Cnliiire. Seed of the sweetest varieties is 

 liable to rot if planted in wet or cold ground. 

 Yet if we have an early warm spell in Spring, 

 it may pay us to take some risks. Often the 

 plants when once up, will escape injury by a 

 belated light frost. Plant in warm soil 5 or £ 

 kernels to a hill making the rows 3 feet apart 

 for the dwarfer early sorts and 4 feet apart 

 for the taller late sorts. Hills to be 2 to 3 feet 

 apart in the rows, thin out to three plants in 

 a hill. Hoe often and draw soil up to the 

 stem, break offside shoots. 



To have the finest Sweet Com, it must be 

 picked in just the right condition; that is 

 when the skin of the gain breaks at the 

 slightest pressure, and plantings should be 

 made frequently enough to have a supply at 

 this stage. The quality will be inferior if il 

 is either a few days too old or too young. 



Extra Early 



Snow White Evergreen Sugar Com 



Second Early 



1068. Peep-o-Day. The two points to this remarkable Corn are its ex- 

 traordinary earlinessand unparalelled sweetness. So marked is its sweetness 

 and delicacy of flavor that many of our customers plant Peep-o-Day exclu- 

 sively, arranging the plantings a few days apart so as to have this delicious 

 Corn throughout the season. It is wonderfully productive. Ourcropsfor 

 three years almost double the yield per acre of any other variety we have 

 grown, early or late. Incredible as this may seem, it is readily accounted 

 for by the fact that the stalks bear from 3 to 5 ears each and the growth 

 being dwarf — about 4 feet — admits of a very close planting. Prices: Pt. 15c.
