ROBSON SEED FARMS * HALL, N. Y. 
ROBSON HYBRID SWEET CORN 
One of the largest Canning Companies in New York State writes us, “Seneca Golden yielded about as well as 
your Golden Cross but the thing which we liked particularly well was that it was a week to ten days earlier than 
Golden Cross.” Note the two uniform ears on each stalk and the very few suckers. 
* SENECA “60”: The earliest yellow hybrid. See 
description and prices on page 4. 
* SENECA GOLDEN : 72 days; 220 kernels per ounce. 
Seneca Golden is a hybrid and might be described as 
an early Golden Cross. The stalks grow 5y feet tall 
and produce two marketable ears on practically every 
stalk. The ears are nearly as large as Golden Cross 
and well filled clear to the tip. The kernels are a 
rich golden yellow and are thought by some to be 
even better in quality than Golden Cross. The seed 
that you receive is small. 5 to 6 pounds will plant an 
acre. Like all hybrids you cannot save the seed and 
produce a satisfactory crop. Pkt. 15 cts.; y lb. 
30 cts.; lb. 55 cts.; 6 lbs. $3.00; 12 lbs. $5.70; 
100 lbs. $45.00. 
T CERTIFIED GOLDEN CROSS BANTAM HY¬ 
BRID: 83 days. 220 kernels per oz. In tests on 
Long Island and in Maryland this past year our white 
tassel Golden Cross led all other strains of this variety 
in yield and uniformity. Our strain shows no red sun 
color on the husks, a characteristic that makes the 
ears of some strains appear to be old. 
Golden Cross is one of the most disease resistant 
varieties that we have tested and has produced ex¬ 
cellent crops in sections where Bacterial Wilt has 
been the worst. 
Stalk 6 feet tall. Ears 8 inches long, 10 to 14 rows 
of broad medium yellow kernels. In tests at Geneva 
Experiment Station Golden Cross held on the stalk 
in edible condition longer than any other variety. 
The kernels of the seed parent used in making this 
cross are small so that it is very necessary that the 
grower shall not plant too thick. We recommend 
not over 6 lbs. to the acre. Many growers use 5 lbs. 
per acre. 
Golden Cross is a true hybrid and we have to make 
the cross each year. You cannot save seed and pro¬ 
duce a satisfactory crop from it. Our seed is certi¬ 
fied. Pkt. 10 cts.; y 2 lb. 30 cts.; lb. 50 cts.; 6 lbs. 
$2.30; 12 lbs. $4.32; 100 lbs. $35.00. 
Golden Cross is becoming more popular each year. 
It is the standard of quality among the hybrids. 
25 lbs. sold at the 100 lb. rate.
