1935 SPRING AND FALL THE HOUSE OF GURNEY, INC. YANKTON, SOUTH DAKOTA 
CORN—SWEET OR SUGAR—Delicious Roasting Ears for Two Months 
1 Lb. for 100 Hills, 13 Lbs. per Acre— Sweet corn should not be planted more than X\/i inches deep 
M OST of us make a single planting of sweet corn; consequently, we 
have those delicious ears for just a few days a year. You can spread 
this season over two months by planting different varieties at the 
s&me time maturing at different seasons; or by planting same varieties if 
you have a choice, a week or ten days between each planting. In the little 
town garden, a short row or maybe two or three dozen hills planted as early 
in May as possible, then two weeks later another row between potato rows 
and continue this for several plantings. You will be surprised at the increased 
value of this little garden. On the farm, plant a good acreage, enough to 
supply the house every day and a sufficient quantity for canning and drying. 
Golden Sunshine 
Golden Sunshine Sweet Corn 
An outstanding new variety of yellow corn, of 
exceptional merit. It was originated at the North 
Dakota Agricultural College. The ears are big¬ 
ger than those of Golden Bantam, are 16 rowed, 
and of deliciously rich flavor, light yellow in color. 
Sunshine is ready for use 6 to 10 days earlier 
than Bantam. The stalks are quite dwarf, with 
the ears set only 2 to 3 feet from the ground, 
usually 2 ears to the stalk. Those who have 
tried it are highly enthusiastic, and say it is 
real sweet corn. 
It is the sweetest and the nicest corn I know 
of; good yielder, and exceptionally good corn for 
the market gardener. Prices: !4 pt., 15c; 
1 lb., 30c; 5 lbs., $1.15; 10 lbs.. $2.00; 25 lbs., 
$4.60; 50 lbs., $8.50; 100 lbs., $15.90. 
Golden Bantam 
Fifty per cent of the sweet corn planted in the 
United States is of the Golden Bantam variety. 
It is one of the earliest and sweetest, yielding 
very heavily, producing good sized ears of the 
most excellent quality. On account of the hardi¬ 
ness of this variety it.allows early planting, 
consequently it reaches the roasting ear stage 
very early. You can sow this as early as any 
variety of field corn. The stalks grow only about 
4 to 5 feet high and bear generally two good 
ears to the stalk. When ready for use the kernels 
are rich golden yellow color — a mighty satisfying 
sweet corn. Prices: Vi pt., 12c; 1 lb., 25c; 
5 lbs., $1.00; 10 lbs., $1.85; 25 lbs., $4.25; 
50 lbs., $7.95; 100 lbs., $14.90. 
60-Day White 
Among the many extra early sweet corns re¬ 
cently introduced, this stands out because of its 
extreme earliness, large ear and good quality. 
With our market gardeners who have tried it, 
"60-Day White” has been highly profitable. 
Height 3 feet, ears 10 to 12-rowed, 6 to 7 inches 
in length. Prices: Vs pt., 15c; 1 lb., 30c; 5 lbs., 
$1.20; 10 lbs., $2.20; 25 lbs., $5.15; 50 lbs.,

Golden Gem Sweet Corn 
Truly, present-day accomplishments are little 
short of marvels! After having produced 
Golden Sunshine Corn, a remarkable early yellow 
sweet corn, Prof. A. F. Yeager, Horticulturist at 
the North Dakota Agricultural College Experi¬ 
ment Station, has bred Golden Gem Sweet Corn, 
which is days earlier than that famous variety. 
The ears are of good size, averaging 7 to 8 
inches in length, and are borne close to the 
ground on stalks about 3 Vz feet high. From one 
to three ears are produced on each stalk. Golden 
Gem is eight rowed; kernels are quite deep, 
broad, meaty, rich golden yellow, very tender 
and of the sweetest and most sugary flavor 
imaginable. The greatest feature, however, is 
its extreme earliness! With Golden Gem, market 
gardeners may secure even better prices and home 
gardeners may have absolutely the very earliest 
yellow sweet corn! Prices: V 3 pt., 15c; 1 lb., 
35c; 5 lbs., $1.45; 10 lbs., $2.50; 25 lbs., $5.50;
