GOLDEN BANTAM. A favorite with all who 
have grown it. The most famous sweet corn in 
the world today. It is the richest and sweetest 
of all varieties of sweet corn. Golden Bantam 
is dwarf, the stalks are usually 5 to 6 feet high, 
and the foliage is short, allowing it to stand 
closer together in the small garden and thus pro- 
duce a large crop on a small area. We recom- 
mend planting Golden Bantam every 10 days 
during the planting season and you will be as- 
sured of a continuous supply of the best sweet 
corn. Pkt., 20c; 1b., 40c; 2 lbs., 75c; 
10 lbs. or over, 32c per Ib.

GOLDEN SUNSHINE. The value of this variety lies in the 
fact that it matures several days in advance of the well- 
known Golden Bantam. The ears are very compact, about 
the same size of Golden Bantam, but more refined in appear- 
ance, having from 10 to 12 rows of grain. It is a very rapid 
grower. ;

BANTAM EVERGREEN. (Yellow.) A yellow variety maturing 
about 10 days after the Golden Bantam and a week earlier 
than the Stowell’s Evergreen white. It has an ear 3 times 
the size cf Golden Bantam and runs 12, 14 and 16 rows to 
the ear. The stalk is about 6 feet tall and is perhaps 1 foot 
shorter than Stowell’s Evergreen and 2 feet taller than Golden 
Bantam. The Bantam Evergreen has the tender and sweet 
qualities of the Golden Bantam and combines the quality of 
the Golden Bantam with the productiveness of Stowell’s Ever- 
green. As a table variety it is unexcelled.
