Henderson’s Metropolitan Sweet Corn 
The Best Early Sweet Corn Grown 
THE BEST, THE LARGEST, THE SWEETEST AND THE BIGGEST 
YIELDER OF ALL EARLY SWEET CORNS 
To get the first crop of really good Sweet Corn, grow Henderson’s Metropolitan. There has 
never been any one variety of Corn besides Metropolitan that combined the essential features 
of earliness, productiveness and good flavor in a satisfactory degree. In these important charac¬ 
teristics, Metropolitan certainly outclasses any other variety. It is very little later than Cory, 
which has been the most popular early sort. # . .... „ . 
The plant is distinct, being very strong in stalk, growing feet in height. The leaves are 
numerous, narrow and very dark green in color. The ears are from 8 to 9 inches long and all set 
low. They are 10 to 12-rowed, well filled to the tip with large deep grains, which are very tender. 
It is not merely sweet, but possesses that exquisite richness so well known in the larger and later 
sorts. (See engraving.) Price, 15c. pkt., 30c. pt., 55c. qt., $2.10 for 4 qts., $4.00 peck. 
*• j haw raised Henderson's Metropolitan Sweet Corn for five years in succession, and I am sure there is 
none better." ROULEAU , Auburn, Me. 
*•All your seeds were very satisfactory, the Sweet Corn being especially fine. I. was true to type and name, 
and I sold it when others had to take theirs home again" R. E. FISHER, Montour sville. Pa. 
“ \y e have had excellent results with all your seeds. Henderson's Metropolitan Sweet Corn is the finest corn 
we have ever had." Mrs. E. C. WESTON, Bangor, Me. 
“ The Sweet Corn Seed I bought from you last year was fine. I had the best sweet corn in this neighborhood."

Golden Bantam Sweet Corn 
A Gem for the Small Garden 
A Small Ear of Remarkable Quality 
ONE OF THE SWEETEST CORNS 
GROWN 
Golden Bantam is a dwarf medium early variety 
of exceptionally good quality and reliability. It is 
rapidly becoming one of the most popular varieties 
in our list. While the individual plant and ear are 
small, it may be planted so much closer than the 
larger-eared sorts, so that the net product from a 
given area is about the same as of ordinary sorts. 
The plant is about 5 feet high, medium early, but 
of exceptionally good quality. In all respects it is 
a gem—in size of plant, ear and grain. It is 
particularly well adapted to small gardens, on 
account of its small size; to the more pretentious 
garden on account of its excessive cropping ability 
on a given area, and to all because of its superb 
quality and delicious, satisfying flavor. It may 
be planted to advantage in hills three feet apart 
each way. If in rows, they should be three feet 
apart, and the plants standing singly at nine- 
inch intervals. It is probably 
the best to use where only one 
sort is planted, for it suc¬ 
ceeds admirably under 
all conditions. (See en¬ 
graving.) Price, 15c. 
pkt., 40c. pt., 70c. qt., 
$2.60 for 4 qts., $5.00 
peck. 
“ Henderson's Seeds 
have always given the 
best of satisfaction to 
me. My Golden Ban¬ 
tam Sweet Corn was 
far superior to my 
neighbors’ who pur- 
chased the seed 
locally." 
CHARLES E. IIART 
Elmira, N. Y. 
“Our friends think 
the Golden Bantam 
Sweet Corn the best 
they ever ale, and it 
tastes as good as in 
the East, though the 
climate here is not con¬ 
sidered good for rais¬ 
ing corn." 
Miss ELLEN BUTTERFIELD. So. Pasadena, Cal. 
“ Our Golden Bantam Sweet Corn from you was a revelation; so succulent, 
tender and sweet. Our whole family soon learned to choose the little cream- 
colored ears when Corn was served at our table." 
Mrs. C. L. PORTER, East Orange, N. J. 
IT IS PERHAPS NOT GENERALLY KNOWN THAT SWEET CORN 
IS MUCH MORE TENDER AND RETAINS ITS FLAVOR 
BETTER WHEN PUT INTO COLD WATER AND GRAD¬ 
UALLY BROUGHT TO THE BOILING POINT
