The Most 
Delicious 
S woot 
Corn 
Ever 
Growu. 
Henderson’s “ Country Gentleman ” 
is the Quest of all Sweet Corns 
for the private table. The arrangement of the ker¬ 
nels on the cob indicates high quality. The moment 
your teeth sink into this luscious, milky, tender 
Corn, you will become a complete convert to It, for It 
will delight the most fastidious epicure. The “Coun¬ 
try Gentleman ” Corn retains its delicate tenderness and > 
flavor even when a little old, as the ears are Inclosed in a 
heavy husk—which tends to keep the ear “ in the milk ” for 
several days longer than other corns. The ears average 8 to 9 Inches in length a very 
attractive size for the table. The cob is unusually small, and tke pearly white kernels 
of great depth. Another great point of merit is the abundance of red silks in each 
ear, conducting plenty of pollen, which is the secret of the ears of this variety being 
lilled from end to end with plump and fully developed kernels, for which this variety 
is noted. The plant is 6 feet in height, medium late, and very handsome. It pro- 
duces three, and many times four ears to a stalk. When we consider that ordinary 
Sweet Corn produces only one or two good 
ears to a stalk, the superiority of this variety 
will be quickly seen. But its great merit is 
its delicious quality ; it is, without doubt, the 
sweetest and most tender of all Sweet Corn.
