GARDEN CORN= 



Culture — ^Planting time Southern States: 

 February to July. Plant In hills 3 feet apart 

 in rows and rows 3 feet apart, four or five 

 seeds and thin out to 2 or 3. For best suc- 

 cess, seed corn should be planted within 

 three days from time of receipt from seed 

 house to avoid trouble from weevils. A 

 pound will plant about 400 hills. One peck to 

 an acre. Approximate number of days to 

 edible condition (roasting ears) on Sweet and 

 Sugar Com and to maturity on Field com is 

 given after each variety. This varies with 

 soil and climatic conditions. Corn is often 

 planted some each week during planting sea- 

 son so that the harvest will be throughout 

 ^^ the season.
