Golden Bantam. 
*142, GOLDEN BANTAM. (80 days.) 
Most popular variety in the United States. Hvery- 
one likes Golden Bantam. Indeed, many people 
will not take any other when it is obtainable. 
The flavor is deliciously distinct, superior to that 
of any other open pollinated corn. The small 
8-rowed ears, usually less than 7 inches in 
length and several on a stalk, are perhaps higher 
in sugar content than any other corn but the 
hybrids. The kernels are tender, very wide and 
of good depth, and the flavor delicious. Pkt., 10c;

MINHYBRID. (83 
South American Mushroom, 
days.) The Min- 
nesota Experiment Station has developed a Hy- 
brid Hulless or Tom Thumb Pop Corn which 
seems to be the last word in pop corn. Like 
all hybrids, it stands up well, has a heavy root 
growth. Ears are chunky and about 4 inches 
long. In developing this hybrid, popping quali- 
ties and size were of first importance. It 
matures earlier than Hulless and is resistant 
to smut damage. Trials show a 16 per cent 
greater yield and 29 per cent greater popping 
expansion, Prices: /Pkt.. 1bc; 72) pkts.. 25es 1,
