Nursery stock California San Francisco Catalogs; Vegetables Seeds Catalogs; Herbs Seeds Catalogs; Grasses Seeds Catalogs; Flowers Seeds Catalogs. COLLARDS. French, Chou; German,"B"latter-Kohl. A species of cabbage, known also as Cole, or Colewort, grown throughout the south for greens. Sow in autumn, in rows a foot apart, and treat the same as cabbage. TRUE GEORGIA, or SOUTHERN. leading and best variety. -The Collards CORN, 5WEET. French, Mais; German, Welschkorn; Spanish, Maiz. Corn thrives best in warm, rich soil. The smaller varieties may be planted ten inches apart in drills made two and a half feet apart. The larger kinds should be planted a foot apart in drills made three and a half feet apart, or may be planted in hills three and a half feet apart, each way, allowing three or four stalks to remain in a hill; the latter is the usual way, though in drills the prod- uct is greater per acre. Success can only be secured by thorough cultivation. In cooking the varieties having red cobs, the ears should be dropped into boiling water, and removed as soon as done, or the kernels will become stained. EXTRA EARLY CORY.—The earliest sweet variety yet introduced. It produces the largest ears of any of the very early kinds, and is rapidly growing in favor. When ripe, the grains have a peculiar yellowish pink color. WHITE COB CORY.—An improvement on the Red Cobbed Cory; as well as being equally early. The ears are larger, and it has the further advantage of having both a white cob and white grain. A splendid market garden variety, and excellent for the table. EARLY MINNESOTA.—One of the earliest kinds of sweet corn. The ears are of the best quality; it is very productive. A popular early variety. EARLY PEE AND KAY.—Quite large ears for so early a variety. Ten or twelve rowed, straight and handsome. Fit for the table about the same time as the Early Minnesota. Early Cory. CROSBY'S EARLY A
