 and allowing the corn to grow at will. In 

 both of these cases, some quick maturing 

 crop, such as lettuce or radishes, is grown

 To a great many people these last two 

 methods seem to be the most feasible for 

 growing sweet corn very early, because the 

 expense of growing under these conditions 

 is not as high as growing In the greenhouse, 

 nor Is the Investment as large. Where the 

 commercial grower has a selected market 

 w^hich is willing to pay a high price for 

 the product in advance of the season, it 

 Is quite advisable for the man to use these 

 methods of producing corn.
