ABBOTT & COBB’S EARLY. This variety is 
acclimated, being one of our originations and 
grown in Bucks County, Pennsylvania. It is 
one of the early types of genuine Sweet Corn, 
with medium-sized stalks, 60 per cent of which 
will produce two ears. The quality of the large, 
14-rowed ears is excellent and the grains are of 
medium size. A special drying process insures 
the best of germinating power to the seed.

Golden Cross Bantam 
Sweet Corn

early Corn. Ears are larger and a trifle [ater than 
the Abbott & Cobb’s Early. The seed we offer 
has been grown by a farmer in Bucks County and 
is absolutely true to type. Pkt. 15 cts.; 1b. 60 cts.; 
10 lbs. $4; 100 lbs. $25. 
GOLD RUSH. A first-early yellow hybrid. It ts 
rated as a 65-day Corn and on our trials this past 
season 90 per cent produced two excellent ears per 
stalk. Fodder 6 feet tall, ears 81% inches long with 
12 to 14 rows. With this variety you are sure to 
have a yield far above most other sorts. Pkt. 
15 cts.; lb. 60 cts.; 10 lbs. $5; 100 lbs. $45. 
GOLDEN CROSS BANTAM. A variety maturing 
about 10 days later than the standard Golden 
Bantam, with ears double the size and much 
deeper grains, more resistant to diseases. Pro- 
duces a strong stalk about 6 feet tall, able to stand 
adverse weather. This new hybrid is very popular 
with home gardeners. Pkt. 15 cts.; lb. 60 cts.; 10 
Ibs. $5; 100 Ibs. $45. 
STOWELL’S EVERGREEN. The leading main- 
crop Corn for home use, market, and canning.

It will produce large, uniform-sized ears of fine 
quality. The grains are of medium size and slen- 
der. Pkt. 15 cts.; lb. 60 cts.; 10 lbs. $4; 100 lbs. 
$25. 
GOLDEN BANTAM. The favorite Corn in the 
small garden because of its deliciously sweet 
kernels. The stalks grow from 4 to 5 feet high, 
producing a good-sized golden ear. The color 
is very often misleading to those who do not 
know this variety, but a trial will convince anyone 
that the quality is excellent. Pkt. 15 cts.; lb. 60 
cts.; 10 lbs. $4; 100 lbs. $25.

canner’s hybrid. It shows more heat and drought 
tolerance than Golden Cross Bantam. The ears 
are 7 to 8 inches long, very uniform, cylindrical 
with rounded tip, 12 to 16 rowed. The kernels are 
light yellow and of fine quality and flavor. Pkt.
