Honey Boy— 
v in sugar 
content, handsome, attractive, tender and juicy, Salzer’s 
Honey Boy is popular with the market gardener, as matur¬ 
ing in 55 days in this northern climate, it enables him to 
get the first edible sweet corn to market and to reap the 
consequent high prices. Popular with the home gardener as 
it enables him to grow delicious, melting quality sweet 
corn for his table in an astonishingly short time. 
Honey Boy Is a Desirable Extra Early Corn 
Developed for a short season, it is one of the best extra 
early sweet corns for any district and especially for the en¬ 
tire Northwest. Like all extra-early varieties, the stalks 
are slender and grow 4 to 5 feet high, and the ears are about 
sixteen inches above the ground. Being a free stooler, it 
shoots up many stalks, hence is a heavy yielder. Ears are 
straight and uniform, handsome, nicely rounded at the tips, 
average 7 inches in length and contain 12 to 14 rows of 
creamy white, fat, plump, sweet and delicious kernels. 
Praise for Honey Boy 
Our sweet corn specialist, Mr. Albert Loeffler, at Cliff- 
wood Farms, says, “Mr. Salzer, you can stake Salzer’s rep¬ 
utation on our claims that Honey Boy is one of the earliest 
and one of the very best Sweet Corns in America. We have 
tried all of the extra early varieties that we have ever seen 
catalogued or that we have ever heard of, and Honey Boy 
outshines them all. Honey Boy is really 
extra early, it gives a better yield, and 
it has a better cob which brings higher 
prices at market as well as delighting 
the home gardener.” Be sure to give it 
a trial this year.

Kingscrost 
Golden Bantam 
Uniformity of ears, uniformity in 
maturing, earliness, eating quality 
and tremendous yield, mark the 
characteristics of this fine sweet 
corn! The yield in dozens of mar¬ 
ketable ears per acre is much greater 
than that of ordinary Golden Ban¬ 
tam, each ear being almost identical 
with every other one in length, size 
and shape. 
The beautiful ears are a golden yel¬ 
low' color, broad, about 7 inches long, 
rounded at the tips and remarkably uni¬ 
form, with kernels tightly set, broad, 
meaty, tender and sugary. About ten 
days earlier than Golden Bantam. 
Salzer’s Kingscrost Golden Bantam 
was developed primarily for market 
gardeners, but home gardeners will also 
be delighted with it. It is a double cross 
between inbred strains of Golden Ban¬ 
tam, the inbred strains having been fer¬ 
tilized with their own pollen every year 
for ten years, finally producing this re¬ 
markable strain.

During the past few years, 
sweet corn growers have suf¬ 
fered enormously heavy losses 
from Stewart’s Disease or Wilt. 
The only remedy is disease-re¬ 
sistant seed and Purdue Cross 
Golden Bantam has been giving 
remarkably large yields on 
badly infected soil! It is prov¬ 
ing a big boon wherever sweet 
corn growing has been impossi¬ 
ble the last few years. Purdue 
Cross Golden Bantam was de¬ 
veloped by Prof. G. M. Smith of 
Purdue University over a long 
period of years, by using line 
breeding, or inbreeding, on 
plants that showed resistance to 
wilt, on infected soil. 
The ears are about eight 
inches long, beautifully uniform 
in size and shape, and varying 
in the number of rows, having 
from 10 to 14 rows. The thick, 
sugary kernels of Purdue Cross 
Golden Bantam are tender and 
sweet, meaty, of finest quality, 
and of a beautiful golden yel¬ 
low color. Stalks are 6 feet 
high and produce two ears on 
each stalk under favorable con¬ 
ditions. Matures in 76 days. If 
you have Wilt in your soil, don’t 
fail to give this grand corn a 
trial. 384—Pkg., 15c; % lb.,
