143. BLENDED HYBRID SWEET CORN. Hybrid 
Sweet Corn is undoubtedly the finest type of sweet corn. It is 
resistant to Stewart’s Disease and for yield and quality 
cannot be excelled. It has one objection in the home garden 
in that it matures all at one time. To overcome this we have 
taken and mixed equal proportions of three hybrids, one of 
70 days, one of 75 days and one of 90 days. By planting 
this mixture you will have the finest quality sweet corn 
throughout the sweet corn season. Pkt., 10c; Y2 Ib., 35c; Ib., 
60c; 2 lbs., $1.10; 5 lbs., $2.40, postpaid. 
139. COUNTRY GENTLEMAN. (93 days.) Often 
called ‘‘Shoepeg’’ corn because of the long narrow .pointed 
kernels, with their crowded and irregular arrangement on the 
cob. It is a distinct late variety, with two to five big ears 
on a large stalk. A favorite main crop sweet corn, packed from 
tip to butt with long pearly-white kernels set closely on a re- 
markably small cob. Sweeter and finer flavored than any other 
white corn and one of the best of the late varieties for table 
use. Pkt., 10c; 1% Ib., 25c; Ib., 45c; 2 Ibs., 80c; 5 lbs., $1.80, 
postpaid. 
138. HOWLING MOB. (85 days.) This white variety 
is.so valuable that it heads the list with many growers. When 
it was first offered the demand for it became so loud and 
clamorous that it was given its queer but appropriate name, It 
is one of the best flavored and most tender of all second-early

Golden Sunshine. 
148. GOLDEN SUNSHINE. (76 days.) 
The most important feature of Golden Sunshine 
Corn is its extreme earliness, It is actually 5 to 
7 days earlier than Golden Bantam. This valu- 
able variety was developed and introduced by 
Dr. Yeager while at the North Dakota Agricul- 
tural Experiment Station. It has a rich, golden 
color; the ears are about one inch longer than 
the ears of Golden Bantam and usually have 12 
rows instead of 8, while the quality practically 
equals that of the famous Bantam, Our stock 
of this corn is especially fine. Pkt., 10c; ¥% lb.,

146. GOLDEN or BANTAM. EVER- 
GREEN. (88 days.) Many attempts have been

tam Evergreen is the only really successful cross.

of ear with 14 to 18 rows. Kernels rich golden

tams. It is midseason about four days later than

height and very sturdy. Two ears are usually

length. It will yield about 50 per cent more than 
regular Bantam and

uniformity of stalk, ears, and time of ripening.

intervals, otherwise it will all ripen at one time.

ity is excellent. Pkt., 10c; % Ib., 35c; Ib., 60c;

Golden Bantam, 
%142. GOLDEN BANTAM. (80 days.) 
Most popular variety in the United States. Every- 
one likes Golden Bantam. Indeed, many people 
will not take any other when it is obtainable. 
The flavor is deliciously distinct, superior to that 
of any other open pollinated corn. The small 
8-rowed ears, usually less than six inches in 
length and several on a stalk, are perhaps higher 
in sugar content than any other corn but_ the 
hybrids. It is only 10 to 12 days later than 
Golden Gem, making a good succession when 
both varieties are planted at the same time. The 
kernels are tender, very wide and of good depth, 
while the cob is small and the flavor delicious.
