SWEET CORN, Golden Bantam 
CORN 
SWEET OR SUGAR 
Plant in well-fertilized land after it has become warm and dry in the 
spring. ‘Two ounces of seed will plant 50 feet. If in rows, space the 
seeds 3 inches apart, with 2 feet between rows, and thin the young 
plants to 10 inches apart. Or plant six seeds to a hill, thin to three 
plants, and space the hills 2 feet apart each way. 
Hybrid Strains 
Ioana. 87 days. A new variety developed in Iowa and especially 
resistant to drought and wilt. Largely planted in the South and 
Southeast or wherever worms are likely to infest the crop. The 8- 
inch ears have 12 or 14 rows of cream-yellow kernels; an especially 
heavy husk protects the ear from birds and worms. Popular with 
canners and market gardeners, and highly recommended. The 
limited supplies of this table Corn available last summer were 
eagerly sought. Growers had standing orders from stores for all 
that could be supplied; numerous persons praised it as the “best 
Sweet Corn they had ever eaten.” 
Country Gentleman. 90 days. A fine variety with ears 644 to 7 
inches long, bearing slender white kernels set irregularly instead of 
in rows. The seed we offer is produced from carefully bred selected 
strains. 
Stowell’s Evergreen. 93 days. Developed from crossing inbred 
evergreen lines. Widely grown by market gardeners and canners, 
particularly in the East. Ears 7 to 9 inches long and 16 or 18-rowed 
bear white kernels. 
Golden Gross Bantam. Wilt-resistant. An excellent producer of 8- 
inch yellow ears with 10 to 14 rows of kernels. Matures a few days 
later than Golden Bantam. 
Tendermost. 83 days. One of the most recently developed hybrid 
Sweet Corns. Giant-sized kernels and delightfully tender_hulls. 
Bars large, averaging about 9 inches, with 14 to 16 rows. Resists | 
both smut and worms.

8 rows of kernels of high flavor and sweetness. No flag leaves. 
Stalk 51% to 6 feet. An excellent and well-known strain. Lb. 25 cts.; 
5 Ibs. $1.15; 10 Ibs. $2.20. (We also have the 12-rowed Golden 
Bantam. Ears are, of course, larger and somewhat later in ma- 
turity). 
Golden Giant. 65 to 75 days. Rich golden yellow grains, deliciously 
sweet, make the large, full ears very attractive in appearance. The 
size, the bright color, the quality, together with its earliness, make 
this the most popular, large-eared, golden yellow Sweet Corn. 
Ears are 7 inches long, with 10 to 14 rows. A fine freezer. It follows 
Golden Bantam by ten days when planted at the same time.
