211 Golden Giant 



Cullure: Plant the seed after all danger of frost is over and the ground has warmed up. Sow in rows 



3 to 4 ft. apart. Cover tlie seeds about one inch deep. Space tiie seed 8 in. apart in the rows. The 

 most popular method, however, for field planting is to drop 3 to 4 seeds in hills spaced either 3 by 



4 ft. or 4 by 4 ft. Allow 2 to 3 plants to remain in each hill. In order to provide a continuous supply 

 of good fresh corn, make succession plantings until about July 10. The final date of planting, of 

 course, depends entirely upon your climatic condition. A packet of seed will plant four rows, each 

 25 ft. long; 3-2 lb. for 200 hills; Ul-i lbs. per acre.
