Stowell's llvergreen Sugar.— This is not
only the most celebrated, but the most pop-
ular of all varieties, although not an early
sort. It is, without anj- exception, the best
for table use of the entire lot. although quite
late. Some ma.- observe they have tried it
and find it not equal to the ordinary sugar. To
such we say you have not had the pure stock,
as no varietj' degenerates so quickly without
the grower is exceedingly careful. "We have
very frequently observed samples sent out by
some seed establishments as Stowell's Ever-
green that were composed of several varieties,
caused by being grown in the vicinity.

jsple's First Early Neck Corn. — Gillespie's Extra
Neck Corn is the first in the market and often brings
large prices because it has the market all to itself. It ma-
tures very quick, but has an additional advantage — this corn
does not rot when planted early, hence gets a long start on
tender sorts. Ear. .5c. Dozen. 2.5c. Pint. 10c. Quart. 15c.

»- Imitation or Burlington Hybrid is a cross between
Adam's Extra Early and a large-eared, productive variety
of Sugar Corn. Its great market value can be readily seen
from the fact that it is as carln a^ the Adam's, with an ear
fully as large as Stoivell's Evergreen, and more productiue
than -either, producing equal to the most prolific field corn,
it having frequently produced over one hundred bushels to
the acre grown for a field crop. Although not legitimately
a Sugar Corn, yet the husks, blades and ear in a green state
exactly resembles the sugar varieties, and it sells readilj' in
the market as a sweet or sugar corn.

, Ked Cob 90-l)ay Corn.— This corn meets a felt want of
the market gardener, because it suits the retail market — ,
sales for a tall corn, and when fully mature makes a first-
class crop corn for feeding to stock. The ear is large and
handsome and suits for an early crop or for a late crop, be-
cause it matures in ninety days. This makes it always a safe
and profitable crop.

FIELD CORN.-3fIb-.ncrn
Mammoth Golden Beauty Corn.— Xew variety : has the
largest ears of any 100-day corn. It outyields any and all
other corn. The increased yield repaj's the cost of the seed
many times over. Growers should make sure of getting the
largest yield and most handsome grain to meet the competi-
tion of the times and secure the highest prices. Ears
usually average from nine to twelve inches long and from
twenty to thirty rows on the cob. and some of the stalks
bearing three to five ears. Then why use your poor stock
any longer? It attracted a great deal of attention in '97.

CULTURE OF CORN.
Plant for early use soon as the season allows, and at inter-
vals until last of July. The soil should be very rich, or the
hills may be enriched by incorporating rotten manure pre-
vious to planting. Plant in hills three or four feet apart.
Allot eight grains to each hill, but never allow more than
three plants to stand. Thorough cultivation is necessary to
