SWEET CORN—Late Varieties 
Black Mexican 92 days 
Many people consider this variety the 
sweetest and most delicious table corn 
grown. The ears are 8 in. long with 8 rows 
of kernels. At eating stage the kernels are 
bluish white, but when ripe they are a 
bluish black. 
Country Gentleman or Shoe Peg 
105 days 
One of the best known and widely planted 
varieties. The ears average 8 to 9 in. in 
length, frequently three on a stalk. The white 
kernels are set irregularly on the cob so 
there are no rows. Cob is very small and the 
kernels have great depth. A standard late 
variety for home gardens, market gardens 
and commercial canners. 
Golden or Bantam Evergreen 95 days 
A cross between Golden Bantam and 
Stowell’s Evergreen, combining the buttery 

Country Gentleman 
flavor of the former with the large ear of 
the later. Stalks grow 6 to 7 ft., bearing 
ears 7 to 8 in. long, with straight rows (12 
to 14) of deliciously sweet, golden kernels. 
Narrow Grained Evergreen 94 days 
A selection from Stowell’s Evergreen for 
a deep, narrow kernel. One of the best can- 
ning varieties. Ears are large, 7 to 8 in., 
carrying 18 to 24 rows of kernels which are 
deep, narrow and of excellent quality. Plant 
averages 8 to 9 ft., very vigorous and a good 
yielder. 
Oregon Evergreen 101 days 
Especially adapted to the West Coast. 
The strong, tightly fitting husk gives pro- 
tection against the corn ear worm. Ears are 
9 to 10 in. long with 14 to 16 rows of ker- 
nels. Kernels are deep and in width are be- 
tween Stowells and Narrow Grain Ever- 
green. Color is clear white. Stalk is 7 to 8
