become warm, in hills three feet apart each way covering about half an inch, and thin out to 3 plants to a hill. The extra early 
varieties can be planted 16 inches in the row and two and a half feet between the rows. 
Ferguson's New Early Malcolm 
THE MOST WONDERFUL SWEET CORN OF THE AGE. 
A distinct and valuable addition to the early sweet corns. It is 
very sweet, juicy and tender. In colour, it is a rich cream white. 
It has the finest flavor and is the best tasting sweet corn of any of the 
so-called extra early varieties. It is extremely early and is ready to 
use from six to ten days sooner than any other sweet corn grown, and 
is larger than any of the earliest or medium-early varieties. The ears 
are of large size. Early Malcolm Sweet Corn is especially adapted 
for planting in Northern latitudes and in high altitudes where 
other vaiieties fail entirely. With all its strong points Early 
Malcolm will easily be a leader. Pkt., 10 cts. ; H lb., 25 ctB ; lb., 
40 cts. (post paid, lb., 50 cts.).

"than the extra early Cory when both are

while the grains are so much whiter and sweeter that it should really 
be compared with the second-early Crosby's Twelve-Rowed and 
other varieties of a later season. Lb., 25 cts. (post paid, lb., 35 cts.).
