2 @ ALPINE BANTAM 
... Fancy Edible Period 57 to 60 Days 
There must be a beginning to everything, and this 
hybrid is the very first of the roasting ears. We searched 
the world over for earliness for this hybrid. The hardi- 
ness of one parent from the Alps and the sweetness and 
flavor of the other parent from the Pacific Northwest 
makes this a first early winner. Plant it early too, it 
stands cold weather. 
(A) ALPHAGOLD BANTAM 
... Fancy Edible Period 60 to 65 Days 
If you want to lead your neighborhood with the best 
quality early sweet corn, plant Alphagold Bantam. The 
rapid growth of this extra early yellow hybrid will 
amaze you. Yields well, ears are about 7 inches long, 
and tips are well filled. Makes a clean crop, more re- 
sistant to smut and ear worms than most early types. 
> (B) HYBRID GOLDEN HUMMER 
... Fancy Edible Period 65 to 70 Days 
Be among the first to have yellow sweet corn, by plant- 
ing Hybrid Golden Hummer. It has large, attractive 
ears about 8 inches long, and with 12 even rows of 
tender, sweet kernels. It has high yield and uniform 
plant growth. Very similar to Tendergold in growing 
and eating characteristics—but much earlier! Try some. 
_> (C) TENDERGOLD 
... Fancy Edible Period 74 to 81 Days 
There are only three words to actually describe this 
corn—sweet, tender, succulent. It is an early corn— 
tipens about four days ahead of golden bantam—and 
yields about twice as much. It has attractive ears about 
eight inches long, with deep, sweet kernels. Stays sweet 
and tender two to three days longer than most kinds. 
(D) GOLDEN CROSS BANTAM 
... Fancy Edible Period 80 to 85 Days 
One of the first sweet corn hybrids developed, this 
hybrid is still a favorite with many gardeners. The ears 
are generally about 8 inches long, with 12 rows of 
sweet, good tasting kernels. 
> (E) TENDERMOST 
... Fancy Edible Period 81 to g1 Days 
Of all of the hybrids we have developed, this is the 
most tender. You'll love its giant-size kernels with their 
sugary-sweet corn goodness, and delightfully tender 
bull. Ears average about nine inches in length, with 14 
to 16 rows of amazingly regular kernels. This corn 
stays sweet and tender on the stalk for nearly two 
weeks at a time. Has good resistance to smut. It’s easy 
growing, high-yielding—and the best yet for quality 
eating, canning and freezing.
