SWEET CORN — con tin ued 
336 Burbank” World's WonderQ 
(EE) Starting with Golden Bantam, Mr. Burbank, through selection and cross¬ 
pollination, increased the size of the ears until they measured close to lyi in. in length 
and produced 12 to 16 rows of uniform, deep, broad, sweet kernels on a very small cob. 
Plants grow 5 to 6 ft. tall. Many of the stalks carry two full-sized ears. Ready for the 
table in 79 days. Pkt. 15^; V 2 25^; lb. 40^; 2 lbs. 70^; 5 lbs. $1.30;

316 Burpee’s Delicious Q 
(M) True to its name—the most delicious of all White Sweet Corn. It is a sport from 
the famous Burpee’s Golden Bantam, and that may explain the close resemblance in 
quality. Stalks make a strong and vigorous growth, 5 to 7 ft. tall. Under average 
culture each stalk carries two fine ears close to 8 in. in length with 12 to 14 rows of 
pearly white, deep grains which are of a lusciously sweet flavor. Pkt. 10^; V 2 lb* 25^;

322 Burpee’s Branching 
(L) Sensational Sweet Corn, whicli is more tlian a novelty, as the kernels cook pearly 
white and the flavor is sweet and delicious. Under field culture, it has produced an 
average of over three ears per plant. Individual plants grow 6 to 6^2 ft. high, often 
carry 4 or 5 or even 6 ears each, which grow 5 to 7 in. long with 10 or 14 rows of 
uniform kernels. It does best on light soils and thinned out to stand about 2 ft. apart 
in the rows. Pkt. 15^; V 2 lb. 25^; lb. 2 lbs. 85^; 5 lbs. $1.75;

311 Vanguard 
(E) Very productive early Corn which 
we believe to be resistant to Stewart’s 
disease; quality is excellent, flavor is 
delicious; 8 in. ears containing 10 to 12 
rows of large white kernels. Stalks 
grow 5 to 6 ft. Most popular market 
grower variety and a good money 
maker. Pkt. 10^; Vz lb- ZOsf; lb. 35^;

307 Whipcross 39 
(E) Practically immune to bacterial 
wilt. Early maturing. 7 to 8 in. long 
and covered with from 12 to 14 rows 
of broad yellow kernels. Grows 6 to 7 
ft. high. Best quality and splendid 
flavor. Fine for home or market gar¬ 
dener. Whipcross is the result of 
carefully top crossing pure lines of 
Whipple’s Yellow and Purdue 39. It 
is not only resistant to bacterial wilt 
(Stewart’s disease), but will produce 
larger crops than open pollinated va¬ 
rieties. While it is valuable every¬ 
where, it is especially so in places 
where the wilt disease makes it im¬ 
possible to grow any Sweet Corn.

310 Howling MobO 
(E) Fine early midseason Sweet Corn. It is vigorous and productive; stalks grow 
5 to 6 ft. high, with ears 7 to 9 in. long, closely set with 12 or 16 rows of beautiful 
pearly white grains. The kernels are arranged neatly in straight rows which give 
them a particularly attractive appearance and make it easy to eat from the cob. The 
kernels are deep and contain a large quantity of delicious sweet pulp beneath the 
thin tender skin. A great favorite for the home garden and is a leading market 
growers' variety, in fact, ever since we introduced it years ago, it has steadily grown 
in popularity. The fine quality of this variety, maturing as it does so early in the 
season, is a real treat. Pkt. lOjzS; V 2 Ib. 20^; lb. 35«f; 2 lbs. 55^; 5 lbs. $1.15;

346 Maule’s Ideal Early 
(EE) Has the sweetness of most true Sugar 
Corns, yet its hardiness permits extra-early 
planting. It is an extremely quick grower. 
The ears are 6 to 7 in. long, with 12 rows of 
pure white kernels. Stalks grow 6 ft. tall, 
which is important to the gardener who is 
interested in having a crop of fodder as well 
as extra-early ears. Under favorable condi¬ 
tions you can have corn on your table by the 
4th of July. Particularly valuable to grow¬ 
ers and truckers who wish to benefit from 
the high prices obtained by being first in the 
market. Home gardeners also find it valu¬ 
able on account of its earliness. Pkt. lOd;
