Plant about first week in May and at intervals. The varieties in the 

 first column are the best for table use. Adam's Early, is the hardiest, 

 and can be planted about the middle of April, and is the first corn that 

 appears in the market, but cannot compare with the Svgar, or the Ev- 

 ergreen, which are, without question, the best for culinary purposes. 



The Sugar Corn being liable to rot in cold or wet ground, should not 

 be planted until May, and for a succession, continue planting every 

 two weeks, until the middle of July, in well-manured ground, in hills 

 three feet apart.

The first three are the earliest and most esteemed table varieties. 



The White-Spined retains its green color much longer than any oth- 

 er variety, and is principally grown for our markets. The Long Green 

 and Gherkin are mostly used for pickles. For early use, plant about 

 first week in May, on a warm and sheltered border. For pickles plant 

 in the middle of July.
