Sweet Corn 
One Found for 150 hills, 10 to 12 lbs. in hills for an acre. 
CULTURE]—Plant in rows 3 feet apart in hills 3 y 2 feet 
apart, drop in each hill 4-5 seeds, later thin out to two plants 
in each hill. Closer planting than this means, even on rich 
ground, less and smaller ears. Plant deep, 3 to 4 inches, so 
that in case of frost the plants will have a chance to come up 
from the root which unless the frost is very severe are un¬ 
hurt. | 
Which Sweet Corn Is the Best? Se w £g 
flower for early, September Morn and Stowell’s Evergreen for late. 
The best paying early market variety with white ears is Early 
Reliance. 
In the yellow eared sorts Bantam is still leading. However, those 
that grow for market will do better financially, growing Sunshine or 
Early Golden Rod, both exceptionally high in quality and ahead in 
earliness. The finest sort for the South is Kendell’s Early Giant. 
Southern growers should also try Early Adams which is a field coru 
variety passing for sweet corn, lacks quality but is very early, 
seldom attacked by the worms and a good seller. 
Golden Early Market is an important new early corn.
