Golden Bantam c™ e n et 
ONE OF THE SWEETEST CORNS CROWN. 
Golden Bantam is a dwarf-growing early variety. The 
plant attains a height of only 3 to 4 feet, usually bearing two 
or more ears about 5 inches long to a stalk. These little fat 
ears are compactly filled with kernels which when ready for 
the table are cream-yellow, so lusciously sweet, tender and 
milky that some people claim it “the sweetest corn on earth.” 
Golden Bantam is one of the hardiest corns grown, therefore 
can be planted earlier with safety than other varieties. This 
characteristic also adapts it to localities having cool summer 
weather, a continuous supply being maintained by succes¬ 
sive sowings. (See cut.) 
Price, 10c. pkt., 20c. pint, 35c. quart, $2.00 peck. 
THE FINEST OF ALL FOR WINTER USE. 
PROPERLY STORED, THIS MOST DELICIOUS OF ALL CELERIES MAY BE 
ENJOYED FROM DECEMBER TO MAY. 
Henderson’s Winter Queen has been bred from the standard long-keep¬ 
ing celery — Henderson’s Golden Dwarf — over which it is a grand improve¬ 
ment. It has the same robust, stocky growth — requiring but little labor in 
earthing up for blanching— and makes heavy, broad and solid heart stalks 
free from pith and string, which blanch creamy-white and are so crisply 
tender that, held by the head, a stalk will almost break of its own weight. 
In quality it is not surpassed by any celery grown, the esteemed “sweet' 
nutty flavor ” being noticed the moment tasted. It is so hardy in constitu¬ 
tion that neither heart nor outside stalks are liable to rot when trenched for 
the winter, keeping well into late spring in prime condition. In bunching there 
is very little waste, for the enormous hearts require but little trimming. We 
consider this the very best type and strain of winter-keeping celery in exist¬ 
ence. (Seecut.) Price, 10c. pkt., 40c. oz., $1.25 y v lb., $4.00 lb. 
“ You do not give your Winter Queen Celery half the praise it deserves. It 
is by far the best-flavored, crispest and longest-keeping Celery / have ever 
raised” ClIAS. II. BUCK, Spring field, Mass. 
NEW EARLY SWEET CORN 
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 two 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.)
