SWEET CORN — Continued 
WHIPPLE’S EARLY WHITE 87 Days 
An excellent mid-season variety with deep kernel, desirable for home and 
market garden. Stalk, 5^2 to 7 feet, strong and erect, commonly bearing 
two ears 7 to 8 inches long, 14- to 18-rowed, well filled at tips; kernels 
deep, medium narrow, pure white, sweet and tender. 
WHIPPLE’S EARLY YELLOW 81 Days 
A remarkable yellow sweet corn of much merit. While the stalks grow 
6 feet or more in height and the 10- to 14-rowed ears are 7 to 8 inches 
in length this variety matures only three days later than Golden Bantam. 
The kernels are broad, deep and of excellent quality. 
HYBRID SWEET CORN 
GOLDEN CROSS BANTAM 84 Days 
A bright yellow, 12-rowed corn with 8-inch ears borne well up on a sturd}^ 
stalk. The quality is fully equal to Golden Bantam in every way, matures 
six days later and is two to three times as productive. In addition, this 
corn is very resistant to the bacterial wilt known as Stewart’s Disease, 
which often causes failure with other early yellow sweet corns. We can¬ 
not recommend this corn too highly for canners and table use. 
HYBRID COUNTRY GENTLEMAN 90 Days 
Like the open pollinated strains in all ways pins a greater uniformity in 
stalk type and a more uniform ear type without the usual high percentage 
(^f nubs and crippled ears, resulting in greater tonnage per acre yield and 
a greater cut i^er ton for the canner. 
MICHAEL-LEONARD SOO-BRED 78 Days 
Award of Merit 1935 All American Seed Trials. 
I'his is the first year we have been able to produce enough of this out¬ 
standing corn to offer it in limited quantity to our own trade and we are 
sure you will be as enthusiastic about it as we are. The 9 to 10^ inch ears 
are 16-rowed with deep, narrow, rich yellow kernels — tender, very sweet 
and exceptionally well flavored; stalk 6 to 7^2 feet. An enormous producer. 
Matures a week earlier than Bantam Evergreen. 
MICHAEL-LEONARD’S HYBRID GOLDEN HUMMER 60 Days 
Like the open ])ollinated but more productive, more uniform, and has a 
higher sugar content. 
TENDERGOLD 72 Days 
A very fine corn of outstanding quality introduced by us after years of 
researcli. Four days earlier than Golden Bantam and generally twice as 
productive, the attractive 8-inch, 12-rcwed ears commanding a premium on 
the market. For tenderness and succulence we have never seen its equal, 
and it holds this fine quality two to three days longer than other corns.' 
Produces heavy crops in areas where Golden Bantam succumbs to bac¬ 
terial wilt (Stewart’s Disease) and compares favorably with the Ever¬ 
greens in canning cost. 
HYBRID EARLY EVERGREEN 85 Days 
lake the open iiollinated in all respects plus far greater uniformity in stalk 
anl leaf tyi)e and a far more uniform ear type with less small, deformed 
ears and nnbs, resulting in a greater tonnage per acre yield and a higher 
cut per ton for the canner. 
HYBRID BANTAM EVERGREEN 80 
Stalk 6 to 7 feet. Ear 9 to 9J^ inches, 14-rowed with deep, rich yellow 
kernels, tender, sweet and well flavored. Earlier, more productive, more 
uniform and far better in every way than open pollinated Bantam Ever¬ 
green.
