SOUTH AMERICAN GIANT—SUNBURST STRAIN. The kernels 
are deep orange in color, extra large and smooth. When popped, they 
are larger than any other standard variety and are of a rich creamy 
yellow color. The flavor is truly delicious. The stalks grow 6 to 8 
feet tall and produce two and often three large ears which are 9 inches 
or more in length. Pkt., 10c; % pt., 20c; pt., 35c; qt., 65c; 2 qts.,

AUSTRALIAN HULLESS. Also known as Tom Thumb and Bum- 
ble Bee. A heavy yielder of little short ears, nearly as thick as long.

it becomes too dry, mix one tea-

ping condition. 










Hybrid Australian Hulless 
FOR BIGGER YIELDS AND GREATER 
POPPING VOLUME 
(Plant 5 to 6 Ibs. of seed per acre) 
HYBRID SOUTH AMERICAN GIANT 
Pops larger, more tender and better flavored kernels than the Stand- 
ard South American Giant. When popped, the kernels are creamy- 
white and are nearly hulless. 
South American Hybrid surpasses all other varieties of Pop Corn 
in yields. 50 to 60ebushels per acre are common, with some growers 
reporting up to 70 bushels. 
Only about 10 days later than our Australian Hulless, but can be 
planted earlier as it is cold resistant. The long roots go deep. into 
the soil and will withstand drought and high winds better than any 
other variety. Methods of production of Hybrid seed are much more 
costly than standard varieties. This accounts for the higher price, 
but the additional costs are more than made up in yield, volume of 
pop and quality of corn. Seed saved from Hybrid Pop Corn is for 
popping purposes and is not suitable for planting, as it will not come 
true. Pkt., 15e; % pt., 47c; pt., 90c; qt., $1.70; 2 qts, $3.30, postpaid.

HYBRID AUSTRALIAN HULLESS 
Here is the last word in pop corn, far surpassing standard 
Australian Hulless in yield and popping expansion. Records show 
16% greater yield per acre. Its most amazing feature is apparent 
when the corn is popped, for it expands to a surprising volume (meas- 
uring 29% more than ordinary Australian Hulless). This large pop- 
ping volume creates a ready demand at higher prices by the commer- 
cial users. We do not hesitate to recommend it as the finest hulless 
pop corn obtainable from the standpoint of quality, flavor and ten- 
derness, Pkt., 15c; %4 pt., 32c; pt., 60c; qt., $1.10; 2 qts., $2.10, post-
