Roasting Ear 
and Sweet Corn 
Plant 1 peck of seed per acre 
Here is a crop that never fails to 
bring profitable returns to Florida 
truckers when put on the market early. 
Culture. Plant in well-fertilized rows, 
3 feet apart, and a hill every 1 Vz feet 
in the drill; leave one and two stalks to 
the place. When about knee high, apply 
about 100 pounds Ammo-Phos “B” and 
same amount again when Corn begins 
to silk and tassel. This will not only 
give you almost twice the yield, but 
bring your crop to maturity 10 days 
earlier. For the bud-worms, use 1 pound 
Powdered Arsenate of Lead and 4 
pounds of Hydrated Lime. Drop a little 
in the bud. Ship in pepper crates, six to 
eight dozen to the package. Earliest 
plantings are made from January 1 
until March.

Tuxpan, ( 8 ® days.) This is a new variety of roast- 
----ling-ear Corn. Bred originally from a Mex¬ 
ican strain, it has shown up so well in our trials that we 
have decided to introduce it in Florida. It is very late 
and grows to a height of 12 to 14 feet. The ears are 
very Tong, with 14 to 16 rows of kernels, and the husks 
are very long and tight, virtually making it impossible 
for the ear-worm to enter. The husked ear has a most 
attractive pearly white color. Its immense stalk makes 
good fodder as well as large ears. Pkt. 10c; 34lb. 15c; 
lb. 20c; 2 lbs. 35c; postpaid. Not prepaid, 14 lbs. (pk.)
