(88 days.) No home garden should be without some of this golden corn. 
It is one of the tenderest and sweetest that we have ever eaten. The 
ears are bright golden yellow and resemble the White Country Gentle- 
man, having long slim kernels irregularly spaced on the cob. 
It is a late corn coming on after most other varieties, and it is a real 
treat to have such fine corn late in the season. The plant is husky and 
often produces two good ears. An excellent kind for the home garden, 
the deep kernels make exceptionally fine canned corn and the attractive 
ears are of such fine quality that they are sure to bring repeat orders 
at roadside stands.

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 is 
ready to eat after planting. 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, 
although they are taken from our trials which were planted about 
the middle of May.

TREAT YOUR SEED CORN! 
Many growers are getting better stands and 
therefore, better crops by treating their seed with 
SEMESAN Jr. Protects seed from rotting in the 
ground. The cost is so low that no one can afford 
not to take advantage of this crop insurance. 
Two ounces will treat a bushel of seed corn. 
2 oz. |5e, or 2 for 25e; 1 Ib: 75ce.

, White Varieties 
WHIPPLE’S EARLY. (White.) (79 days.) A grand early white 
corn. Market gardeners find that the 
size, high yield (there are often two good ears on a stalk) and earliness, 
make this a profitable kind to grow for markets where a white corn is 
wanted. Home gardeners find this an excellent kind for table use and 
canning. 
The ears have 16-20 rows of deep rather narrow kernels, of very fine 
quality. They are 8-9 inches long and large around, and look like well 
bred Evergreen yet they mature two or three weeks earlier. 
We are original introducers of this variety, and our seed grown here 
in the North is far superior to most of the seed offered. 
Pkt. 10c; 14 Lb. 20c; Lb. 35c; 2 Lbs. 60c; 6 Lbs. $1.55 transportation 
paid. Not paid: 12 Lbs. $2.15; 50 Lbs. $7.50. 
STOWELL’S EVERGREEN. Special Early Strain. (90 days.) Our 
Northern grown seed is much earlier and superior to western and south- 
ern grown stocks. It is of better quality and matures fully 10 days 
earlier than ordinary Stowell’s Evergreen. Ears 7 to 8 inches long with 
12 to 16 rows of long, rather narrow kernels. 
Pkt. 10c; 144 Lb. 20c; Lb. 35c; 2 Lbs. 60c; 6 Lbs. $1.55 transportation 
paid. Not paid: 12 Lbs. $2.15; 50 Lbs. $7.50. 
COUNTRY GENTLEMAN. (94 days.) Late, very prolific. The ker- 
nels are long and thin and placed irregularly on the cob. It is of high 
quality being very sweet and tender. 
Pkt. 10c; 44 Lb. 20c; Lb. 35c; 2 Lbs. 60c; 6 Lbs. $1.60 transportation 
paid. Not paid: 12 Lbs. $2.30; 50 Lbs. $8.00. 
“T have used your Whipple’s Yellow sweet corn seed for several years and 
have had excellent results with it.” JesseT. Brown, Fulton, N.Y. May 24, 1940. 
“You may be interested to know that last year Extra Early Bantam corn 
created a great deal of comment. No one has had any luck before with 
Bantam corn in this section. Our ears were small but delicious.” 
Mrs. Clifford B. Hayes, Lyma, South Carolina. Mar. 21, 1940. 
POP CORN 
Pop corn is raised the same as field corn. It should be allowed to get 
thoroughly ripe before cutting. It is very easily raised and often proves 
a profitable crop. 
“Tf your order for seeds including pop corn amounts to $20.00 or more 
we will pay transportation on pop corn in quantities listed ‘‘not paid”. 
DYNAMITE or South American Yellow. New Large Golden. 
This is the new large golden pop corn which is so 
much in demand. The kernels are big and when popped make large 
tender popcorn of rich golden color and the finest quality. The ears are 
long with 12 to 16 rows, making the yield of shelled corn high. The stalk 
is tall and strong. Not as early as some varieties, but our Northern 
grown strain can be depended on to mature in this climate if planted 
in May. 
Pkt. 10c; 44 Lb. 25c; Lb. 40c: 2 Lbs. 70c; 714 Lbs. $2.00 transportation 
paid. Not paid: 15 Lbs. $2.85; 20 Ibs. or more at 16c per lb. 
JAPANESE HULLESS or Tom Thumb. Very Early. This is the 
earliest variety. Owing to the unusually thin skin on the kernels, this 
corn is very tender when popped and of the finest quality, being almost 
free from any fiber which is so objectionable in the common varieties. 
The ears are short and thick. The kernels are small, pointed and 
nearly white. 
Pkt. 10c; 44 Lh. 25c; Lb. 40c; 2 Lbs. 70c; 7144 Lbs. $1.95 transportation 
paid. Not paid: 15 Lbs. $2.70; 20 Ibs. or more at 15c per lb.
