SWEET CORN 
During the past few years, vast improvements have been made by many state 
Experiment Stations and Seed Breeders in the methods of developing sweet corn 
seed. Through the crossing of various inbreds to produce hybrids, and the top 
crossing of inbreds on open-pollinated stocks, there have been developed many new 
and improved strains which are more uniform in maturity and yield much heavier 
ans standard sorts. These strains are highly resistant to bacterial wilt or Stewart’s 
isease.
