CULTURE. — Sugar Corn may be planted in rows 3 to 4 feet apart, and the seeds placed about 8 inches apart in the rows, 

 or planted in hills 3 to 4 feet apart each way, according- to variety grown or richness of soil. Do not let more than three 

 plants remain in each hill. It can be planted in this vicinity from first of May to last of July for succession of crop. By 

 planting every two weeks a family may have good corn throughout the whole season.

NINETY-DAY CORN (Red Cob). — This is an elegant corn for truckers and market gardeners, as it Is as good a seller as 

 green corn, and if not used as green corn makes a good variety for feeding purposes. It may be planted for early crop, and at 

 intervals until the middle of July. Many truckers use it for their late planting, as it produces a very sure crop.
