The Golden Yellow Kinds 



Since the recognition of the unique flavor of Golden Bantam, our customers have put aside 

 to a great extent, the prejudice formerly held against yellow corn. We highly recommend the 



following: 



318 Golden Bantam. Our extra selected strain produces ears measuring about 6 to 7 inches, 

 holding uniformly 8 well-filled rows of broad, tender kernels of deliciously sweet flavor and 

 tender quality. Now recognized everywhere as one of the finest for the home garden. 

 Pkt., 10 cts., postpaid. | lb., 25 cts.; lb., 40 cts.; 2 lbs., 75 cts.; 10 lbs., |3.00. 



320 Golden Cream. A cross of Country Gentleman and Golden Bantam, taking on the 

 character of the former variety, except in color. The ears are ready for use within 85 to 90 

 days after seeds were sown. Grains are long and pointed, rich cream color when ready, but 

 turn to light golden-yellow when cooked. Stalks make a healthy, rapid growth, producing 

 an average of three ears each. Pkt., 10 cts., postpaid; -J lb., 25 cts.; lb., 40 cts.; 2 lbs., 

 75 cts.; 10 lbs., §3.00. 



324 Golden Giant. As its name implies this is the largest of the yellow sugar varieties, the 

 ears measuring up to 8 inches long. The cob is of small diameter, and contains twelve to 

 eighteen rows of long, thick grains which cover the entire surface and are deep orange in 

 color, extremely juicy and sweet. Pkt., 10 cts., postpaid; | lb., 25 cts.; lb., 40 cts.; 21bs., 

 75 cts.; 10 lbs., $3.00. 



CORN, SWEET OR SUGAR 



Mais, Fr. Maiz, Sp. Mais, Ger. 



One pound will plant about 100 hills, or 150 to 350 feet of jow. 



Culture — Seed is liable to rot if planted in cold ground. Yet if we have an early warm spell in 

 spring, it may pay to take some risk, as often the plants, when once up, escape injury by frost. About 

 middle of May plant in hills 3 feet apart each way, covering about 8 or 10 seeds half an inch and-thin 

 out to three plants to a hill, or plant in rows 3 feet apart, and thin out plants to stand 12 inches 

 apart in the rows. For succession plant early sorts every two weeks up to July 15th.
