90 days.

CHINESE CABBAGE 
Pe-Tsai (Improved Chinese Cabbage). 
Grow like a late Cabbage, planting in July, 
as early plantings run quickly to seed. 
The seed is sown in drills 16 to 20 inches 
apart and the seedlings thinned two or 
three times. The full-grown plant some¬ 
what resembles a cos lettuce in appear¬ 
ance. It has a mild flavor and may be 
eaten raw or as a salad, or cooked. Boiled, 
minced and seasoned with butter, it is 
especially delectable. 70 days. 
Sugar Corn varies in weight according to 
variety. We have decided to list 44 pounds 
as a bushel, except Adams, Trucker’s Favor¬ 
ite, and Red Cob 90-Day, which weighs 56 
pounds to bushel. 
Culture. The Sweet or Sugar varieties, 
being liable to .rot in cold or wet ground, 
should not be planted before May, or until 
the ground has become warm. For a suc¬ 
cession, continue planting every two weeks, 
until the middle of July, in rich, well-ma¬ 
nured ground, in hills, covering about 
inch and thin out to 3 plants to a hill. Extra- 
early varieties can be planted feet apart 
in the row. The field varieties should be 
planted 4 feet apart each way, leaving 3 
plants to a hill. Erom 65 to 90 days. 
NOTICE 
For the convenience of our customers, 
we have marked 5 of the best varieties, 
as they mature in succession. No. 1 is 
the earliest and No. 5 the latest. 
No. 1. Golden Bantam. An extremely 
early true Sugar Corn. The grain when 
ripe is a bright golden yellow; flavor is ex¬ 
ceptionally rich and sugary. Produces 
from 2 to 3 good ears to the stalk. 
No. 2. Whipple’s Early White. Matures 
in 65 days. Large ears with wedge-shaped 
grains of pearly whiteness and high sugar 
content. 
No. 3. M.-S. SNOW-WHITE EVER¬ 
GREEN. The large, uniform ears are well 
filled to the top with beautiful white ker¬ 
nels. Splendid sort for market and home 
garden, being 10 to 12 days earlier than 
Stowell’s Evergreen. Keeps well after being 
cut. 
No. 4. Country Gentleman or Shoe-Peg. 
A short-stalked, productive sort. Ears 
large for so small a stalk; grain narrow, 
very deep, of excellent quality. 
No. 5. Stowell’s Evergreen. The ears are 
large and well filled, and it remains in the 
green state for a long time. Grains are 
deep and sugary. 
Black Mexican. An old favorite. Very 
tender and sweet. 
Early Adams. Similar to Extra-Early 
Adams, larger, but not so early. 
Extra-Early Adams. Stalks 3 to 4 feet | 
high with ears set within 6 inches of 
ground. Not a Sugar Corn but a decided 
acquisition so early in the season. 
i Golden Cross Bantam. A cross of two 
inbred Bantams. It is 4 to 8 days later 
than Golden Bantam. Has 8-inch ears 
with 10 to 14 rows of delicious golden yel¬ 
low kernels. The sturdy stalks grow 6 to 
6 ]^ feet high and are resistant to Stewart’s 
wilt disease. The yield is about twice that 
of regular strains of Golden Bantam. Ma¬ 
tures in 88 days. 
Golden Giant. This is a cross between 
Golden Bantam and Howling Mob, com¬ 
bining the delicious buttery flavor of its 
yellow parent with the size and quality of 
its white parent. Stalks to 6 feet, 
producing two or three ears 7 to 9 inches 
long with 12 to 16 rows of deep orange 
kernels. 
Howling Mob. An early Sugar Corn with 
fine, large ears. Excellent for truckers or 
the home gardener. 
Stowell’s Hybrid. There are many useless 
hybrids on the market. We have tested 
the various Stowell’s types, and observed 
them in all parts of the country. In our 
opinion only one is outstanding. We now 
offer this to our customers. It will in¬ 
crease your yields and uniformity of your 
crop. Give this a trial. Matures in 90 days. 
The Vanguard. Large-eared white Sweet 
Corn of excellent table quality. Matures 
in 65 to 70 days. 
Trucker’s Favorite. A late variety of 
Adams type. Suitable for table or stock. 
Ears very large, handsome, 14- to 16- 
rowed.
