Sugar and Sweet Corn should not be planted until May, or 
when the ground is warm. For succession, plant about every 
two weeks until the last of July. All varieties may be either 
sown one inch deep in rows three to four feet apart, the seeds 
being placed about & inches apart in the rows, or they may be 
planted in hills at distances of three or four feet apart each 
way, allowing not more than 8 plants stand to a hill. The size 
of the variety and the richness of the soil should determine the 
distance of planting. Cultivate frequently and thoroughly but 
shallow until the tassels appear,
