^ RELIABLE VEGETABLE SEED// 



Golden Sunshine Sugar Corn 



Mais, fr. CORN, sweet or sugar 



One pound will plant 100 hills, or about 250 feet of row. 



CULTURE — Seed is liable to rot if planted in cold ground. Yet if we have an early warm 



spell in spring, it may pay to take some risk, as often the plants, when once up, escape injury 

 by frost. About middle of May plant in hills 3 feet apart each way, covering about 8 or 10 

 seeds half an inch and thin out to three plants to a hill, or plant in rows 3 feet apart, an I 

 thin out plants to stand 12 inches apart in the rows. For succession plant early sorts every 

 two weeks up to July 15.
