Salzer’s Independence or 4th of J uly Corn | 
Our Largest Eared, Heaviest Yielding, Extra Early Sweet Corn aa 
Our sales of this Sweet Corn have been enormous 
and are increasing from year to year. Our supply, 
although always larger than that of the preceding

the country in the last few years than of any other 
extra early sort. Matures in 60 days.

about 10 inches long, which are very symmetrical and 
handsome. The grains, which are tightly set, are large,

first place to none for extreme extra-earliness, and is the
