North Star Sweet Corn 
Extra Early—Highest Quality 
Ready to eat only two or three days later than the small extra early kinds, this hybrid 
produces ears that compare in size, shape and fine quality with the superior midseason 
varieties. Think of having fine big ears of corn, of excellent flavor when your neighbor has 
only small ears of mediocre quality. 
The ears are mostly 12 rowed and fully seven inches long and the kernels are an attractive 
light butter yellow, always deliciously sweet and tender. The plants are strong and vigorous 
and bear an enormous number of these fine ears, making North Star one of the best yielders 
we have ever seen.

Northern Cross—Tremendous Yielder—Large Ears 
This is a medium early hybrid of such extraordinary vigor that it seems to grow by 
leaps and bounds. It consistently outyields all other varieties of the same season and there 
are usually two and often three good ears to a plant. 
Northern Cross is a sweet corn of the highest quality. The ears are large, nearly eight 
inches long with twelve to fourteen rows of bright yellow kernels which are delicate, succu- 
lent and tender. We are proud of this hybrid and recommend it highly. (Not resistant to wilt.)

From our customers: : 
“Your North Star sweet corn was 
the most wonderful extra early sweet 
corn weve grown yet. I was amazed 
at the immense yield of large early 
corn of the finest quality.” 
Bevier D. Jansen, Walden, N.Y.

“T planted some of your Northern 
Cross sweet corn. It is the finest corn 
and best yielder that I have ever 
planted. Also your Double Yield 
cucumber is the best.”

New Long 
Tendergreen 
A Fine New Round Green Bean 
Our 1943 Introduction 
We have long considered Tendergreen the 
very finest variety of round-podded green 
bush beans, so when we say that New Long 
‘Tendergreen is even better, we can give it no 
higher praise. This new bean has all the fine 
qualities of Tendergreen—high flavor, ten- 
derness and thick meat, but the pods are fully 
an inch longer and grow even straighter. Like 
Tendergreen, even when they grow large the 
pods remain as tender and succulent as very 
young beans. 
They are ready to use at the same time as 
Tendergreen and if kept picked will bear over 
a long period. The plants are robust and 
healthy and produce a great abundance of 
these long straight pods. 
We regret that our supply of seed for this 
year is so limited that we can offer only small 
quantities for trial. Next year we hope to 
have a good supply of seed.
