SWEET CORN CONTINUED 
Golden Bantam 
GOLDEN SUNSHINE A very choice early yellow corn, growing- stalks 4*4 to 
5 feet high, the ears averaging 7 inches in length. In many cases there are two 
ears on a stalk. The cob has usually 12 rows, and is well filled. The flavor is 
very fine, and the ears are attractive when ready for market. Matures in about 
75 days. Lb., 20c; 12^4 lbs., $2.25 ; 50 lbs., $8.00. 
GOLDEN BANTAM The most popular and finest flavored corn ever introduced. 
The ear is small, though we now have a strain with ears slightly longer on the 
average than the older stocks, and has 8 rows of wide, deep kernels. The small 
size of the ear is more than made up for by the flavor. This is Connecticut 
grown stock, which is true of our other corn also. Matures in about 80 days. 
Lb., 20c; 12*4 lbs., $2.25; 50 lbs., $8.00. Selected ears $5.00 per 100. 
WHIPPLE'S EARLY YELLOW A popular large eared yellow corn, having an ear 
nearly or quite twice as large as Golden Bantam, yet maturing at about the same 
time. The ears average 8 inches or more in length, with 12 rows of fine sweet 
kernels. Matures in about 80 days. Lb., 20c; 12*4 lbs., $2.25; 50 lbs., $8.00. 
Selected ears $5.00 per 100. 
MID-SEASON VARIETIES 
GOLDEN ROD A mid-season yellow corn of real merit. It is of the Golden 
Bantam type, but the ears are longer and have 14 rows. Average length of ear, 
seven inches. The stalks are also taller than Golden Bantam, averaging nearly 
seven feet. It is a very good variety to follow Bantam, on account of its larger 
size, fine color and flavor. Lb., 20c; 12^4 lb., $2.25; 50 lbs., $8.00. Selected 
ears $5.00 per 100. 
GOLDEN GIANT A valuable yellow variety, similar in many respects to 
Golden Rod, and maturing in about the same time, about 85 days. The ears, 
often two or three to a stalk, are 6 to 7 inches long and have 12 to 18 rows. 
Lb., 20c; 12}4 lbs., $2.25; 50 lbs., $8.00. 
HOWLING MOB A medium early variety with large ears, averaging some 
8 inches long, white and of very fine flavor. This variety is used by many 
market gardeners serving a section where white corn is popular. The ears have 
12 rows, and are mature in about 85 days. Lb., 20c; 12^4 lbs., $2.25; 50 lbs., 
$8.00. Selected ears $5.00 per 100. 
PRIDE OF MILFORD A fine second-early white corn with exceptionally large ears, 
which are crowded with very sweet kernels. This is a favorite market garden 
sort, owing in part to its attractive appearance with its green streamers, but still 
more to its flavor. Lb., 20c; 12^4 lbs., $2.25; 50 lbs., $8.00. Selected ears 
$6.00 per 100. 
BLACK MEXICAN Although the seed is nearly black, the green corn is pure white color, the eating quality 
very fine. The ears are about 9 inches long and generally 8 rowed. Matures in about 85 days, and as the flavor 
is excellent, it is a very good hame garden variety. Lb., 20c; 12^4 lbs., $2.25; 50 lbs., $8.00. 
IMPROVED GOLDEN BANTAM This is a second early variety which does not resemble Golden Bantam in any 
particular except color and flavor. The ears grow to be 8 inches long, have 12 rows, and mature in about 85 
days. Lb., 20c; 12^4 lbs., $2.25; 50 lbs., $8.00. Selected ears $5.00 per 100.
