PLANT FOR '-MEDIUM EARLY” SWEET CORN 
Henderson's HIAWATHA 
Farliness, productiveness and delicious quality are the pro¬ 
nounced merits of our new Hiawatha Sugar-Sweet Corn. 
The ears, about eight inches long, are compactly filled with 
long, plump, pearly-white kernels, so lusciously tender, creamy 
and sweet as to literally “melt in your mouth.” Another valu¬ 
able feature is the length of time the ears remain “in the milk,” 
the thick husk giving splendid protection. The plant grows 
about five feet high, bearing no less than two ears to a stalk 
and frequently three ears, all very uniform in shape and size. 
It is very early, being ready to use in from nine to ten weeks 
from planting, or only a few days later than the very earliest 
variety grown. A perfect Corn for the home table. (See cut.) 
Price, 10c. pkt., 20c. pt., 35c. qt., $2.00 pk. 
PLANT FOR “EXTRA EARLY” SWEET CORN 
Henderson's POCAHONTAS 
POSITIVELY THE EARLIEST VARIETY GROWN 
Pocahontas Sweet Corn is positively 3 days earlier than any 
other Sweet Corn grown, regardless of the claims for earliness 
made for some other varieties, for we have proven it so in our 
trial grounds for three years alongside all other early varieties 
offered by other houses. 
Pocahontas is the result of a selection for several years from 
the White Cob Cory. Its merits in addition to earliness are 
uniformity of plant to type, constitution and productiveness. 
The ears are stout, evenly and compactly filled with tender white 
kernels of very fine quality for so early a variety. (See cut.) 
Price, 10c. pkt., 20c. pt., 35c. qt., $2.00 pk. 
“ Hiawatha is our finest sweet corn this season." 
E. H. LOCKWOOD , Edgewood, R. I.

the 5 kinds I used." H. ALLERTON , Derby Line, VI. 
PLANT FOPv “MIDSEASON” SWEET CORN 
THE “HENDERSON” 
This ideal Corn is ready for the table about two weeks before 
the latest sorts. The “Henderson” Corn produces uniformly 
large, thick ears, averaging twelve inches in length, being com¬ 
pactly filled from butt to tip with long milky white kernels of 
luscious tenderness. The toothsome quality is retained for a 
much longer time than with most. Corns. The plants are luxu¬ 
riant, healthy growers, and wonderfully prolific. Price, 10c. pkt., 
20c. pt., 30c. qt., $1.75 pk. 
PRAISE FOR P OCAHONTAS SWEET CONN 
“ Your Pocahontas Sweet Corn is a wonder. We had corn from it on July 13 th, 
and every stalk is filled with large, plump ears." 
J. H. DOUGLAS, Ithaca, N. Y. 
“ You have all the seedsmen * skinned' on Early Sugar Corn in your Pocahontas. 
We pulled our first ears on the 8 th of Inly—a week ahead of Minnesota a>id 
Eloracroft Beauty, and 10 days ahead of Extra Early Market—all planted at 
the same time. These sorts have always been the earliest around here." 
W. T. BOSWORTH, Newport, Ohio. 
PLANT FOR “LATE” SWEET CORN 
STOWELL'S EVERGREEN 
Now recognized everywhere as a standard variety, both for 
home use and market, and is the general favorite. The ears are 
of a large size, grains deep, exceptionally tender and sugary, and 
have the advantage of remaining longer in the green state than 
any other. Price, 10c. pkt., 15c. pt., 25c. qt., $1.50 pk.
