HYBRID SWEET CORNS 
WHITE HYBRIDS 
We caution our customers not to try to save their own 
seed, as hybrids must be produced each year by crossing 
and will not give satisfactory results unless this is done. 
TOPCROSSED EVERGREEN This topcross produces 
12-16 rowed tapering ears about 8}4 inches long. 
The kernels are deep and of high quality. The 
stalks are slender, about 7}4 feet tall and well rooted. 
It matures in the same season as Early Evergreen, 
but produces 10 to 20% more ears because of the 
elimination of barren stalks and nubbin bearing 
stalks. In a good season on rich soil this hybrid 
will produce about 30% two-eared stalks. Lb., 60c; 
12y 2 lbs., $6.50; 50 lbs., $22.50. 
TOPCROSSED NARROW GRAIN A topcrossed 
Evergreen hybrid. While its maturity and charac¬ 
teristics are almost identical with Narrow Grain 
Evergreen variety, this hybrid is less susceptible to 
lodging and disease. Through the elimination of 
barren and nubbin bearing stalks, this topcross easily 
produces 30% more corn than the Narrow Grain 
Evergreen. At Milford the ears are 18-26 rowed, 
about 7 l / 2 inches long, cylindrical and well filled at 
the tips. Lb., 50c; 12^ lbs., $6.00; 50 lbs., $20.00. 
EVERGREEN HYBRID "A" This single cross produces 
14-18 rowed, cylindrical ears about 7^4 inches long. 
The kernels are deep, of high quality and more 
uniform than our Topcrossed Evergreen. This is 
heavier stalked, very wind resistant, produces few 
if any suckers and grows about 7 feet tall. Matures 
earlier than Stowells Evergreen and later than Early 
Evergreen. Lb., 60c; 12^4 lbs., $6.50; 50 lbs., $22.50. 
EVERGREEN HYBRID "B" A single cross which pro¬ 
duces 12-16 rowed, cylindrical or slightly tapering 
ears about 8}4 inches long. The kernels are broad, 
fairly deep and of high quality. This hybrid has 
slender stalks, free from suckers, which are well 
rooted and about 8 feet tall. In a normal season 
on fertile soil this hybrid produces 50 to 75% two¬ 
eared stalks and will out-yield Stowell’s Evergreen 
25 to 40%. Lb., 60c; 12>4 lbs., $6.50; 50 lbs., $22.50. 
TOPCROSSED STOWELL'S A new topcross, which 
is a hybrid of our deep-kerneled Stowell’s Evergreen 
and a White Evergreen Inbred. Its particular fea¬ 
tures are deep kernels on a small, cylindrical cob.

plants well-rooted, suckerless and 7^4 to 9 feet tall.
