196 Stluer Cress Bantam 
A REMARKABLE NEW WHITE HYBRID SWEET CORN (86 DAYS) 
i Silver Cross Bantam is the answer to the need for a really high quality white 
sweet corn. It is the first successful attempt to breed white corn that can compete 
with the fanciest yellow types, and it not only competes with them, but comes 
out on top in any test. 
We sincerely believe that no matter what white variety you may have planted, 
Silver Cross Bantam will easily surpass it in tenderness, sweetness, and flavor. 
We moreover believe that there is no corn grown, no matter what color or 
maturity, that is as tender as this new hybrid, either when eaten on the cob or 
when canned. : 
Silver Cross Bantam is a true bantam type, with plants 6 feet high, and maturity 
only 6 days later than Golden Bantam. The ears are 12 or 14 rowed, 8 in. long, 
with broad, glistening white kernels. There are no spindly, weak plants; every 
stalk carries one or two marketable ears; the uniformity of both plant and ear is 
really astonishing. 
This grand new corn corresponds to its yellow twin, Golden Cross Bantam, in 
respect to ear size, type and sweetness, plant height, wilt resistance, and 
maturity. It is superior to it in tenderness, yield, and strength of stalk. 
We realize that we have been unusually enthusiastic in describing Silver Cross 
Bantam, but we are confident that it is everything we say it is, and we hope that 
our confidence will lead many of our friends to try this outstanding new white- 
kerneled hybrid sweet corn. .

THE LEADING YELLOW-KERNELED HYBRID SWEET CORN (86 DAYS) a 
In spite of a great deal of competition from newly developed hybrids, Golden # | 
Cross Bantam maintains its position as the absolute leader in hybrid corn ol 
popularity. This fine, yellow-kerneled corn is adapted to a wider range of soil 
and weather conditions than any other corn, and it has proved itself to be almost 
immune to bacterial wilt. The things that make it most popular, however, are 
extremely high yield (more than double Golden Bantam) in combination with 
rare flavor and sweetness. Plants are 6 ft. tall, leafy, and vigorous. Ears are * 
12 or 14 rowed and 7% to 8 inches long. Kernels are light golden yellow, deep, 
sweet, and flavorful. ri

320 Imperial 44 Lettuce 
THE MOST DEPENDABLE HEAD LETTUCE (80 DAYS) 
We offered this head lettuce to our customers last year, and 
the result was so gratifying that we are again placing it in 
this prominent position. Imperial 44 was bred in California, 
but its adaptability to eastern conditions is simply remark- 
able. It is a low-growing head with thick, heavily savoyed, 
dark green leaves. The head is slightly flattened, extremely 
compact, 5 to 6% in. in diameter, very solid, and weighs 
114 lbs. under good conditions. Since it is such a sure header, 
even in hot, dry weather, it is the kind for you if you've had 
difficulty in growing crisp head lettuce. 
Pkt. 15¢; oz. 40¢; 14 Ib. $1.25; 14 Ib. $2.25; 
Ib. $4.25; 2 Ibs. $8.25; 5 Ibs. $20.00. 
719 Victor Jomale .- 
ALL-AMERICA WINNER (58 DAYS) 
We already offer such a complete list of 
tomato varieties that we hesitate to add 
new ones. However, after careful con- 
sideration we have decided to introduce 
Victor to our customers. The merits this 
new tomato possesses are earliness, good size and color, and 
the ability to mature a large portion of its crop the very first 
part of the season. The scarlet fruits are 3 in. across, flattened 
globe shape, and mature at the same time as Earliana.
