Marblehead Early Sweet Corn Corn
When I introduced the Marblehead Early Corn it was the earliest of all the varieties of market size known among seedsmen; but this season I introduce the Cory Sweet Corn, as an earlier variety. Nevertheless until the Cory becomes more common the Marblehead will still remain the standard early sweet corn for general cultivation. In all characteristics except earliness the Marblehead bears a close resemblance to the Narragansett. The stalk is dwarf in its habit of growth, and its ears very low down. It is of good market size and very sweet. There are many positive opinions from editors and gardeners on the Marblehead Early Sweet Corn. Pkt., 10c; qt., postpaid, 50c; bus., $4.00
