IMPROVED SPANCROSS. Our new strain of Spancross is 
much better than the original—earlier, larger ears, and better 
quality. The plants are sturdy, resistant to cold and wilt, and 
very productive. The earliest hybrid and unbeatable for the 
extra early market. 
WASHINGTON. This fine hybrid matures some 4 days after 
the above variety. The ears are of good size. The kernels are 
sweeter, more tender, and of better quality than those of 
Marcross. Vigorous and productive growth. 
IMPROVED MARCROSS. An old and widely known variety, 
this has been very popular with market growers. The ears are 
of good size and usually have 12 rows of light yellow kernels 
of good quality. It matures a couple of days after Washington 
and nearly a week before Carmelcross. 
TUNKXIS. This is a new hybrid variety, an origination of Hunt- 
ington Brothers. In season with Marcross, it is more cold and 
wilt resistant and compares very favorably in eating qualities, 
attractiveness of ear, and yield. Work must still be done to fix 
the inbred parents, as it is not a finished variety. Right now 
it seems Well worth your giving it a thorough trial. 
CARMELCROSS. Our strain of this hybrid has been greatly 
improved and is the best we have ever offered of this mid- 
season favorite. There are 12 to 14 rows of golden yellow 
kernels on ears of good size. Growth is vigorous, thrifty, and 
extra productive. Maturing 6 days after Marcross and Tunxis, 
this variety is unsurpassed for its excellent quality. 
HOOSIER GOLD. A new variety, noted for its excellent 
quality, and maturing 5 days after Carmelcross. The ears are 
longer than those of the latter with 12 to 14 rows of deep yellow 
kernels of the very highest quality. A very high yielder, 
Hoosier Gold warrants a thorough trial. 
LEE. In the same season as Hoosier Gold, this is an older 
variety that is being grown more and more each year. The 
ears are large, cylindrical, and have 12 to 14 rows of broad 
yellow kernels of fine quality. We have improved this variety 
very much and the seed we offer is of the very best. 
GRANT. The largest-eared variety we offer, maturing 2 days 
after Lee. This hybrid is a very husky grower with a handsome 
ear which is very attractive to the midseason trade. Quality 
very good. Grant is very popular because the size of its ear 
appeals to customers.
