The Best, Largest and Sweetest Extra Early White Sweet Corn is What 
our Customers Say. Ready for Market in This Locality in Early July. 
Since the Pilgrims settled in Massachusetts, Sweet Corn has been one 
of the most relished vegetables. Ever since, man has striven to produce 
a better quality. By crossing various types, improvements have been 
made, until one would think we had reached our zenith; especially 
after tasting delicious Golden Rod and Golden Bantam. These were far 
superior to any previously introduced, “but the color was against 
them.” Once again Nature proved a wonder, for we found in our field 
of Golden Bantam several ears containing a few white grains. They 
were selected, planted by themselves, and today we have a distinct type 
of White Bantam, known as our Silver Queen. Think of it, a White 
Bantam Corn, which contains all of the sweet lusciousness of the 
yellow sorts. In habit of growth it excels all other early varieties, 
being stocky and vigorous. Ears 6 to 7 inches long, frequently bearing 
four and five good ears on a single stalk. 2 oz. pkt. 10c; 14% lb. 25c; lb. 
40c; 2 lbs. 70c, postpaid. ; 
731 Golden Early Market (79 days) 
One of the Earliest Yellow Sweet Corns 
In our trials Golden Market produced large marketable ears 8 days 
earlier than Golden Bantam and 3 days earlier than Golden Sunshine, 
maturing marketable crop in 70 days from time of planting. Ears 8 
inches long, 10 to 12 rowed, fine grained, delicious flavor, stalks 4% 
feet high. A sure money maker for market gardeners where a matter 
of 5 to 10 days in marketing a crop makes a tremendous difference in 
the value per dozen or 100 ears, 2 oz. pkt. 10c; 1% Ib. 22c; lb. 38c; 2 Ibs.

Hybrid Varieties of Sweet Corn 
Hybrid Sweet Corn, the same as Hybrid Field Corn, is more resistant to disease, 
produces heavier root growth, stands up better, is more prolific and will outyield 
open-pollinated 50%. If you have had trouble in the growing of Sweet Corn on 
account of Stewart’s disease, then grow these Hybrid varieties and be assured 
of a big profitable crop.
