SEED GROWERS 
HYBRID SWEET CORN — Continued 
ARISTOGOLD BANTAM NO. 1 83 Days 
Another one of our winners from the All America Seed Trials and one 
which is built to stand abuse from the weather. This handsome, fast grow- 
ing, rich yellow corn yields extra long 12 to 14 rowed ears with deeper 
kernels than any other Bantam type. Stalks are 8 to 9 feet tall with dark 
green leaves and husks. L he ears are uniform and symmetrical, making 
exceptional yields even under adverse conditions of drouth or heat because 
of the deep root system. It is a quality corn, more resistant to ear worm 
and smut damage and will stand earlier planting in cold, wet soil than other 
types. 
SILVER CROSS BANTAM NO. 1 82 Days 
Breeders have said it couldn't be done, but this snowy white counterpart 
of Golden Cross Bantam brings all the quality, flavor and tenderness of 
the fancy yellow sweet corns into the white class for the first time. The 
heavy 12 to 14 rowed ears are somewhat larger than Golden Cross type 
and the 7 to 8 foot stalks exceptionally clean and free from suckers. Users 
continually praise the flavor of the crisp, glistening white kernels and 
repeated tenderometer tests on the canned product show tenderness equal 
to the fanciest of the yellows. SI LVER CROSS BANTAM will replace 
most of the Evergreens and Country Gentleman strains now in use and 
make worthy competition for the top flight yellow hybrids. 
IOANA 83 Days 
A fine uniform All America winner developed by Dr. E. S. Elaber of the 
Iowa Experiment Station at Ames. Growers everywhere like the clean, 
suckerless 7 foot plants. Ears are uniformly 12 rowed and quality and 
flavor of the best. 
ARISTOGOLD BANTAM EVERGREEN 87 Days 
This is the biggest yellow sweet corn which can be classed in the high 
quality group. Ears are 16 to 18 rowed, 9 to 10 inches long with clean 
stalks 8 to 9 feet tall. It has yielded as much as ten tons of snapped ears 
per acre under good conditions and is resistant to ear worm, smut and hot 
weather the same as Aristogold Bantam No. 1. But don’t let the size mis¬ 
lead you as this corn is strictly first class in flavor and tenderness, good 
enough that people from the fancy early yellow north country often take 
ears back with them to give their friends. 
SILVER CROSS EVERGREEN 90 Days 
A hybrid representing some distinct improvements over the open pol¬ 
linated type. It is vastly more uniform, with greater yield, higher sugar 
content and superior tenderness. The stalk and leaf growth are similar to 
Evergreen, although earlier in maturity. 
SILVER CROSS COUNTRY GENTLEMAN 90 Days 
The finest of the Country Gentleman hybrids for resistance to hot, dry 
weather and ear worm damage 'The ears are deep kerneled, uniform and 
of good length. Because of its uniformity and reliable production this is a 
favorite wherever a shoepeg type is preferred. 
IOGENT NO. 27 92 Days 
This big eared, uniform Country Gentleman hybrid is very snowy white 
when canned. Because of its color, quality and yield it is an outstanding 
favorite with canners everywhere. It bears long ears with a small cob.
