THE BEST SWEET CORN 
Northern Grown Seed Corn Means Eartier Crops 
Sweet Corn can be raised on any good, ordinary soil that is thoroughly worked. Plant five 
kernels to the hill, which should be about 3 feet apart each way, or plant in rows, one seed 
every 3 inches, covering seed with about 1 inch of soil firmly pressed down. Thin out to three 
=e 
plants to a-hill. For succession, plant every two weeks up to July 15th. A pkg. will sow a row 
50 ft. long or 30 hills; 1 Ib. 1000 ft. of row or 400 hills. 
Hybrid Sweet Corn 
Hybrid Corns are crosses between an inbred strain and a standard variety or a crossing of two 
inbreds. To produce Hybrid Corn this must be done each year. Do not save seed from Hybrids, 
It will not come true the next season. Hybrid Corns are of special value to commercial growers 
because the ears from one planting mature at the same time. If you want Corn over a long 
period plant three or four kinds. 
Alphagold Bantam. Ready to eat in just 
59 days. If you want to lead your neighbor- 
hood with the earliest Sweet Corn, you will 
really have something to brag about in 
Alphagold Bantam. It is safe to plant a full 
week ahead of other Sweet Corn and the 
rapid growth of this first early yellow hybrid 
will amaze you. Yields well, the ears are 
about 7 inches long, with 10 to 12 rows of 
tender, sweet kernels.

* Golden Cross Bantam. New York 
State Grown Certified Seed. The highest qual- 
ity Hybrid Sweet Corn that we have seen. The 
ears are about 8 inches long, with 14 rows of 
cream colored kernels. Golden Cross is ready 
for use in about 84 days. Stalks are 4 to 5 
feet high, thrifty growers, and bear two ears 
to a plant. We believe it is one of the leading 
yellow Sweet Corns, and recommend it to all 
progressive gardeners.

midseason yellow Corn (87 days) that is re- 
sistant to drought and wilt. The ears are 8 
inches long with 12 to 14 rows of light yel- 
low kernels. Very heavy yielding and does 
particularly well on light soils as it doesn’t 
sucker and is drought-resistant.

with the commercial growers on account of 
its earliness and complete resistance to 
Stewart’s disease.

Corn is ready to harvest when the silk 
starts to turn dark brown and the kernels, 
when dented with the finger nail, show a 
milky juice. 
Sweet Corn to be at its best should be 
cooked within thirty minutes of being picked. 
Varieties of Sweet Corn will mix, providing 
they are in silk and tassel at the same time.

Standard Varieties of Sweet Corn 
Often preferred by home gardeners 
because the ears mature over a much 
longer time than the Hybrid Corns do 
and extend the eating season. 
xBantam Evergreen. (80 days.) To 
gardeners who want a longer-eared Corn 
than Golden Bantam, we recommend 
this variety. The ears are 8 to 10 inches 
long and filled with creamy yellow, ten- 
der, sweet and juicy kernels of very fine 
quality. Pkg. 10c; 5 Ib. 25c;

Hart & Vick’s old-fashioned strain with 
6-inch ears, 8 rows of deep kernels. The 
original strain that made Golden Ban- 
tam famous, is, we believe, away ahead 
of any other; has the wonderful rich- 
ness, sweetness, and tenderness that 
make this variety so popular.
