PLANT FOR EXTRA EARLY SWEET CORN 
Henderson’s Pocahontas 
Pocahontas was obtained by the careful, pains¬ 
taking effort of a New York truck-gardener to 
whom earliness meant all, and his work was emi¬ 
nently successful. The plant is of dwarf habit 
and very robust. The ears are of good size and 
are always well 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 recommend 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 Jiily loth, thus prolonging the season for Sweet 
Com to its utmost length. (See engi'aving ..) 
Price, 15c. pkt., 45c. pt., 80c. qt., $3.00 for 4 qts. 
“After trying many varieties of Sweet Corn 1 believe that 
your Pocahontas beats them all. It excels in earliness and 
; productiveness." • 
LAWRENCE GEMPERLE, Mars, Pa. 
“ Your Poca}\ontds Sweet Corn is a wonder. We had corn 
from it on July l'Slh, and every stalk is filled with large, plump 
ears." 
J. H. DOUGLAS, Ithaca, N. Y. 
“/ would like to know of a Sugar Corn that will beat or equal 
your Pocahontas Sweet Corn. We pulled the first ears of it 
today, July 8th, and ?io doubt we could have found plenty on 
the 4th." 
W. T. BOS WORT II, Newport, Ohio. 
“ My father before me bought seeds from Peter Henderson a* 
Co. and 1 followed him. We have been patrons for over forty 
years, with uniform and continuous satisfaction." 
Jan. 30, 1917. E. P. Burns, Atlanta, Ga .

This ideal Corn is ready for the table about a week before the latest sorts. 
The “Henderson” Corn produces uniformly large, thick ears, compactly filled 
from butt to tip with long, milky white kernels of luscious tenderness. The 
delicious quality is retained for a much longer time than with most Corns. The 
plant is luxuriant, healthy and vigorous. (See engraving.) Price, 15c. pkt., 
35c. pt, 60c. qt, $2.25 for 4 qts. 
"We had splendid results from the 1 Henderson ’ Sweet Corn and all other seeds bought from you
