Harris’ Northern Grown Sweet Corn 
For years we have specialized in growing sweet corn here on our own 
farms and neighboring farms in Western New York. Our Northern Grown 
strains are far superior in earliness and quality to strains raised where 
the seasons are longer. We have large specially constructed drying houses 
for curing and drying our seed corn, enabling us to offer seed of strong 
vitality and the highest quality in every way. 
Note: Corn should never be planted in a single row. It is much better 
to plant in a block with three or four rows side by side. This is because 
in a single row the ears are often not properly pollinated and do not 
produce a full set of kernels. 
At the prices here quoted, we pay transportation charges on 
sweet corn to places in the United States.

 Hybrdd Sueet Corn 
Hybrid sweet corn varieties are more vigorous and uniform than other 
kinds and produce greater yields. They are ideal for growers who market 
their corn, because of their uniformity and big yields and because they 
tend to come on all at one time. For the home garden, some people prefer 
the open pollinated varieties which ripen over a longer period. However, a 
continuous supply of fine corn may be obtained by using several different 
hybrids planted at one time. See also our Sweet Corn Collection. 
Seed should not be saved from plantings of hybrid sweet corn as it 
will not come true the next year.

Harris’ Extra Early Bantam, Northern Cross, Buttercup 
and Golden Cross Bantam. 

125 MARCROSS C6. 13. Wilt Resistant Early Hybrid. (68 days.) One of the most widely grown early 
varieties in the East and famous for its large uniform ears. It ripens a day or two later than North Star 
and produces well even under adverse conditions. The ears are remarkable for their uniform cylindrical 
shape and even size. They are about 7 inches in length and nearly all 12 rowed with light golden yellow 
kernels of very good quality. The stalks are short but sturdy and vigorous. 
It is completely resistant to wilt (Stewart’s disease) and is therefore especially valuable as a large 
eared, early variety in sections where wilt is prevalent. We recommend it highly.

132 NORTHERN CROSS. Tremendous Yielder of Large Fine Quality Ears. (73 days.) 
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. It ripens about a week later than North Star 
and if planted together these two varieties will give a continuous supply of the finest early corn. 
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, succulent and tender. We are 
proud of this hybrid and recommend it highly. (Not resistant to wilt.) 
Pkt. 15c; 4% Lb. 40c; 1 Lb. 70c; 2 Lbs. $1.30; 6 Lbs. $3.00; 12 Lbs. $5.75. 
107 CARMELCROSS. !mproved. (New.) (72 days.) A medium early hybrid of the finest 
quality. It produces larger ears than either Marcross or Northern Cross, 
coming on about in season with the latter, and is also entirely resistant to wilt. 
The sturdy plants grow about 514 feet tall and the big well filled ears have 12 to 16 rows of deep, 
bright yellow kernels. They are very uniform and attractive in appearance and are delicious to eat, 
being sweet and tender with fine flavor. 
For both home and market gardeners, this second early hybrid has a real place. Our strain is the 
Improved Carmelcross having larger and longer ears than the original type and we recommend it highly. 
Pkt. 15c; 4% Lb. 40c; 1 Lb. 70c; 2 Lbs. $1.30; 6 Lbs. $2.95; 12 Lbs. $5.50. 
124 LINCOLN. (New.) Large Ears, Drought Resistant. (81 days.) A sturdy, vigorous hybrid de- 
veloped by the Connecticut Agricultural Experiment Station and already very popular especially with 
market growers. It comes on just ahead of Golden Cross Bantam and is valuable to fill the gap between 
that variety and the early kinds. The stalks are very tall, stiff and erect and withstand adverse con- 
ditions such as hot dry weather much better than most kinds. For this reason it is widely grown for 
main crop in many sections. 
The ears are straight, cylindrical, 7 to 8 inches long and are closely set with 12 to 16 rows of deep 
narrow kernels. The quality is very good and the ears are well protected by a good husk. Highly 
recommended for its dependable production of large uniform ears.
