted in this vicinity as late as July loth, 
thus prolonging the season for Sweet Corn to its 
utmost length. 
Pkt. 10c., y 2 lb. 20c., lb. 30c., 6 lbs. $1.60. 
QUINCY MARKET. Nearly as early as Cory, but 
larger and much sweeter; twelve-rowed. Of excel¬ 
lent quality; valuable for the family garden as w r ell 
as for market. It is ready for the table a little in 
advance of Early Crosby, and is often sold in the 
markets as Crosby, a variety which in a green state 
it strongly resembles. A strictly reliable variety; 
a pleasure to recommend.
