SWEET CORN — Delicious Roasting Ears for Two Months 
1 Pound for 250 Hills, 1 3 Pounds per Acre—Sweet Corn Should Not Be Planted More Than IVi Inches Deep 
M OST of us make a single planting of sweet corn; consequently, we 
have those delicious ears for just a few days a year. You can spread 
this season over two months by planting different varieties at the 
same time maturing at different seasons; or by planting same varieties if 
you have a choice, a week or ten days between each planting. In the little 
town garden, a short row or maybe two or three dozen hills planted as early 
in May as possible, then two weeks later another row between potato rows 
and continue this for several plantings. You will be surprised at the increased 
value of this little garden. On the farm, plant a good acreage, enough to 
supply the house every day and a sufficient quantity for canning and drying. 
• GOLDEN SUNSHINE SWEET CORN 
An outstanding new variety of yellow corn, of 
exceptional merit. It was originated at the North 
Dakota Agricultural College. The ears are big¬ 
ger than those of Golden Bantam, are 16 rowed, 
and of deliciously rich flavor, light yellow in color. 
Sunshine is ready for use 6 to 10 days earlier 
than Bantam. The stalks are quite dwarf, with 
the ears set only 2 14 to 3 feet from the ground, 
usually 2 ears to the stalk. Those who have 
tried it are highly enthusiastic, and say itr is 
real sweet corn. 
It is the sweetest and the nicest corn I know 
of; good yielder, an exceptionally good corn for 
the market gardener. Prices: (4 pt., 10c;

GURNEY’S SWEET CORN 
PRICES ARE DOWN 
WHERE THEY BELONG 
At our ext remely low prices you can; not 
only plant enough Sweet Corn for the 
table, but plant 15 or 20 rows of the 
larger varieties along the pasture fence, 
and in summer when pastures are short, 
cut this for the stock. They will eat it 
stalks and all, and will relish it and do 
better than if fed field corn.
