BREEDERS AND GROWERS OF VEGETABLE SEEDS 13 SWEET CORN-Continued (Hybrids) Height Length Days from of stalk of ear planting to feet inches eating stage MINHYBRID NO. 202 5 to 6 6 to 8 76 A development of the Minnesota Agricultural Experiment Station particularly desirable for packing corn-on-the-cob; one of the few eight rowed yellow hybrids. Stalk sturdy, medium tall. Ears predominately eight rowed. Kernels medium large, yellow, of quality comparable with Golden Bantam; cob extremely small. This variety is probably best suited to areas with short season and long davs. TOP CROSS BANTAM 6 7to7^ 86 Our introduction developed from crossing a drought resistant Golden Bantam and a prepotent inbred; introduced in 1931. Placed in first rank in recent freezing tests. Similar in plant characteristics to Golden Cross Bantam but not quite as uniform. Stalk sturdy with vigorous leaves. Ears 10 to 14 rowed ; color deep yellow, similar to Golden Bantam. Kernels medium, tender and sweet. Highly resistant to Stewart's dis- ease and very productive. TOP CROSS MAINE BANTAM One of our recent developments particularly adapted for short season areas; introduced in 1934. Stalk sturdy with deep green foliage; ear as long as Golden Cross Bantam and somewhat thicker, very slightly tapered with 10 to 14 rows; kernels deep yellow, tender and of excellent flavor. Very successful results are being obtained from this new introduc- tion. Highly resistant to Stewart's disease. TOP CROSS WHIPPLE'S YELLOW or Whipcross P39 . This very uniform intermediate top cross was developed primarily for home and market garden use, but in freezing tests has been given the rating Good. Stalk sturdy with strong foliage; highly resis
