HYBRID YELLOW 



Sweet Corn 



208 Golden Cross Bantam <& 



The standard by which all other hybrids are measured (86 days) 



Because of its seemingly limitless adaptability to all climates and 

 soils, and its rare combination of good qualities, this hybrid is the 

 most widely known of all. It is high yielding, tender, flavorful, and 

 dependable. The plants are wilt resistant, 6 ft. tall, and very uni- 

 form. Each plant generally carries two ears 7 ' l /i to 8 in. long with 

 12 or 14 rows of light golden kernels. Decisively outyields varieties 

 like Whipple's, Golden Giant, etc., but it is so superior to those 

 strains in flavor that it must be compared with Golden Bantam 

 in that respect. 



Pkt. 15(<; V 2 lb. 35^; lb. 65?!; 2 lbs. $1.20; 5 lbs. $2.75; 10 lbs. $5.00. 

 Larger quantities at lower prices. 



232 Carmelcross <& 



Replaces Marcross 39. Fine second-early yellow corn (79 days) 



Carmelcross is a good early hybrid which matures half way 

 between Spancross and Golden Cross Bantam. In areas 

 where early drouth makes Spancross hard to grow 

 Carmelcross is often the first corn to make ears. 

 The ears are 7>£ in. long, with 12 or 14 rows of yel- 

 low kernels of excellent flavor and tenderness. 

 Plants grow 5}4 ft. tall. 



Pkt. 15*!; V 2 lb. 40ft; lb. 70<l; 2 lbs. $1.25; 

 5 lbs. $2.80; 10 lbs. $5.20 

 Larger quantities at lower prices. 



210Golden Hybrids Mixed 



(71-92 days) In this mixture is some 

 of each of the hybrids listed on this 

 page. Since these hybrids mature 

 at different times, a single plant- 

 ing provides corn over a 

 period, of several weeks. If 

 two or more plantings are 

 made there should be 

 roasting ears available 

 for most of the season 

 Be sure to plant at least 

 four rows at a time to 

 insure good pollination

231 Aristogold Bantam Evergreen <& 



The highest yielding, biggest eared yellow sweet corn (92 days) 



Everything about Aristogold is superlative. It's the biggest yield- 

 ing, biggest eared, deepest kerneled, stiffest stalked, darkest green, 



most cold resistant, drouth 

 resistant quality sweet 

 corn you can grow. It has 

 yielded ten tons of mar- 

 ketable ears per acre, and 

 that's astonishing even 

 when reduced to garden 

 size. The ears run 9 to 10 

 in. long with 16 or 18 rows 

 of exceptionally deep, juicy, 

 high quality golden kernels. 

 Husks are tight, resisting ear 

 worms and smut. Plants are 

 sturdy and vigorous, averaging 

 Sj4 ft. tall, free from suckers, and 

 dark green. If you live where corn 

 crops are hurt by wind, heat or 

 drouth, this hybrid answers your 



problem. Pkt. 15(2; y 2 lb. 40|2; lb. 70f!; 

 2 lbs. $1.25; 5 lbs. $2.80; 10 lbs. $5.20. 

 We hope there will be enough for every- 

 body this year.

 earliest corn we offer, and it is really nine full 

 days ahead of Golden Bantam. Ears are 6y£ in.

 Bantam 

 Evergreen 



"The hybrid 



sweet corn 



was the most 



delicious we 



have ever eaten, 



and planting as 



you suggested we 



r had corn to use until 



frost." — Mrs. Leland 



Truxell, Park Ridge, III. 



How long does your corn patch last? Is the season over in 



just a week or two? Does it come in spurts between plantings? 



Here is a way to have a steady supply of corn for eating and 



tanning all summer long. Make balanced succession plantings 



with properly chosen hybrids and your crop will span the very 



extremes of the season.
