Plant, in hills about three feet apart, drop four or five seeds and thin out to two or 

 three. Where the ground is strong the Adam's Extra Early and Crosby's Sugar can be 

 planted in hills two and a half feet apart, as these two varieties are more dwarfish than 

 the other kinds. Plant for a succession from February to June.

Sugar. This is a very tender variety and 

 of excellent quality. Ears small, but very 

 sweet. It is not so extensively planted as 

 it deserves to be. 



Adam's Extra Early. The earliest 

 kind, but ears are small, and not as de- 

 sirable as the Adam's Early, which follows 

 this variety closely in maturity. 



Adam's Early. This is almost exclu- 

 sively planted for the first roasting ears by 

 the market gardeners. The ears are of good 

 size, but otherwise for the table only, same 

 as common corn. Strange to say, the gar- 

 deners do not plant any sugar corn for the 

 market. We sell hundreds of bushels of 

 St. Charles and other varieties of field corn, 

 to be planted for the market, to be sold 

 green. 



Early Sugar or New England. A 

 long eight- rowed variety, which succeeds 

 the Extra Early sorts. Desirable kind. 



is the best of all Sugar Corn. It is early, 

 the ears are of large size and are well filled. 

 It remains green longer than any other 

 variety, and is quite productive. The cul- 

 tivation of this excellent cereal, as well as 

 all other Sugar Corn, is much neglected, 

 yet why people will plant common field- 

 corn for table use, considering size instead 

 of quality, we cannot understand. 



Golden Dent Gourd Seed. A field 

 variety which is very productive at the 

 North. It makes a fine corn South, but 

 has to be planted here several years in 

 succession before it attains perfection, as 

 during the first year the ears are not well 

 covered by the husk, which is the case with 

 all Northern varieties. When selected and 

 planted here for a few years, it becomes ac- 

 climated and makes an excellent Corn, 

 with large, fine ears, grain deep and cob of 

 medium size.
