SWEET CORN 
Our Northern Grown Sweet Corn is far superior in quality and earliness to the same varieties raised from seed 
grown in the South and West, where most of the Sweet Corn seed is grown. 
One pound plants about 200 hills, 12 to 14 pounds to an acre. For succession, plant about every 2 weeks from 
April to the end of July; ready for the table 60 to 90 days from planting. BS 
Culture. Garden-Field varieties can be planted at the end of March or early in April. Sugar or Sweet Corns 
are more tender and should not be planted until warm weather is settled and the ground becomes warm. Cultivate 
‘requently and keep the ground free of weeds.

Open Pollinated Yellow 
109 GOLDEN BANTAM. Selected Northern 
Grown. The most popular variety of yellow Sweet 
Corn ever offered; also one of the earliest and hardiest. 
It can be safely planted earlier than other varieties. 
The plants rarely grow over 3% feet in height, and 
usually bear at least 2 ears, 5 or 6 inches long, on 
each stalk. Many people assert that Golden Bantam 
is the sweetest of all Corns; its plump, rich, cream- 
yellow kernels are tender, milky, and delicious. All our 
Golden Bantam seed is northern grown.

110 WONDER BANTAM, There has been an ever- 
increasing demand for an early Sweet Corn having 
all of the good qualities of Golden Bantam Sweet Corn, 
together with a larger ear and having about the same 
maturing season, To accomplish this, Wonder Bantam 
has been introduced by the crossing of Early Wonder 
and Golden Bantam Sweet Corn. The stalks grow 
from 5 to 6 feet in height and have ears 8 to 10 inches 
in length with 8 rows of rich, golden colored kernels.

Bantam type, maturing a week to 10 days earlier than

low, sweet grains. Especially desirable for its extreme 
earliness.

Open Pollinated White 
114 Aunt Mary's Sweet Corn 
The one great advantage that this variety has over 
other sweet corns, is that it remains in the eating stage 
for a much longer period than any corn we know. The 
ears are about 8 inches in length, very slender, and gen- 
erally 8-rowed with a heavy, long, close husk. The ker- 
nel is pure white, medium deep and medium broad, very 













sweet and tender. The stalk about 81% feet tall with 
fairly heavy, strong, even leaf growth. We most cer- 
tainly recommend this variety.

115 WHIPPLE’S EARLY WHITE. Of the narrow- 
grained Evergreen type, but ready for use much ear- 
lier. Ears 8 to 9 inches long, 16 to 18 rows of pearly

that it is by far the earliest of the narrow-grained 
Evergreen types and has a larger sugar content.
