CELERIAC 
Turnip Rooted or “Knob" Celery 
A Really Delicious Vegetable. Celeriac is becoming increasingly 
popular each year. It is a kind of Celery which forms large bulb like 
roots. The bulbs when cut into cubes, boiled and served with a cream 
sauce are delicious. It has a most pleasant nut like celery flavor. A row 
in the garden will give you a very welcome addition to the list of fall and 
winter vegetables and it is well worth raising. The culture is the same as 
for Celery except that it needs no blanching. 
LARGE PRAGUE. The Standard Market Kind. Our stock will 
produce very large even roots or '‘Knobs.”

HARRIS’ EXTRA EARLY BANTAM. 
The Most Prolific 
Very Early Yellow 
Sweet Corn. (70 days) Since we introduced this corn in 1926 it has steadily 
grown in popularity among home and market growers. Everyone wants 
Golden Bantam corn as early as possible. By using Harris’ Extra Early Bantam 
you can get lots of corn ten days earlier than with the old strain of Bantam. This 
variety is remarkable for its large yields of good ears, there being more often 
than not two good ears on each stalk. 
The ears are just the same as the true Golden Bantam; 8-rowed, of medium length 
(6 to 7 inches long) deep yellow color and of superior flavor. It is the only very early 
corn of the true Bantam type and the seed we offer is a very carefully bred strain of our 
own growing. 
Market growers find Harris’ Extra Early Bantam a very profitable corn to grow. The 
fine quality and attractive appearance of such an early corn makes it a ready seller. The 
high yield per acre of fine ears which this corn produces makes it a most profitable kind. 
We consider this one of the finest varieties for the home garden also. This fine quality 
corn maturing as it does so early in the season is a reai treat.

For years we have specialized in growing sweet corn and our Northern 
Grown Sweet corn is far superior in earliness and quality to the same 
varieties raised from seed grown in the South and West where a large part 
of the sweet corn seed is grown. We have large specially constructed 
drying houses for curing and drying our seed corn, and enabling us to 
offer seed which is of strong vitality and Ihe highesl quality in every way. 
FOR HOME USE. We advise planting the following varieties which 
will give a constant succession of corn all through the season: Harris’ 
Extra Early Bantam or Canada Gold, Buttercup, or Golden Bantam, 
Bantam Evergreen, Golden Country Gentleman or if white corn is 
preferred plant Gills Early Market, Whipples Early, Mimms’ Hybrid and 
Country Gentleman. A month or six weeks later make another planting 
of Buttercup, Golden Bantam or Whipple’s Early for late use. 
Crossed corn such as Golden Bantam and Early Bancross 39 make fine 
large ears but ordinarily ripen too much at the same time for the home 
garden. 
If pure yellow corn or pure white corn is wanted, do not plant near 
varieties of other colors. The pollen of the white corn will cause some 
kernels of the yellow varieties to turn white, giving the ear a spotted ap¬ 
pearance. The yellow kinds will also cause the white corn to be spotted 
with yellow kernels. Do not plant sweet corn near field corn. 
Corn should never be planted in a single row. It is much better to plant, 
in three or four rows side by side. This is because the pollen does not 
fertilize the ears well when planted in a single row.
