Golden Bantam Sweet Corn 
Sweet or Sugar Corn 
Sweet Corn can be raised on any good, ordinary soil that is thoroughly worked. Plant 6 kernels to the hill, which should be about 
3 feet apart each way, covering seed with about 1 inch of soil firmly pressed down. Thin out to 3 plants to a hill. To grow in rows, plant 
kernels 1 foot apart, in rows 3 feet apart. For succession, plant every two weeks up to July 15.

Stowell’s Evergreen 
Golden Sunshine Sweet Corn 
ALPHA. This is the earliest Sweet Corn for your garden. The ears 
are of good size, 6 to 7 inches long, and are well filled with tender, 
white, sweet kernels of good quality. We can recommend Alpha 
to all who want Corn early in the season. 
GOLDEN ALPHA. One of the very newest introductions in Sweet 
Corn. The ears are from 6 to 8 inches long, with 8 rows of broad, 
keystone-shaped, golden cream kernels which are surprisingly 
sweet, tender, and juicy. One of the earliest of the early Corns. 
The plant is a strong, vigorous grower and crop ripens about three 
weeks earlier than Golden Bantam. 
Golden Gem. The earliest yellow-kerneled Sweet Corn—ready to 
eat nearly 3 weeks before Golden Bantam. Ears short and full of 
sweet, finely flavored kernels. Stalk very dwarf. 
GOLDEN SUNSHINE. This new 
Sweet Corn is 10 days earlier than 
Golden Bantam. The ears are 6 
inches long, filled with tender, 
juicy, sweet kernels, set close 
together in 12 rows instead of 8 as 
in the Golden Bantam. 
WHIPPLE’S YELLOW. This is one 
of the best early yellow Sweet Corns 
that we know. It is ready for use at 
about the same time as Golden 
Bantam, but in most instances can 
be depended on to ripen a few days 
earlier than Bantam. The ears are 
long, running from 8 to 9 inches, 
and carry from 14 to 18 rows of 
deep yellow kernels which are of 
extra-good quality. It is a profitable 
sort for the market-garden and no 
less valuable for the home-garden. 
GOLDEN EVERGREEN. We find a 
few gardeners who want a larger- 
eared Corn than Golden Bantam, 
and we recommend this variety to 
them. The ears are 8 to 10 inches 
long and filled with creamy yellow, 
tender, sweet, and juicy kernels of 
very fine quality. It ripens about 
10 days later than our Bantam. 
Howling Mob. A very sweet and deli¬ 
ciously flavored second-early white 
Sweet Corn, with ears 7 to 9 inches 
long, set with 12 and 14 rows of 
pearly white kernels. 
GOLDEN CROSS BANTAM. One of the newer varieties descending 
from Golden Bantam. The ears are larger and are filled with 
juicy, sweet kernels. Stalks grow from 4 to 5 feet high. Golden 
Cross Bantam is worthy of a trial by all progressive gardeners. Pkg. 
lOq; J-^Ib. 40c; lb. 75c; 2 lbs. $1.35, postpaid. 
WHIPPLE’S EARLY. A splendid early white Sweet Corn ripening 
before Golden Bantam, and its large 16- and 20-rowed ears are filled 
with tender and delicious kernels. 
SPANISH GOLD. Originated at the Connecticut Agricultural 
Experiment Station. Ears 6 to 7 inches long, with 10 rows of sweet 
kernels. Ripens in about 70 days. 
GOLDEN NUGGET. Similar to Golden Bantam, but if planted at 
same time is ready when Golden Bantam is gone. Ears creamy 
yellow; good quality. 
BLACK MEXICAN. Kernels mixed, blue and white, but turn white 
when cooked. Unusually sweet, tender, and prolific. An old-time 
favorite. 
Early Evergreen. About 10 days earlier than StowelPs Evergreen, 
and equally good. 
Country Gentleman. A fine main-crop variety for home-garden, 
market, and canning. The ears are 7 to 9 inches long, covered 
with irregular rows of long, slender white kernels. One of the best 
of the later varieties. 
STOWELL’S EVERGREEN. The standard main-crop Sweet Corn 
for home-garden or market. Ears are very large and filled to the 
tips. The sweet kernels are pure white. Remains fresh and edible 
longer than any other variety. 
POP-CORN 
Pkg. 10c; V 2 lb. 25c; lb. 40c; 5 lbs. $1.75, postpaid 
Japanese Hulless. Ears short and very thick. Kernels long, slender, 
pure white. 
Black Diamond. Ears 4 to 5 inches long. Kernels pop perfectly white. 
Golden Bantam, H. & V. Double-Yield Strain. The finest Corn 
for all seasons, and our Special Strain of this most famous 
yellow Sweet Corn is, we believe, away ahead of any other 
offered. Not only has it the wonderful richness, sweetness, and 
tenderness that make this variety so popular, but to these we 
have added the qualities of a larger and better-filled ear and a 
much greater yield. If you have only a small garden, grow just 
Golden Bantam; sow it in succession so you can have it on 
your table all season long.
