Synopsis
Excerpt from Vegetable and Flower Seed Catalogue, 1907
This variety was brought to this country by Professor Hansen, an' agent sent out by the Depart ment of Agriculture in search of new vegetable products worthy of introduction into the United States. This new early sweet corn has been highly spoken of for family use by some of the professors of our Agricultural College who have had it under trial. We raised about an acre of it the past season and can, therefore, speak of it from personal experience. The stocks are very dwarf, growing to about three feet in height yet full of lusty health. The earliest it is in eating condition is about the' time of the earliest strain of Cory. The ears are aboutfive inches long and fill out well to their tips. The color of the kernel is from purest white to a shade of amber. In quality the Malakoff is tender and very sweet, in the latter characteristic surpassing the Cory. Will the number Of ears on a stalk it beats any variety of sweet corn we remember to have raised, averaging two ears to a stalk while some stalks bear three and four.& Perhaps a little too small for the market, yet we shall do wisely to welcome the Russian stranger into our home gardens.
