The true 8-rowed strain. America’s old favorite (80 days) \ 
The most widely known yellow sweet corn. The handy sized ears are 5 to6 
in. long with 8 rows of broad, deep golden yellow, sweet kernels. Plants are 
5 to 6 ft. tall. There are many kinds of corn that are larger and some that are 
distinctly earlier, but the rare excellence of Golden Bantam flavor keeps it a 
best-loved variety all over the world.

227 Golden Sunshine 
(74 days) The outstanding feature of this 
variety is the fact that it is both earlier and 
larger eared than Golden Bantam. Instead 
of 8 rows, Golden Sunshine has 10 or 12 
rows of kernels. Plants grow 5 to 5% feet 
tall, many bearing 2 ears. These ears are 
7 in. long, of good girth, and the bright 
golden yellow kernels are closely set to- 
gether. Its sweetness and flavor combined 
with its extreme earliness make it a very pop- 
ular variety. Pkt. 10¢; 14 Ib. 25¢; Ib. 40¢; 
2 Ibs. 75¢; 5 Ibs. $1.75; 10 Ibs. $3.20. 
211 Golden Giant 
(88 days) Golden Giant combines the 
flavor of Golden Bantam with the large size 
of Howling Mob. Ears grow 7 to 8 in. long 
with 12 or 14 rows of creamy yellow kernels. | 
Stalks grow 6 it. tall. This variety is the 
largest and latest standard yellow sweet 
corn we list. You will find Golden Cross 
Bantam will yield much more corn, but 
Golden Giant does have the advantage of 
maturing gradually over a longer period 
than the hybrid.

Planting Guide for 7A Sweet Comm 
Plant the seed after all danger of frost is over and the ground has become thoroughly warm. 
Plant in rows 214 to 4 ft. apart and the seed 8 in. apart in the rows; or put 4 seeds in a hill 
and space the hills 3 by 4 ft. apart. Cover seed with 1 in. of soil. If planted in hills, allow 
2 or 3 plants to remain in each hill. For a continuous supply of good fresh corn make succes- 
sional plantings every 10 to 14 days up to July 10. Allow enough time for your last planting 
to mature before your first expected frost. Never plant corn in a single row; it is necessary 
to plant several rows (3 or 4) side by side. Hybrids show many great advantages over old 
style varieties, but there is one point to remember. Do not save seed from a hybrid crop. 
Seed saved from a hybrid crop gives % less yield, loses uniformity, size, and vigor. Buy fresh 
hybrid seed annually. A packet will plant 4 rows, each 25 ft. long; 1 lb. for 200 hills; 122% Ibs.

241 New Hybrid Jap Hulless % 
(405 days) With hybrid sweet corn and hybrid field corn showing such 
tremendous advantages everywhere, it was inevitable that hybrid pop 
corn would eventually appear to displace the old varieties. Hybrid Jap 
Hulless is a product of the University of Minnesota, and it is an ideal 
example of hybrid superiority. It outyields regular Jap Hulless by 16%, 
and that’s the least important advantage. The biggest step forward is the 
fact that although the kernels look the same they pop 29% larger by 
actual measurement! This hybrid has rapidly monopolized the quality 
pop corn market. Kernels are white, and the ears resemble Japanese 
Hulless, listed below. You probably will not be able to buy this wonderful 
Jap Hulless crop seed for popping, so the way to have some next winter 










Whether it’s popped in a skillet over 
a gas plate, ina fancy electric popper, 
or in a wire basket at the fireplace, 
there’s nothing that brings convivial- 
ity and good cheer so universally as 3 
pop corn. Plan now for next falland 
winter. Just a packet of seed plants”
