HYBRID SWEET CORN — Continued 
SOOBRED 82 
This outstanding corn is one of our winners from the All America Seed 
Trials. It ranks at the top of the list for tenderness, flavor and productive- 
ness. The stalks are 6 to 7%4 feet tall, bearing 9 to 10 inch 16 rowed yel- 
low ears. There is no corn of this maturity which can excel Soobred in 
quality and yield either for garden or canners’ use. 
TENDERGOLD 79 
A very fine corn of outstanding quality introduced by us. Four days earlier 
than Golden Bantam and generally twice as productive, the attractive 8 to 
9-inch, 12-rowed ears commanding a premium on the market. For tender- 
ness and succulence we have never seen its equal, and it holds this fine 
quality two to three days longer than other corns. Produces heavy crops 
in areas where Golden Bantam succumbs to bacterial wilt (Stewart’s Dis- 
ease). 
TENDERGOOD 87 
This is a close relative of Tendermost. Grows 4 to 12 inches taller with 
somewhat larger ear and yield. 2 to 5 days later in maturity than Tender- 
most, quality excellent. 
TENDERMOST 83 
We reserved this name for the best quality yellow sweet corn we have 
ever produced. From the first day the ears are ready to use until the 
leaves and husks begin to turn brown you will find it the tenderest corn 
you have ever had in the garden. It is as near hulless as sweet corn can 
be grown. The clean 9 inch golden 14 to 16 rowed ears are deliciously 
sweet and develop a brilliant gold color when cooked. They have plump, 
well filled tips with deep kernels. Plants and ears are about a foot higher 
and smut resistance is distinctly better than that of Golden Cross Bantam. 
Generally considered the best main season corn for canning and freezing. 
TOP FLIGHT BANTAM 82 
One of our outstanding winners from the All America Seed Trials this 
handsome 14-16 rowed yellow sweet corn generally produces two well de- 
veloped ears per stalk. Ears are about 9 inches long, well filled at the tips, 
crisp, tender, and succulent. Because of its strong tendency for good twin 
ears it often yields more dozens of marketable ears per acre than any 
other kind.

TRISTATE 86 Days 
Here is the hybrid which produces a higher percentage of perfect ears 
than any other kind we have had. Uniformly well filled at the tips, the 
16 rowed ears have remarkable resistance to ear worms and smut. Plants 
are very dark green, 8% to 9 feet tall and are clean and free from suckers. 
It is one of the best to use in dry seasons. 
SWEET CORN— OPEN POLLINATED 
The open-pollinated varieties are rapidly being replaced by new and 
superior Hybrid strains. After each variety you will find the name of a hy- 
brid variety to replace it. 
BANTAM EVERGREEN 85 Days 
A cross between Golden Bantam and Stowell’s Evergreen. Ears 8 inches 
[ong, 12- to 14-rowed; grain rather broad and deep of a rich golden yel- 
low color. Replace with Aristogold Bantam Evergreen or Golden Grain.
