GOLDEN COUNTRY GENTLEMAN. 



This variety was introduced by us in 1926, and it combines all the sugary sweetness and 

 tenderness of the original Country Gentleman, with the rich, sweet flavor and color of Golden 

 Bantam. The ears are practically as large (averaging 6 to 7 inches long) as White Country 

 Gentleman. The kernels are without row formation, and the remarkable depth of kernel 

 characterizing the white parent, is fully retained in the new variety. The plants are vigorous, 

 uniform and productive, producing two well formed ears to a stalk. Matures in approximately 

 87 days.
