SWEET CORN 
NOTE.— 1 guarantee my Corn to germinste. After you 
get It. plant twenty-five seeds in a box or flower-pot, attend 
to It properly, and prove to your own satisfaction that my 
seed will serniinate satisfactorily, as I say. I cannot, however 
, , , o ^ r~ J ■ ,■ , , . , Eiiarantce the crop against weather and soil conditions. These 
arc beyond my control. Sweet Corn seed is liable to rot if planted in too wet or cold ground. My Sweet Com is all oa™ 
fuUy selected, gilt-edged stock, tipped, butted and tested. 'jwwi ^orn is au care 
HOW TO GROW SWEET CORN.— Prepare the soil thoroughly; enrich it by working in manure. Com needs it. Wizard Brand' 
Pulverized Sheep Manure is fine for Com (we have itj. For horse cultivation, make rows 3 feet apart, for the home-irarden 2 feet 
fS"^lu"t^^f1* hills from 1 to 2 feet apart in the rows. The early varieties, producing smaller stalks, can be planted closer 
than the big late Corns. If planted very early, before the soil is warm, of course you take some risk of the seed rotting If it does 
don t blame the seed; remember that you took a risk against nature. Most gardeners take such a risk in order to get verv earlv 
crops. Cover seed lightly when planted early— about Viinch and 1 to 1 inches when soil is warm, and deeper in summer when 
soil is dry. Remember that seed needs moisture and warmth to germinate it. To have Corn all season, plant everv two weeks 
up to July IS. One quart will plant 200 hills; 10 quarts to an acre. ' ^ ' "eel's 
Mr. Adam P, Smith, of Lebanon Count>', Pa., like thousands of others, praises Schell's Silver Beautv Sweet Corn Hfr. 
writes us, September 21, 1921.— "I wa,s very well pleased with your Silver Beauty; surely it is a wonder. Nothing like it."
