GOLDEN CROSS BANTAM A cross of two inbred 
Bantams developed at the Purdue Experiment 
Station, it is midseason hybrid, typically 4 to 8 
days later than Golden Bantam. Stalks average 
6 to 7 ft. in height and are sturdy and straight 
conditions two ears are 
stalk. The ears 
about 8 inches long and have 10 to 14 rows of 
kernels. This hybrid is noted especially for resist- 
ance to Stewart’s disease and for the remarkable 
uniformity of its ears. Our own trials for the 
past 5 years have failed to bring to light a better 
hybrid than this. It has been greatly improved 
since it was introduced several years ago, and 
will no doubt hold the lead for years to come.

GOLDENWOOD A new, late yellow hybrid, to follow 
Golden Cross Bantam. It is also more drought and 
heat resistant, and produces a taller stalk and a 
better root system especially under high tempera- 
ture or low moisture conditions. The ears are slightly 
larger and longer than Golden Cross Bantam, have 
a tighter and longer husk, with a higher percentage 
of 14 and 16 rowed ears. The kernels resemble those 
of Golden Cross Bantam in size,quality and color, and 
the flavor is as good or better than Golden Cross.

the Whipples Yellow from which it was developed. It 
is practically immune to wilt and makes a fine corn for

COUNTRY GENTLEMAN HYBRID Although the ear 
resembles Country Gentleman in general, this hybrid 
will be found greatly superior to the old variety, 
especially as to uniformity of size and maturity. Has 
fine deep kernels, a heavier root system and yields 
heavily. se Ubwsooc. 12 ¥ealh, 259,00: 50) Ib.°$18.00. 
EVERGREEN HYBRID 3 x 33 An excellent hybrid of 
the Stowells Evergreen type, noted for its great 
uniformity, depth of kernel and increased yield. 
The ears are 14 to 18 rowed, about 8 inches long.

EVERGREEN HYBRID “A” A single cross of two 
Early Evergreen inbreds, which gives a large 
cylindrical 14-18 rowed ear in Early Evergreen 
season. The ears are about 7% inches long, and 
the stalks suckerless and 7 to 8 feet tall. This 
hybrid will outyield Early Evergreen under 
almost any conditions, and has the additional 
advantage of greatly increased uniformity of 
maturity and type, making it more advantageous 
to the grower satisfying a white corn market.

NARROW GRAIN HYBRID While its maturity and 
characteristics are almost identical with Narrow 
Grain Evergreen variety, this hybrid is less sus- 
ceptible to lodging and disease. Through the elim- 
ination of barren and nubbin bearing stalks, this. 
topcross easily produces 30% more corn than the 
Narrow Grain Evergreen. The ears are 18-26 rower, 
about 8-9 inches long, cylindrical and well filled at 
thertips. © Lhn65567 12 4s Th, ($5,004 50 1b $18.00.
