It is generally conceded that Connecticut- 
grown seed sweet corn is of superior quality. 
Seed is produced here in large quantities for 
shipment to the most critical trade. 
Note: Varieties are listed in approximate order of 
earliness. 
EARLY VARIETIES 
Early Surprise. (72 days). A valuable extra 
early white corn. Early Surprise, according to 
trial ground tests, is even earlier than the Early 
Mayflower. Seed planted May 22nd was ready 
in 69 days. A large, attractive, strictly white 
ear with 12 rows. Per pt., 25c.; qt., 45c.; 10 
Ibs., $1.90; 100 rows, $16.00. 
Spanish Gold. (72 days). An extra early, 
developed by Connecticut Agricultural Experi- 
ment Station. Ears 6 to 7 inches, mostly 10- 
rowed; in season 3 or 4 days earlier than Gold- 
en Sunshine. Per pt., 25c.; qt., 45c.; 10 Ibs., 
$1.90; 100 lbs., $16.00.

Market, larger and somewhat earlier. Supply 
limited.” Per«pkt., 15¢e:j7pt.; 30c7;Mat." 50cea10

bles, except slightly larger ear. A valuable 
early corn for the market. Per pt., 25c.; at., 
45c.; 10 Ibs., $1.90; 100 Ibs., $16.00. 
Golden Sunshine. (76 days). Four to five 
days earlier than Golden Bantam; much larger; 
ears 6% to 7 in., with quite uniformly twelve 
rows instead of eight and possessing that su- 
perb quality of the original not found in other 
yellow sorts. Although a slightly smaller ear

Golden Market, it is finer in quality and less 
susceptible to wilt. Per pt., 25c.; qt. 45c.; 10 
Ibs., $1.90; 100 Ibs., $16.00. 
Golden Bantam. (80 days). Original type. 
Medium size, 8-rowed, ears of finest quality, 
which has never been improved on in that 
respect. Many prefer it to the larger sorts and 
Whipple’s Yellow Golden make successive plantings every two weeks up 
Bantam to July 15 for this vicinity. Per pt., 25c.; qt., 
45c.; 10 lIbs., $1.90; 100 Ibs., $16.00.

is excellent. Per pt., 25c.; qt. 45c.; 10 Ibs., $1.90; 100 Ibs., $16.00. 

INTERMEDIATE VARIETIES

Mob. Per pt., 25c.; qt., 45c.; 10 Ibs., $1.90; 100 Ibs., $16.00.
