i STANDARD SWEET OR SUGAR CORNS. 
> A good money crop for near-by markets. Every body can grow this crop with profit. 
> CULTURE.—Sweet corn always does well on sod land, or where clover has been turned down. Plant when dan- 
© ger of frost is over, in hills 2x3 feet, or 3x4 feet, according to variety. Give frequent and continued shallow 
= culture. Leave3 stalks to the hill, and make successional plantings until nearly mid-summer. Use 1 quart 
#g- for 600 hills; 6 to 8 quarts per acre. Cover seed with an inch of soil. 
ea THE CORY.—This is the earliest sweet corn, except First of All. It was originated in Rhode LSS 
Te Island, by a market gardener named Cory, and for years headed the list of quick maturing As ~ 
| sorts. It is still in widefavor. Very dwarf,and may be closely planted. Two earstoa 
Stalk; cobred. Fit for use in 52 days from planting. Often grown as a sec- 
*$¢ ondcrop,in autumn. It is quite possible to realize as much clear cash 
> on early sales of the Cory, as on sales of the larger and later varieties of 
“$= sweetcorn. Pkt., 10c.; pt., 20c.; qt., 35c., postpaid. Pk., 75c.; bu., $2.50. 
NEW WHITE COB CORY.-— An offspring of the Cory, witha 
gs: white cob. In earliness, dwarf habit and other qualities, it is pre- 
sup cisely the same as “he red cob Cory, and while I do not regard it as 
being materially different from its parent, except in size of ear, 
N L which is larger, I notice that it is in brisk demand in some markets.
