SCHELL’S EARLY SWEET CORN HYBRIDS 
“SPANCROSS 4.13” “MARCROSS 13.6” “CARMELCROSS 13.39” 
(Earliest) (Follows in 4 days) (4 days after Marcross 13.6) 
Here are our very best early Hybrids highly recommended by our Penn. State Agricultural Experiment 
Station and by Dr. W. R. Singleton of the Connecticut State Experiment Station, who specialize in this work. 
To you who grow Sweet Corn for Market (and this applies to the home-gardener as well), and want the 
very earliest Hybrid, plant our Spancross 4.13—it is the earliest and a fine one. Now to have a continuous suc- 
cession, one following the other, plant all the above three at the same time and as you dispose of one the next 
will be ready. These Hybrids mature so uniformly at one time that you can pick 95% of the crop at one picking. 
; For a continuous succession to follow the above three, we recommend these additional three, each of which 
will follow the other in 4 to 6 days: New Lincoln; Golden Cross Bantam; Ioana. This gives you a complete 
succession of fresh green Corn for 3 to 4 weeks. New and better Hybrids are being constantly developed. These 
we offer you and discontinue the varieties that they have replaced by their superior qualities. Days given mean from 
planting to eating stage and are approximate as this depends on when and where planted and weather influences. 
May 1 here is best, but gardeners often plant April 15 when spring weather opens early. This brings Corn for July 1.
