SUGAR or SWEET CORN 



Barden's A^'ondt'r Bantam Corn — A Giant Golden Bantain and Just as Sweet. 



Sweet Corn is the favorite crop in most American 

 srardens, and one of the easiest to grow. A deeply- 

 dug, moderately rich, well drained soil will give best 

 results. Wait until soil and weather are warm be- 

 fore sowing; the middle of May is generally safe for 

 the yellow varieties and two weeks later for the 

 whites. 



Sow in rows 2% to 3 feet apart; scatter seeds 3 to 

 4 inches apart and cover 2 inches deep, later thinning 

 out to 1 foot apart in the rows. Corn is also grown 

 in hills 3 feet apart each way for horse cultivation, 

 leaving three strong plants in each hill. Frequent 

 shallow cultivation is important — more necessary 

 with Corn, perhaps, than with any other garden crop. 



For succession, make sowings every ten days up 

 to July 15th. To insure good pollination and well 

 filled ears, grow Corn in several short rows, side by 

 side, rather than in one long row. 



One quart of seed will plant 200 Mils, or 400 feet 

 of row. 



If wanted by parcel post, add 8c per pt., 10c per qt. 



Yellow Varieties 



WHIFFIiE'S X:aRZ.Y YEl.I.aw. A superb new early 

 yellow Sweet Corn. Eiars are 7 to 8 inches and 12 

 or 1 4-rowed. A number of growers have reported 

 that it matures before Golden Bantam, but in our 

 trials it came about the same time or a little later. 

 In quality we would place it as second only to 

 Golden Bantam. See illustration. Pkt., lOc; pt.,
