AUNT MARY’S SWEET CORN 
We offer this grandest and sweetest of all Sweet Corn on the market. 
ORDER EARLY. There is never enough to fill late orders. 
Never was sweet corn that tasted as sweet. It will stay in good condition for table use for 
two or three weeks. It stays in milk so long that natural ripening is impossible; ears that were 
ready for table use in October were still in milk when hard frosts killed the plants in November. 
BY ALL MEANS GIVE THIS SWEET CORN A TRIAL THIS YEAR AND YOU WILL COME BACK 
FOR MORE NEXT YEAR. Make your first planting during May two weeks apart; make another 
one the second week in June, another the last week in June, and the last planting the first week in 
July, and this will furnish you sweet green ears until early October. 
We have had reports from customers having the ears for table use for Thanksgiving. They had 
made late plantings of seed in June and July. 
PRICE OF SEED. Enough for 50 to 75 hills. 25c. 3 PACKS for 70c, % pound will produce ap- 
proximately 500 plants and cost 70c, postpaid, West of the Rocky Mountains; 75¢ postpaid, 
East of the Rocky Mountains. 
SPECIAL PRICE BY THE POUND, West of the Rockies, $1.30 postpaid; $1.40 East of the Rockies.
