which we. have striven—a sweet 
corn of such refinement that it must 
appeal to the most fastidious. 
Its luscious sweetness is the result 
of many years of breeding; its un- 
usual tenderness is due to the gossa- 
mer-like casing of the kernels; its 
daintiness to the pencil-like thickness 







‘to its creamy yellow color.

inal variety is fully retained in the new, 
as well as the ball-shaped ends of the 
kernels. It matures a few days earlier 
than the white.

ears packed with delicious golden grains of

SWEET CORN = white Varieties 
116 METROPOLITAN (Henderson’s) 
The pure white ears are from 8 to 9 inches long and all set 
low. They are 10 to 12 rowed, well filled to the tip with large, 
deep grains, which are very tender. It is not merely sweet, but 
possesses that exquisite richness so well known in the larger and 
later sorts. 
Price, pkt., 10c; % lb., 25c; Ib., 45c; 5 Ibs., $1.75: 
127 POCAHONTAS (Henderson’s) 
The plant is of dwarf habit and very robust. The ears are snow 
white, of good size and are always well filled, having no gaps be- 
tween the rows. The flavor is excellent. 
Price, pkt., 10c; 4% lb., 25c; Ib.; 45c; 5 Ibs., $1.75. 
132 SUGARSWEET (Henderson’s) 
Superlatively Sweet—A Delicious Morsel 
This is one of the earliest varieties. The dainty snow-white ears 
grow to a length of 5 to 6 inches, and each ear has an ample stem 
or handle, which should be left on when cut, so that when served 
at the table the ear will be more convenient to hold. 
The dwarf size of 4 feet enables the suburbanite to raise more 
corn on the same space of ground. It is one of the very few 
varieties that will thrive well in city backyards. 
Price, pkt., 15c; 14 lb., 30c; Ib., 50c; 5 Ibs., $2.00. 
107 COUNTRY GENTLEMAN (Henderson’s) 
The Most Delicious Sweet Corn in the World—Plump, 
Pearly-white, Milky Kernels, Fairly Melting in the Mouth. 
This corn has become justly famous all over the United States and 
in some foreign countries as well. It is at once the delight of 
the epicure and a luxury within the reach of everybody. 
It is of nectar-like sweetness, luscious, tender and milky, and 
remains “‘in the milk’’ longer than other Sweet Corn. The ears 
measure 8 to 9 inches in length, and the plant is very prolific, 
often producing three ears to a stalk. It is a slow-maturing 
variety and arrives at full perfection just in time to succeed 
the earlier varieties. 
Price, pkt., 10c; % Ib., 25c; Ib.. 40c; 5 Ibs., $1.75. 
130 STOWELL’S EVERGREEN 
The Best Late Variety 
Long recognized everywhere as a standard variety, both for 
home use and market, and is a general favorite. The ears are 
of a large size, grains deep, exceptionally tender and sugary, 
and have the advantage of remaining longer in the green 
state than any other. Our stock has been carefully grown and 
selected.
