Harris’ Northern Grown 
Sweet Corn 
For many years we have made a specialty of 
growing both open pollinated and hybrid sweet 
corn seed of the finest quality here in the North 
on our own and nearby farms, and are large pro- 
ducers of the best market varieties. 
Combining scientific breeding and careful 
selection with the greatest care in growing, drying 
and cleaning, we produce seed corn of the highest 
standard of vitality and purity. 
Hybrid Sweet Corn 
The large number of Hybrids offered, make 
it difficult for the grower to select the best. We 
have chosen the best of these hybrids and offer 
to our customers six varieties which cover the 
season from extra early to late or main crop. In 
order of maturity they are—‘‘Seneca 60,”’ North 
Star (new), Northern Cross, Early Bancross 39, 
Golden Cross Bantam and Ioana. These are 
grown from proven pure line parents with great 
care taken in detasseling the seed parent which 
is of major importance in growing hybrid corn 
seed. 
Hybrid corn cannot be saved for seed the next 
year as it breaks down. 
North Star 
New Extra Early Hybrid (67 days) 
As early as Extra Early Bantam and only a 
few days later than ‘‘Seneca 60” but having the 
same large ears that you ordinarily find in many 
midseason varieties. It sounds almost too good 
to be true but we have obtained just this by Seneca “60” North Star 
crossing one of our inbreds of Extra Early Bantam EECA SOTA pMOLION YOK GUT CON y, SWAZL "COTE 
with Connecticut inbred C 13. Being a true hybrid it is very productive and even ripening. 
The ears are deep creamy gold, mostly 12 rowed, fully 7 inches long and have a fine large husk 
which covers the tip well and makes them very attractive looking. _ 
The ears will sell at a premium on sight, and the fine quality will bring your customers back. 
We had people tell us this summer that North Star was of exceptionally fine flavor for early corn. 
The stalks are strong, five feet or more high. Be sure to try some North Star this year. 
NOTE: Our seed supply of this variety is limited this year, so we can not sell more than 25 
Ibs. to a customer. First come first served. Don’t miss this opportunity See prices on page 13. 
Seneca ‘‘60’’—The Earliest Hybrid (65 days) 
This new corn is the earliest Hybrid in production and one of the earliest varieties. In our 
trials it has been ready in 65 days and we have seen it mature under ideal conditions in sixty days. 
The stalks are 4 to 41% feet tall, with eight rowed, golden yellow ears about 6 inches long, and 
ripening a large part of the crop over a short period of time. We recommend this extra early hybrid 
highly. Not resistant to Stewart’s Disease. See prices on page 13. 
When Different Varieties Mature 
We give after the names of the different varieties listed in this catalogue the approximate 

number of days in which the corn matured in our trials that were planted about the middle 
of May. As the time required varies greatly according to the weather, time of planting, 
and fertility of the soil the figures should be regarded as relative rather than actual.
