SWEET CORN. 
When ordering to be sent by mail 
’add postage at zone rate. Average 
weight, 1 pint equals 1 lb.; 1 quart equals 2 lb. 
The Cultivation of Sweet Corn.— Plant in a rich, wfcrm soil, 
in rows 3 ft. apart for early sorts and 4 ft. apart for the late sorts. 
Place hills 2 to 3 ft. apart in the rows. The seed is liable to rot if 
planted in wet or cold ground. Yet, if we have an early warm 
period in spring it often pays to take some risks, as the plants, 
when once up, will often escape injury from belated frosts. May 
15th is early enoug h to plant for seasonable crops. For succession 
plant every two weeks to July 15th. 1 quart of seed will plant 200 
hills, 8 to 10 quarts to an acre.
