SUPERIOR VEGETABLE SEEDS

CORN--Table Varieties 



(FIELD CORN— Page 51). 

 1 quart to 200 hills; 3 quarts per acre. 



Sugar 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 va- 

 rieties may be either sown one inch deep in rows three to four feet apart, the 

 seeds being placed about 8 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 3 plants stand to a hill. The size of the varietv and the richness of the 

 soil should determine the distance of planting. Cultivate frequently and 

 thoroughly but shallow until the tassels appear.
