These drawbacks we have now overcome, and we now offer this deli- cious corn which will produce ears equal in quality to the best of the later maturing sorts. On stalks averaging SJ feet high, 2 and 3 large ears are produced. These ears are 7 to 8 inches long, with 8, 10 or 12 rows of plump, milky grains of surprising sweet- ness. At our trials in New Jersey this corn was ready in 60 days from the date of planting and is a week or ten days earlier than White Cory, which has up to now been the best quality corn among the extra earlies.

Vines are very prolific, and bear large numbers of fruits, which are edible in about 90 days from time of planting seed. This melon has our highest recommendation.
