1 am enclosing an order for some Golden 
Cross Bantam Hybrid Sweet Corn, and a few 
other seeds. 
I planted some of this corn last year, ana 
had the surprise of my life—it was the finest 
sweet corn I have ever seen. Some ears were 
ten inches long, and had si.vteen rows on an ear. 
I’ll never plant any other sweet corn.
