STOKES SPECIALS FOR 1933 



SWEET CORN 



KIN0SCROST GOLDEN BANTAM (New) 



Inbred hybrid. 10 days earlier. Complefe evenness 

 in ripening. Probably resistant to Stewart's Disease. 



Days to maturity, 60. A new departure in yellow sweet 

 corn. The hybridization of inbred strains has developed 

 an astonishingly uniform sweet corn of the true eight- 

 rowed Golden Bantam type, maturing ten days earlier 

 than the original. Another result of the cross is great 

 evenness of growth. The stalks are the same height, the 

 ears are in the same position on the stalk and all mature 

 at one time. The harvest is, therefore, controlled by 

 the planting which is a great saving in labor. This new 

 development has yet to be proven in the States afflicted 

 with Stewart's Disease, but we offer it with the confi- 

 dent expectation that it will prove resistant to that 

 scourge which is wiping out the old Golden Bantam in 

 many areas. Kingscrost Golden Bantam is an F' hybrid 

 and thus must be renewed each year from the original 

 parents. This variety must not be confused with Golden 

 Cross Bantam which is a ten-rowed type of Bantam 

 maturing about three weeks later than Kingscrost Golden 

 Bantam. It is the progeny of entirely different parents.

STOKES VANGUARD 



White. Very early. Productive. Excellent Quality. 

 One of the best money-makers. 



Days to maturity, 70. Introduced by Stokes in 1926. As 

 its name implies. Stokes' Vanguard is a leader in the pro- 

 cession of white sweet corn. The stock we offer is un- 

 excelled, — it being the result of ear-to-row selection over 

 a period of years. Will mature seven days earlier than 

 Howling Mob, developing marketable ears slightly over 

 two months. Average length 8 inches. Makes fine market 

 appearance. Table quality excellent. Originally devel- 

 oped by Mr. A. L. Richie, a successful New Jersey 

 grower. This stock is still grown privately for us in its 

 home county. It has proved enormously profitable in 

 many areas.

 High in sugar content.

 County strain. The result of many years personal selec- 

 tion. This may be looked upon as an outstanding stock 

 of the standard late variety. Stalks grow to a height of 

 7 feet. The ears are 8 inches long. Kernels very deep, 

 white, sweet and tender. Growers who desire one of the
