(Sweet Corn—Continued) 
♦GILL'S IMPROVED GOLDEN BANTAM—Su¬ 
perior to the original Golden Bantam in Quality and 
nearly twice the size* also one week earlier. Nearly 
all ears carry 12 rows of deep, rich, golden yellow 
kernels set close upon the cob. Do not compare this 
with the original strain, as it is far superior in 
every respect, and any gardener who places this 
corn on the market will command better sales and 
prices. 
It has no superior for market, table, canning or 
drying. We carry the exclusive seed of this im¬ 
proved strain. Remember, we are improving this 
variety every year, and if you wish the up-to-date 
selection buy direct from us. We have received 
many letters of praise for this corn and its good 
Qualities represent 20 years of earnest work on our 
part. Many of our customers will have nothing 
else. Postpaid. Pkt. 10c; £ lb. 20c; lb. 35c. Not pre¬ 
paid, lb. 25c; 10 lbs. @ 18c; 25 lbs. @ 17c; 
100 lbs. @ 16c. 
♦TOP CROSS IMPROVED GOLDEN BANTAM— 
A top cross hybrid of our Improved Golden Ban¬ 
tam with Purdue 39. Three or four days later than 
Improved Golden Bantam, but more vigorous and 
produces a heavier tonnage per acre. Postpaid. 
Pkt. 10c; £ lb. 25c; lb. 40c. Not prepaid, 10 lbs. @ 25c. 
♦GOLDEN CROSS BANTAM—A hybrid sweet 
corn especially valuable where Stewart’s disease 
(wilt) makes it impossible to grow ordinary va¬ 
rieties. Excellent for market gardeners and can- 
ners. 12 row ears, more resistant to worm damage 
and heaviest yielding of any yellow sweet corn 
variety. Matures very uniformly. Postpaid. Pkt. 10c; 
£ lb. 25c; lb. 40c. Not prepaid, 10 lbs. @ 25c. 
♦GOLDEN GIANT—Large, golden yellow ears of 
high Quality. A cross between Howling Mob and 
Golden Bantam. Matures about ten days after Im¬ 
proved Golden Bantam. Popular yellow corn for 
late markets. Postpaid. Pkt. 10c; £ lb. 20c; lb. 30c. 
Not prepaid, lb. 25c; 10 lbs. @ 17c. 
♦OREGON EVERGREEN—While this is not a 
first early corn, this strain is considerably earlier 
than Stowell’s Evergreen, which in general char¬ 
acter it resembles. Postpaid. Pkt. 10c; £ lb. 20c; 
lb. 30c. Not prepaid, lb. 25c; 10 lbs. @ 17c; 
100 lbs. @ 15c.

YELLOW SWEET CORN COLLECTION 
We offer one packet each of Golden Early Mar¬ 
ket, Improved Golden Bantam and Golden Giant 
for 20c; £ lb. each for 50c; 1 lb. each for 75c, 
postpaid. This makes a splendid succession if 
planted at the same time. 
FIELD CORN 
The growing of field corn has now reached a 
stage where it is past being an experiment, and 
with acclimated seed there is no difficulty to ob¬ 
tain success. We do not and will not handle any 
but local grown seed of Dent Corn and our custo¬ 
mers may feel sure of getting acclimated seed. 
♦ALBANY DENT (formerly called Albany Hy¬ 
brid)—A cross between Minn. No. 13 and Pride of 
The North. It has the earliness of the No. 13, and 
the deep grain and small cob of the Pride of The 
North. It has been given careful selection and is, 
we believe, one of the finest sorts for grain or 
ensilage. It is very early and produces large, heavy 
ears on tall stalks. Postpaid. Pkt. 10c; lb. 25c. 
Not prepaid, lb. 20c; 10 lbs. @ 10c; 100 lbs. @ $6.50. 
♦IDaHO HYBRID (Silage Type)—Same season 
as Minn. 13 and the first Hybrid Dent corn we 
have ever seen that is suitable for growing condi¬ 
tions West of the Cascades. The extensive root 
system keeps the plants erect throughout the 
season, producing longer than average ears and a 
heavy yield of grain or silage material. Postpaid.

100 lbs. @ $10.00.
