Every ear is large, attractive and delicious 
124 Lincoln 
Drought Tolerant—Large Ears (81 days) 
Lincoln, developed by the Connecticut Experi- 
ment Station, has won an important place in 
many sections because of its tall sturdy plants 
and its ability to stand drought and adverse 
conditions. The plants grow 7 to 8 feet tall with 
very stiff stalks and practically no suckers. It is 
resistant to wilt. 
The ears are ready 3 to 4 days earlier than 
Golden Cross and are very large, measuring 7-8 
inches. They are cylindrical, very uniform and 
have 12 to 16 rows of deep narrow kernels. See 
prices on next page.

107 Carmelcross, Improved 
The Largest and Finest Second Early Corn 
(72 days) 
For market, our Carmelcross Improved is now 
tops in its class. Ten days ahead of the main 
crop market varieties, it equals them in size of 
ear, high quality and big yields. It is the ideal 
corn to follow North Star and many growers 
use it all through the season. 
The husky vigorous plants are resistant to 
wilt and productive under nearly all conditions. 
The big well-filled ears have 12 to 16 rows of 
bright yellow kernels protected by a tight 
heavy husk, and the quality is excellent. 
Our Improved Strain has bigger, more uni- 
form ears and is by far the best type. If you 
haven’t tried’ Carmelcross, grow some this 
year. See prices on next page. 
132 Northern Cross 
An Early, Heavy-Yielding Hybrid (73 days) . 
This vigorous Harris’ Hybrid has been a favor- 
ite for many years. It makes a rapid, husky 
growth and there are usually two good ears on 
each plant. Northern Cross ripens just after the 
very early kinds, and the ears are good sized 
(7-8 in.), very uniform, with 12-14 rows of 
bright yellow kernels. The quality is excellent. 
Caution: Northern Cross is not resistant to 
Stewart’s Disease (wilt). See prices on next 
page. 
LINCOLN 
Good-looking, 
well filled ears 
—> 
One of the first hybrid sweet corns to be developed, Golden Cross 
Bantam is still by far the best main crop type for both market and 
canning. Our strain has been so much improved in recent years that 
the seed we now offer is as close to perfection as anything we have 
ever seen. Widespread tests and the reports of growers in all sections 
prove that this stock is better than all others in yield, uniformity, 
quality and size of ear. 
The tall vigorous plants produce heavy crops ripening nearly all 
at one time. The ears are large (about 8 in.) and remarkably uniform 
in size and type. They have 12 to 14 rows of bright golden yellow 
kernels of supreme quality. Our stock of Golden Cross holds its 
tenderness and flavor better than other kinds and the handsome 
appearance of the ears has never been surpassed. 
This variety is resistant to wilt and widely adapted all over the 
country. For best results sow not more than six pounds per acre. See 
prices on next page. 
123 loana 
Large Eared—Midseason—Wilt Resistant (86 days) 
This outstanding hybrid has been welcomed by sweet corn growers 
as an exceptionally dependable large eared variety for main crop. 
The ears are large, slightly tapering, mostly 8 to 9 inches long with 
12 to 14 rows (a few 16) of creamy yellow, medium deep kernels, 
which fill the ear well at the tip. 
These large attractive ears are of good quality, being sweet and 
tender. The plants are tall and strong, with few suckers, and they 
seem to stand drought remarkably well. In some sections where 
large creps of sweet corn are grown for market, some of our customers 
prefer it even to Golden Cross Bantam. See prices on next page.
