SWEET CORN (Continued) 
Golden Bantam Standard 83 days 
Plants 4V 2 to 5 ft. tall, very productive. 
Ears about 6 in. long with 8 rows of golden 
kernels, tender, sweet and of delicious 
flavor. 
Golden Gem 70 days 
This variety was developed by the North 
Dakota Agricultural Experiment Station 
and is one of the earliest yellow varieties 
offered. It can be picked for eating two 
weeks earlier than Bantam. Plants and ears 
are rather small. Ears are yellow, carrying 
8 to 12 rows. 
Golden Giant 90 days 
This variety is a cross between Golden 
Bantam and Howling Mob, combining the 
delicious buttery flavor of its yellow parent 
with the size and quality of its white parent. 
Stalks 4V 2 to 6 ft., producing two to three 
ears 7 to 9 in. long with 12 to 16 rows of 
deep kernels, orange in color. Heavy husk. 
Golden Sunshine 76 days 
This is a cross between Golden Bantam 
and Early Market, a white variety. It is a 
week earlier than Bantam, plants are slight¬ 
ly smaller. Ears have 10 to 14 rows of 
creamy yellow kernels and are surprisingly 
large for an early variety. 
Spanish Gold 70 days 
A new variety recently introduced by the 
Connecticut Experiment Station. Pure yel¬ 
low, 12 rows, medium length ears. Ready 
for table two weeks earlier than Golden 
Bantam. Equal in earliness with Golden 
Gem but grows much larger plant and is 
more productive, being about equal to 
Golden Bantam in plant size and yield. It 
promises to be a popular variety. 
Second Early Varieties 
Early Evergreen 93 days 
A very popular white kernel variety almost identical to Stowell’s Evergreen, but 5 
days earlier. Ears 8 in. long with 12 to 14 rows of deep-set, tender, sweet, white kernels. 
Country Gentleman 
Late Varieties 
Country Gentleman or Shoe 
Peg 1 05 days 
One of the best known and widely 
planted varieties. The ears average 
8 to 9 in. in length, frequently three 
on a stalk. The white kernels are set 
irregularly on the cob so there are 
no rows. Cob is very small and the 
kernels have great depth. A stand¬ 
ard late variety for home gardens, 
market gardens and commercial can- 
ners. 
Golden Evergreen 95 days 
A cross between Golden Bantam and 
Stowell’s Evergreen, combining the 
buttery flavor of the former with the 
large ear of the latter. Stalks grow 
6 to 7 ft., bearing ears 7 to 8 in. long, 
with straight rows (12 to 14) of de¬ 
liciously sweet, golden kernels. 
Improved Blk. Mexican 92 da. 
Many people consider this variety 
the sweetest and most delicious 
table corn grown. The ears are 8 in. 
long with 10 rows of kernels. At 
eating stage the kernels are bluish 
white, but when ripe they are a 
bluish black. 
StowelPs Evergreen 1 00 days 
This is the old standard variety for 
home gardens, market gardens and 
canners. Stalks 7 to 8 ft.; ears 8 in. 
long with 16 or more rows of the 
finest, sugary, white grains. Very 
productive. 
Stowell’s Evergreen 
SWEET CORN For Fodder 
Early Sweet Fodder 
A mixture of early varieties of sweet corn 
which makes early and nutritious fodder. It 
is ready for feeding at a time when pastures 
are frequently short. Stalks grow about 5y 2 
feet tall with plenty of ears. 
Evergreen Sweet Fodder 
Our seed is of regular Evergreen Sweet 
Corn, not of high enough quality for produc¬ 
ing the best table corn, but very satisfactory 
for fodder. Stalks 6 to 7 ft. tall with large 
sweet ears.
