THE SEVEN BEST VARIETIES OF SWEET CORN FOR MONTANA AND THE NORTHWEST 
1 pound for 100 hills or 150 to 200 feet of drill; 15 pounds to acre; 1 pound is a little more than a 
pint; 2 pounds a little more than a quart. 
Sweet Corn is very sensitive to frost and should not be planted until danger from freezing is past 
or about the middle of May in Montana. A rich, warm, good ordinary soil will raise excellent Sweet 
Corn, if it is deeply and thoroughly worked before planting. If planted in rows, make the rows three 
feet apart and 12 to 1G inches apart in the row; cover one inch deep with fine soil firmly pressed down. 
If planted in hills, make the hills three feet apart each way, and plant four to six kernels to the hill. 
Hoe frequently and when six inches high cut off all the suckers so as to leave three or four plants to 
the hill; do not let the plants overcrowd. Give frequent and thorough but shallow cultivation until 
the tassels appear. In cooking Corn use boiling water; do not cover the vessel and do not cook more 
than ten minutes. “Use no salt”—a pinch of sugar will add to the natural sweetness. 
EXTRA EARLY VARIETIES 
S. N. & S. Co’s. Golden Glory, Earliest and Hardiest Sweet 
Corn in the World 
Golden Glory— A Montana grown Sweet Corn of high 
merit; growth about 5% feet, producing 2 or 3 ears to 
the stalk, and considerably larger than the average 
Golden Bantam. The illustration is a good average 
specimen of a 12-row, 8-inch ear. Sweet, creamy and 
tender, remaining in roasting ear stage a long time. 
With these qualifications this wonderful Corn can be 
grown to maturity wherever Golden Bantam can; we 
predict that it will be your first choice this season. In 
addition to its merits as a table Sweet Corn this va¬ 
riety is destined to be a popular variety on account of 
its- extreme earliness, which is ten days to two weeks 
earlier than the Golden Bantam. Price: Pkt., 10c;
