CORN, Sweet or Sugar 



This delicious vegetable may be enjoyed from earh- summer until frost if the 

 proper varieties are selected and planted for succession at intervals of every two 

 weeks until the middle of Jul}-. If the seed is planted too early, before the ground 

 becomes warm, it is liable to decay. Plant in hills 3 or 4 feet apart each way, five to 

 six kernels to a hill ; or in rows 4 or 5 feet apart, scattering the seeds thinly in the 

 rows. The taller-growing the variety, the richer should be the soil and the wider the 

 space allowed for development. One quart will plant 200 hills. 



If to be sent ty mail, add 10 cents per quart for postage. 10-cent packets oJ all 

 kinds sent postpaid
