In my classification of sweet corn, already referred to, I had 
arranged my varieties substantially as in the above table but with 
the following exceptions: , 
Asylum in Race B. - 
Brighton Orange in Race B. 
Crosby’s Early in Race B. 
Golden Sweet in Race A. 
Potter’s Excelsior in Race C. 
Rochester in Race A. 
Squantum in Race B. 
It will be well to investigate these discrepancies, and in so doing, 
we note: 
-Asyitum. — Belongs by description to race B, and we can suggest 
that this was carried to race A in our hybridization classification 
by receiving pollen from a stray plant of class Bb, Black Mexican, 
whereby we were deceived. ‘This is a probable explanation. 
Brieuton Orance. — This is a synonym of Orange Early and 
Orange. It is said to be a hybrid between the Va@rragansett, 
race A, and Moore's Harly, race B, and hence is liable to throw 
both forms of ears. As grown in 1884, Brighton Orange 
(Gregory), and Orange Karly (Sibley) belong by description to 
race A, while Orange Sweet (Parker & Gannett) belongs to race 
B, and answers the description of fig. 350, Rural New Yorker, 
1884. It is probable that we have, in this variety, two forms, 
which are distinct, and yet which are grown together, and that 
our classification is correct in both instances for the varieties 
studied. 
Crossy’s Earty, — This corn appears to have two types, but the
