Hybrid Sweet Corn 
Hybrid Sweet Corn varieties are superior to open- 
pollinated or standard sorts. They are more vigorous 
and uniform, more productive, produce corn of better 
quality and the ears from one planting mature at about 
the same time. Many gardeners who have room for 
only one planting of one variety, however, prefer the 
standard sorts, as good ears may be picked over a 
longer period of time. 
GOLDEN CROSS BANTAM. 80 days to table. Superb 
for home gardens. Chief reliance of canners, quick- 
freezers and market growers of quality sweet corn be- 
cause of attractive uniform ears of top quality, and 
because of dependable high yields. Plants large and 
thrifty, often produce 2 to 3 ears. Ears very uniform 
and attractive, about 8 inches long and filled com- 
pactly with 10 to 14 straight rows of tender, sweet, 
delicious kernels that are unexcelled for any purpose 
for which sweet corn is grown, 
IMPROVED GOLDEN CROSS. 80 days. A refinement 
over Golden Cross Bantam with more slender ears and 
narrower kernels. It is a more uniform strain, retain- 
ing all the good qualities of the parent stock. Seed 
limited for this season.

class, and compares in tenderness and flavor with the 
smaller varieties.
