yes grown in the South and West, where most of the Sweet Corn seed is grown.

Open Pollinated Yellow 
109 GOLDEN BANTAM. (70 days.) 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 varie- 
ties. 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,

maturing season.- To accomplish this, Wonder Bantam has been intro- 
duced by the crossing of Early Wonder and Golden Bantam Sweet Corn.

in length with § rows of rich, golden colored kernels.
