CARROTS 
CULTURE—Carrots may be planted from March to June. We prefer to plant from May 10 to 25; 
they will then miss many of the spring; weeds and will stand through the dry season better, making a 
better quality of roots. Plant in rows 3 feet apart covering one-half to one inch, according to weather 
conditions. Those who plant any quantity should use a good drill, as it lessens the work and gives a more 
even stand. As soon as they are up, use a wheel hoe, following this with a harrow tooth cultivator. 
PRICES—Unless noted are uniformly: Postpaid. 
Pkt. 5c; oz. 20c; 1 lb. 40c; lb. $1.00. 
GILL’S OREGON CHANTENAY—A special strain 
of our selection producing very smooth roots about 
one inch longer than the regular strain and of more 
even diameter the whole length of the carrot. It is 
very popular with gardeners. The tops are of me¬ 
dium size, tough and wiry, hence the carrots seldom 
break from the bunches. The roots are deep red 
color w’ith small core. Very high quality. Postpaid. 
Pkt. 10c; oz. 25c; 1 lb. 40c; lb. $1.00. 
GILL’S SPECIAL NANTES—The roots are bright 
orange, 6 to 8 inches long and very uniform. They 
have a very small core and are exceptionally ten¬ 
der and sweet. The roots are rather slender, of even 
diameter and of early maturity. Very desirable for 
market, especially for bunching, and also splendid 
for the home garden. We offer a fine, re-selected 
strain grown from our stock seed. Postpaid.

SWEET CORN 
The first requisite for success with corn is acclimated seed—Note those with star. 
CULTURE—Prices paid for first early corn will pay the grower to take chances on early planting^ 
For this planting use 4 to 5 seeds per hill and cover one inch deep. Space hills 28 to 36 inches, and rows 
31 feet, allowing two stalks to the hill or as some prefer, and we think this gives the best results, plant 
15 inches between hills, and thin to one stalk; this gives all the stalks an even show. April 1 to May 1 
is a good season for early corn, of course, depending on the weather. May 15th to 25th is good for the 
later sorts, as they do not resist damp, cold weather so well as the early sorts. 
Corn will not fill well unless the patch planted is blocked out; those planting small quantities 
should make the patch square, or nearly so. This will permit the pollen to blow down on the silk, 
fertilizing the ears. Early corn may be planted in succession up to June 25. Use Garden Grow fertilizer. 
•GILL’S EARLY GOLDEN SWEET—Earliest of 
the golden varieties. Ears average about the same 
size as Improved Bantam with stalks three and 
one-half feet tall. We recommend this for mar¬ 
ket and home gardens. The sweetest first early 
variety we have tested. Postpaid. Pkt. 10c; £ lb. 20c; 
lb. 35c. Not prepaid, lb. 25c; 10 lbs. @ 20c; 
25 lbs. @ 18c; 100 lbs. @ 17c. 
•GILL’S GOLDEN EARLY MARKET—The earli¬ 
est large, true sweet corn of golden color. It is 
a cross between our Improved Golden Bantam and 
Early White Market. According to our own 
trials and reports from all over the country, it is 
earlier and larger than Golden Sunshine. It is the 
outstanding early corn and is a money-maker for 
gardeners. For home use or market, be sure to 
plant this variety. It matures about a week earlier 
than Improved Golden Bantam. Large, golden 
ears, tightly filled with large sweet grains of 
high quality. Postpaid. Pkt. 10c; £ lb. 20c; lb. 
35c; Not prepaid, lb. 25c; 10 lbs. @ 17c; 25 lbs. 
@ 16c; 100 lbs. @ 15c. 
•GILL’S IMPROVED GOLDEN BANTAM—Su¬ 
perior to the original Golden Bantam in quality 
and nearly twice the size, also one week earlier. 
Nearly all ears carry 12 rows of deep, rich golden 
yellow kernels set close upon the cob. Do not com¬ 
pare this with the original strain, as it is far super¬ 
ior in every respect, and any gardener who places 
this corn on the market will command better sales 
and prices. 
It has no superior for market, table, canning or 
drying. Remember, we are the originators of 
this ipuiroved strain and continue our careful 
stock seed selections each year. If you wish the 
up-to-date selection buy direct from us. We have 
Corn, Gill’s Early Golden Sweet 
received many letters of praise for this corn and 
many of our customers will have nothing else.
