SWEET CORN EARLY YELLOW KINDS 



THE remarkable advance in popular favor made by 

 the yellow-grained sorts of sugar corn during the past 

 decade is one of the most pleasing proofs that, as a nation, 

 we are beginning to appreciate true quality in vegetables. 

 The flavor of pedigreed yellow sorts is undeniably better 

 than that of the white kinds of similar season. 



After fifteen years of most exhausting tests under 

 widely varying conditions of soil and climate, the nation's 

 critics acclaim Golden Bantam as the standard early yel- 

 low sort, of quality by which other kinds should be judged. 

 A typical ear is illustrated above. Golden Sugar, a new- 

 comer of slightly later maturity (eighty-five days), has a 

 little larger ears, but compares very favorably in flavor 

 with Golden Bantam. Seymour's Sweet Orange is ready 

 in about ninety days after planting. Experts in some 

 sections prefer it to Golden Bantam. It is particularly 

 dependable in cool northern sections.
