I N order to extend the scope and work of the Real Estate Mart in 
House & Garden, we have decided to add a new department. Every 
month our readers write in and tell us what they require in real 
estate, and this department will act as “Central,” connecting buyer with 
seller and so put you in touch with the actual properties as they are 
listed. If you desire any kind of property just write in to us what you 
desire and where you desire it. State as fully as possible your wants 
and we will put you in touch with the party that has the very thing you 
want.

De Lue’s Golden Giant 
S'WEET CORN 
The most important horticultural acquisition of re¬ 
cent years. Awarded the only Silver Medal ever 
given by the Massachusetts Horticultural Society for 
novelty and excellence in Sweet Corn. 
DB LUE'S GOLDEN GLINT is the result of eleven 
years' selection by Dr. Frederick S. De Lue of Bos¬ 
ton, Mass., from the product of “Howling Mob” 
crossed witli “Golden Bantam.” 
With its 12 to 16-rowod ears it gives nearly four 
times the jield per acre than the Golden Bantam 
does with its smaller 8-rowed ears. The stalks are 
short and frequently produce two ears each. 
Its orange golden color is richer; it is more delicious 
in flavor and is equally early. 
To introduce DE LUE’S GOLDEN GI 2 VNT we offer 
a limited quantity in packets containing 25 kernels 
each at 25 cents the packet. Not more than 4 packets 
to any one customer, postpaid anywhere in the 
United States and possessions. 
Our 170-page Annual Catalog and Gardeners* 
Guide, 1,.50-illuatrationa. several colored plates 
and cultural directions, will be mailed on 
application.
