SWEET OR TABLE VARIETIES 
Culture — Corn can be sowed in hills three feet apart each way, or in drills four to four and a 
half feet. If sowed in hills 8 to 10 pounds are required to plant an acre, and if sowed in drills, it 
takes from 15 to 20 pounds. The soil must be rich and the seed not covered more than one inch, 
and not sowed before the ground is warm. Four to six kernels are dropped into a hill. The young 
corn must be hoed often, drawing the soil to the stems and breaking off side shoots. 
GOLDEN BANTAM— (New). 
The new stalks are vigorous and strong, grow about 4 feet high and produce 3 to 4 fine eight- 
rowed ears 6 to 8 inches long. On account of its firm texture it can be planted earlier than any 
other variety of Sweet Corn and is less apt to be bothered by worms. Pkt., 10c; lb., 30c, postpaid.
