Black Mexican
This corn, when in condition for the table, cooks remarkably white, but the ripe grain is black or blueish-black. It is surpassed by none in tenderness and fine quality. For family use we consider it the most desirable second early sort. It does especially well for for second early in the South. Stalks about 6 feet high.

Country Gentleman
This is considered by most people to be the best sort of sweet corn for having corn on the cob. The kernels are small, tender and extremely long- the cob being unusually small. The flavor is delightful – it is sweet, milky and tender. Very prolific, often growing 3 ears to a stalk. Country Gentleman is a slow-maturing variety and arrives at full perfection just about the time when the early varieties are giving out. To have a generous amount of sweet corn does not require a large space. Plant some Country Gentleman this year.

A very desirable main crop variety for home garden and market, and well adapted for canning.

Golden Bantam
(8 row) A dwarf-growing early variety. The plant attains a height of only 3 to 4 feet, usually bearing two or more ears about 5 inches long to a stalk. These little fat ears are compactly filled with kernels which when ready for the table are cream-yellow, so lusciously sweet, tender and milky that some people claim it “the sweetest Corn on earth”. Golden Bantam is one of the hardiest corns grown, therefore can be planted earlier with safety than other varieties. This characteristic also adapts it to localities having cool summer weather, a continuous supply being maintained by successive planting.

There are 12 to 24 rows of good sized white kernels.
