HOW TO GROW SWEET CORN.—Prepare the soil 
C1 ™ a r or» o*or thoroughly; enrich it by working in manure. Corn needs it. 
AL,at» rAUti 14 Wizard Brand Pulverized Sheep Manure is fine for Corn (we 
have it). For horse cultivation, make rows 3 feet apart, for the home-garden 2 feet apart, and plant the hills from 1 to 2 feet apart 
in the rows. The early varieties, producing smaller stalks, can be planted closer than the big late Corns. If planted very early, 
before the soil is warm, of course you take some risk of the seed rotting. If it does, don’t blame the seed; remember that you 
took a risk against nature. Most gardeners take such a risk in order to get very early crops. Cover seed lightly when planted 
early—about V^ndi and 1 to 1V 2 inches when soil is warm, and deeper in summer when soil is dry. Remember that seed needs 
moisture and warmth to germinate it. Plant every two weeks up to July 15. One lb. will plant 150 hills; 12 lbs. to an acre.

Mr. James E. Rimedio, Ohio, writes: “Twenty-three years ought to be enough to convince any person. I have planted Schell’s 
Seeds since 1913. In this time I have experimented with others but Schell’s always proved superior. They can’t be beat. If I 
live until your Golden Anniversary, you will still find me buying and planting your seeds.” Fine, Mr. Rimedio; I appreciate 
your splendid letter.
