HYBRID SWEET CORN 
Hybrid yellow sweet corn is one of the special crops for which Robson Seed Farms has a national reputation. 
Our breeding plots and testing fields are, we believe, the most extensive in the East. Thousands of experimental 
hybrids are discarded in the developing of a single hybrid. 
All of our hybrids are bred for the Northeast under Northeastern conditions, compared first in our fields with 
the other commercial hybrids on the market and if they prove superior are further tested at State Experiment 
It is only after such testing and proven superiority that a new hybrid is named and offered to our 
Each year we make many hundreds of experimental crosses, looking toward new and better varieties but at the 
same time we are each year looking for opportunities to improve the hybrids that we already have on the markec. 
In this way we aim to hold a leading position among the sweet corn breeders and growers of the country. 
Our breeding and testing program is costly and must be reflected in the price of seed. Our customers appre- 
ciate high quality both in our seed and the crop grown from this seed and find that the best seed is the best buy at 
harvest time. 
SENECA DAWN - LARGEST EARED EARLY CORN 
*600 SENECA DAWN: 65 days. 224 kernels per oz. 
Seneca Dawn, our latest early hybrid, is outstanding 
in size of ear for such an early corn. It has already 
proven to be a money maker for the commercial gar- 
dener who competes on the local market with other 
early varieties. Home gardeners find it very accept- 
able as a first early corn. Seneca Dawn is apparently 
resistant to bacterial wilt and does well in areas to the 
South where wilt is prevalent. Stalks 4% to 5 ft., 
strong, upright. Ears well up from the ground, 61% 
inches long, 12 to 14 rows, medium yellow, fair 
quality kernels on large cob. Heavy husks gives good 
coverage to end ‘of ear. Pkt. 25c; % lb. 60c; lb.

can see by the picture. Here we see Seneca Dawn Sweet Corn

quality with Robson Sweet Corn.
