cession, plant every two weeks until middle of July, in rich, well-manured ground, in shallow furrows feet apart, thinning out to 
stand 1 foot apart in the rows, or in hills 3 feet apart each way, thinning out to stand three plants in a hill. 
One pound will plant about 100 hills, or 150 to 200 feet of row

POP-CORN 
Pop-Corn is frequently planted in the garden 
as a curiosity and to interest and please the 
children, but we would caution gardening friends 
against planting Pop-Corn near Sweet Corn, as 
they cross quite readily, and to the detriment of 
both types. Pop-Corn ears should be allowed to 
become thoroughly ripened on the stalk before 
they are gathered. The grain must be thoroughly 
dry before it can be popped; that is, grains a 
year old will pop more satisfactorily than those 
which are freshly gathered. 
QUEEN’S GOLDEN. Pops perfectly white, 
and a single kernel will expand to a diameter 
of nearly 1 inch. Lb. 20 cts.; 3 lbs. for 50 cts. 
WHITE RICE. The most popular white variety, 
of excellent popping qualities. Lb. 20 cts.; 
3 lbs. for 50 cts. 
DANDELION 
A very superior quality of Dandelion greens 
may be had by sowing seed in May or June in 
very shallow drills, 15 to 18 inches apart. Seed¬ 
lings should be thinned to 6 or 8 inches. A 
winter mulch is necessary after the ground be¬ 
comes firmly frozen. Cultivated Dandelions have 
broader leaves and are in every way superior to 
the wild plants. The leaves are popular both 
for cooking and salads. They require rich soil.
