The result of 10 years breeding in crossing White Country Gentleman and Golden Bantam. This new variety is identical in stalk and ear characteristics with regular Country Gentleman except for its golden color. The fine flavor and rich color of the Bantam parent has been retained. Stalks sturdy, often with two ears. Kernels very deep, narrow, ten- der, arranged irregularly without row formation. This variety is distinct from other yellow zig-zag types as it has a much larger, more attractive ear with typical Country Gentleman kernel pattern. GOLDEN BANTAM. IMPROVED 5to6 6to6 84 Our development introduced in 1922. A selection from the original strain of Golden Bantam resulting in a larger ear with more rows and greater productivity. Ears 10 to 14 rowed, uniform and attractive. Kernels golden yellow, medium wide, deep, sweet, and of fine flavor; remain tender longer than regular Golden Bantam. Particularly desirable for canners and market gardeners.
