Sweet Corn—Yellow Varieties 
HARRIS’ EXTRA EARLY BANTAM. The Most Prolific Very 
---Early Yellow Sweet 
Corn. (68 days.) This fine corn which we introduced in 1926 is considered by 
home gardeners and commercial growers to be one of the finest sweet corns ever 
grown. It is identical to Golden Bantam for size, shape and high quality but is 
actually ten days to two iveeks earlier, being among the earliest varieties of sweet 
corn. It is also one of the most prolific varieties. More often than no6each stalk 
will have two well developed ears. 
It is the only very early corn of the true Bantam type. We consider this one of 
the finest varieties for the home garden. This fine quality corn maturing as it 
does so early in the season is a real treat. 
Pkt. 10c; y Lb. 20c; Lb. 35c; 2 Lbs. 60c; 6 Lbs. $1.60 transportation paid. Not 
paid: 12 Lbs. $2.30; 50 Lbs. $8.00. 
CANADA GOLD. (New.) Long Ears. Early. (70 days.) This variety will produce 
fine large ears as early as many of the smaller kinds. The ears grow to 8 lo 9 
inches long with 8-12 rows of tender bright yellow kernels of excellent flavor. 
The plant is robust for an extra early kind, and very prolific, often bearing two 
good ears on each stalk. 
We obtained this corn originally from Canada and have grown and bred it here 
in the North on our own farm for a number of years. 
Pkt. 10c; Lb. 20c; Lb. 35c; 2 Lbs. 60c; 6 Lbs. $1.55 transportation paid. Not 
paid: 12 Lbs. $2.15; 50 Lbs. $7.50. 
GOLDEN EARLY MARKET (Gill’s.) Also called Golden Hummer, Extra 
Early Golden, Extra Early Yellow, Etc. (67 days.) A very fine extra early yellow 
corn and we recommend it to those who want an early yellow variety with large ears. 
The ears are large for early corn, being fully 7 inches long with twelve rows of 
broad butter yellow kernels. The quality is very good but not equal to Extra 
Early Bantam. It matures with us about the same time. 
There are many stocks of this corn being sold under a great variety of names. 
We obtained our stock seed direct from the originators and carefully grow and 
select it each year in order to maintain the purity and earliness.

GOLDEN GEM. We have discontinued offering this variety. Seneca “60” described 
on preceding page is much superior. 
—||PP|_E*S YELLOW Largest Early Yellow Variety. (77 days.) 
- - Since we introduced this grand corn in 1930 it 
has been one of the most popular kinds grown and it is still the leading early 
large open pollinated variety. 
The ears are twice as large as Golden Bantam and are ready nearly a week 
earlier than Golden Cross Bantam. They are 8 to 9 in. long and have 14 to 18 
rows of deep yellow kernels of very fine quality. All who try it for the first time 
are surprised that such a large ear can be so sweet and tender. The stalks grow 
quite tall and often produce two large ears of nearly the same size. 
Growers have found this to be one of the most profitable sweet corns to raise 
for market as it is nearly a week before any corn of equal size. 
There are many strains of Whipple’s Yellow now offered but none are equal to 
our original strain which we have grown here on our own farm for many years.

STANLEY’S CROW REPELLENT 
“J am sending the enclosed snapshot thinking you might perhaps like to know of the 
behavior of your Northern Cross sweet corn in the “Corn Country .” We were amazed to 
find some stalks with four ears set and many with three. The quality is all Harris’ 
recommendations are. 
Some of this corn was 9 feet and better. I planted it in rows 3' apart and thinned it 
lo h” to 6" and still it produced 3-'f ears, very few with only two.” 
L. E. Bruce, Des Moines, Iowa. July 21, 1939. 
Careful, constant and thorough detasseling is necessary to produce good hybrid corn. 
This is a field of our Early Bancross 39. 
BUTTERCUP. Sweeter, Larger Ears than Golden Bantam. 
-1 (80 days.) This old favorite is one of the sweetest kinds 
of corn which we know and is altogether a fine variety. The kernels are 
large, of a rich “June butter” yellow and are deliciously succulent and 
tender. 
Buttercup is a medium early variety, maturing the same time as Golden 
Bantam which it resembles but the ears are much larger than that variety, 
being fully eight to ten inches long with 8 to 10 straight rows of broad 
kernels on a fine slender cob. 
This corn has long been for many years a favorite with home gardeners, 
who appreciate high quality in sweet corn. We are sure you will like it.

GOLDEN BANTAM. True 8 rowed Stock. (80 days.) The standard for 
high quality in sweet corn. The ears are 6 to 7 inches long with 8 rows of 
deep yellow kernels which are deliciously sweet and tender. Matures 
medium early. This is the most uniform 8 rowed stock of Golden Bantam 
ever grown.

BANTAM EVERGREEN. (86 days.) Our Northern grown seed is of 
highest quality and superior to much of the seed of this variety. This 
variety is a cross between Golden Bantam and Stowell’s Evergreen. The 
ears are 7 to 8 in. long with 12 to 14 rows of large yellow kernels, of fine 
quality. Bantam Evergreen is popular as a high quality corn to follow 
the earlier varieties and prolong the season.
