Golden Cross Bantam 
Tasty Golden Yellow Sweet 
318 Golden Bantam. Though many varieties of Sweet Corn have been 
bred since the introduction of Golden Bantam none so far has surpassed 
it in sweetness and distinct buttery flavor. Its handy size—the ears 
measure about 6 inches in length—makes it particularly desirable for eating 
from the cob and its sweet buttery flavor has made it the foremost home 
garden variety. Another feature is its remarkable earliness. Pkt. 10c; 
3 Ib. 25c; lb. 45c; 2 lbs. 75c; 5 Ibs. $1.75, prepaid.

Suited particularly for cooler sections. Matures its golden- 
grained ears 7 or 8 days before Golden Sunshine. Has a remarkable short, 
stout stalk that appeals to most home gardeners. Sweet and toothsome.
