115 GOLDEN CROSS BANTAM. Wilt _Resistant—High 
Yielding — Uniform. 
(84 days.) Golden Cross Bantam was one of the first hybrids intro- 
duced and it is now the standard of excellence in sweet corn. Its great 
uniformity and superlative quality have never been surpassed. 
The ears are extremely attractive, about 8 inches long, nearly cylin- 
drical in shape with 12 rows of golden yellow kernels which fill the ear 
beautifully. The kernels have unusual depth and are tender and of 
perfectly delicious flavor. Matures 4 to 7 days later than Golden Ban- 
tam, a large part of the crop ripening over a short period of time, but 
the ears hold their fine quality and tenderness longer than any kind we 
know. It is ideally suited for home canning or freezing and is by far the 
most widely grown variety for commercial processing. It is entirely 
resistant to Stewart’s disease (wilt). 
Our stock is absolutely without equal for even growth, maturity and 
heavy yield of fine large ears. We wish everyone could see it compared 
with other strains.

123 IOANA, Excellent Midseason Hybrid. (86 days.) We have 
been greatly impressed by Ioana, because it fills the 
bill for a main crop corn of fine quality to follow Golden Cross Bantam. 
The plant is strong and robust, producing large ears (8 inches long) 
with 12-14 rows of sweet, tender, bright yellow kernels. It is one of the 
heaviest yielding varieties we know and has proved highly resistant 
to wilt (Stewart’s disease). In season it closely follows Golden Cross 
Bantam, and is preferred by some growers because of its sturdy vigor- 
ous growth even under adverse conditions. We recommend this new 
hybrid corn highly.

Onen-Pollinated or Standard Varieties of Sweet Com 
The following varieties of sweet corn are called “‘open-pollinated”’ because they do not require special control of pollination as the hybrids do. They 
are often preferred for the home garden because the ears ripen over a longer period from one planting. 
120 HARRIS’ EXTRA EARLY BANTAM. Eerie en 
elie 
low Sweet Corn. (68 days.) This fine corn which we introduced in 1926 
is still considered one of the finest early sweet corns ever grown. It is 
8 rowed and identical to Golden Bantam for size, shape and high 
quality but is actually ten days to two weeks earlier, being among the 
earliest varieties of sweet corn. It is also one of the most prolific varie- 
ties. More often than not, each stalk will have two well developed ears. 
It is the only very early corn of the true Bantam type, and we con- 
sider this one of the finest high quality varieties for the home garden. 

141 WHIPPLE’S YELLOW. (77 days.) We introduced this grand 
corn over twenty years ago and it 
is still one of the leading early, large eared kinds. 
The ears are twice as large as Golden Bantam and are ready nearly 
a week earlier than Golden Cross Bantam, They are 8 to 9 inches long 
and have 14 to 18 rows of deep yellow kernels of very fine quality. The 
stalks grow quite tall and often produce two large ears of nearly the 
same size. é 
There are many strains of Whipple’s Yellow now offered but none 
are equal to our original strain which we have grown here on our own 
farms for many years.

110 GOLDEN BANTAM. True 8 rowed Stock. (80 Days.) For many years the stand- 
ard for high quality in sweet corn, and still very popular with 
many home gardeners. The ears are 6 to 7 inches long and are uniformly 8-rowed. The kernels 
are large, of a rich “June butter’ yellow and are deliciously succulent and tender. It matures in 
midseason, just after the early kinds and a week ahead of Golden Cross Bantam. If you like 
the real old-fashioned 8-rowed Golden Bantam, with all its famous sweetness and fine flavor, 
plant this fine uniform stock.

105 BUTTERCUP. Larger Ears than Golden Bantam. (80 days.) This old favorite which we 
introduced many years ago, still has a large following because of its wonderful quality and its 
fine long slender ears. It comes on at the same time as Golden Bantam and resembles that 
variety but has considerably larger ears. Fine for home gardens and roadside stands. 
Pkt. 10c; 4% Lb. 30c; 1 Lb. 50c. 
112 GOLDEN COUNTRY GENTLEMAN. For Fine Quality. (88 days.) No home garden 
should be without some of this delicious corn. It is one of the tenderest and sweetest that we have 
ever eaten. The ears are bright golden yellow and have long slim kernels irregularly spaced on 
the cob. 
It is a late corn coming on after most other varieties, and it is a real treat to have such fine 
corn late in the season. The plant is husky and often produces two good ears. An excellent kind 
for the home garden, as the deep kernels make exceptionally fine canned corn. 
Pkt. 10c; 4 Lb. 25c; 1 Lb. 45c; 2 Lbs. 80c.

“The corn I got from you last year, Northern Cross, North Star and Ioana, was the best eating 
corn I have tasted in over 20 years.” 
Mrs. A. E. Gilbert, Box 500, Everett, Wash., Mar. 20, 1945 
POP CORN 
A packet will sow about 100 feet of row. 6 to 8 lbs. per acre. 
Pop corn is raised the same as field corn. It should be planted fairly early and should be allowed 
to get thoroughly ripe before cutting. [tis very easily raised and often proves a profitable crop. 
146 DYNAMITE. oF South American Yellow. Large Golden Type. This is the large 
golden pop corn which is so much in demand. The kernels are big and 
when popped make large tender pop corn of rich golden color and very good quality. The ears 
are long with 12 to 16 rows, making the yield of shelled corn high. The stalk is tall and strong. 
Not as early as some varieties, but our Northern grown strain can be depended on to mature in 
this climate, if planted in May, as it ripens in about 110 days.
