96—AUTUMN KING SAVOY (105 days)—A very fine, sure heading 
strain, making a large deep green head with not too many outer leaves 
and is medium early. It is a great improvement over the standard 
Drumhead Savoy, having a more attractive color and far superior in 
heading qualities. This is a winter cabbage and should not be planted 
until July or August, as it will not head up hard during hot weather. 
No other winter cabbage can compare with it in flavor.

POP CORN FOR SEED 
Autumn King: Savoy 
SOUTHERN COLLARDS 
An old-time standby for winter greens all over the South. Not 
in its best condition until touched by frost. Seed can be sown 
here from early spring up to August 1st. When plants are 6 
inches high transplant to open ground, setting 2 feet apart. 
Cultivate like cabbage. 1 ounce of seed sows 200 feet of row, or 
makes about 3,000 plants. 
127—GEORGIA WHITE CABBAGE (48 days)—Whiter and 
more tender than the Blue Stem. Introduced 15 years ago. 
Three-fourths of them bunch or head up in winter, weigh¬ 
ing 10 pounds or more. Plants grow 20 to 30 inches high 
and as much across.

GARDEN CORN 
Dynamite or South American 
Popcorn was known and grown by the Indians of North and South America 
before the coming of the white man—as an article of commerce popcorn has 
developed very rapidly since about 1880. The use of popcorn in confections and 
the rapid increase in popcorn concessions in connection with amusement parks, 
moving picture theaters, etc., has greatly increased the demand for a reliable 
bulk product and has made a profitable outlet for those who desire to grow pop¬ 
corn on a commercial scale. Popcorn requires the same kinds of soil, climate 
and general methods of cultivation as field corn. You can get more complete 
information on growing, harvesting and marketing popcorn by writing the 
Department of Agriculture, Washington, D. C., for Farmers Bulletin No. 1679. 
CULTURE—For field planting rows should be about 3 feet apart. Thin to 1 
stalk about every 6 inches in row. A 10c package will plant a nice row in the 
garden; a pound will plant a good patch ; 5 to 6 pounds will plant an acre 
drilled in check rows 40 inches apart. There are about 3,000 grains in a pound 
of our seed st ock . 
34—DYNAMITE (120 days)—The new South American or Australian 
giant variety. A vigorous grower, 6 to 8 feet tall, producing 2 and often 
3 ears, 8 to 9 inches long, with deep orange kernels, smooth and round, 
which pop double the size of others. Rich creamy yellow, crisp, ten¬ 
der, deliciously flavored and no hard centers. Outsells all other sorts 
at the popcorn stands. This variety is used more than all others for 
commercial planting and has been very profitable in the South for 
three years, owing to the drouths in the West where most of the pop¬ 
corn is grown. It is usually unwise, especially for the amateur popcorn 
grower, to plant a large acreage following a year of high prices like 
the 1936 crop.

31— POPCORN (Japanese Hull-less)—Very small, white full ears. Not 
as heavy bearing, but some popcorn men prefer it at a higher cost 
than all others for popping. 
Pkt., Vi lb., 10c; Vi lb., 15c; 1 lb., 20c; 2 lbs., 35c; 5 lbs., 65c 
32— POPCORN (White Rice)—Has white, large pointed grains that pop 
nicely. Pkt., Vi lb., 10c; Vi lb., 15c; 1 lb., 20c; 2 lbs., 35c; 5 lbs., 65c

Golden Bantam 
GARDEN AND SWEET CORN 
CULTURE—The grains of sweet corn are shriveled and rather 
tender and cannot be planted quite as early as field varieties. 
Leaves on trees should be well out and the ground warm before 
planting. Make hills 2% to 3 feet apart each way, dropping 6 or 
6 grains in each hill, thinning out afterward to 2 or 3 stalks 
to the hill. A continuous supply can be kept up by planting 
early, medium and late varieties at one time, or by making 
several plantings at intervals of 15 days. Seed required: One 
pound to 200 hills; about 14 pounds (1 peck) per acre. 
EXTRA EARLY VARIETIES 
135—EXTRA EARLY ADAMS (Sweet) (65 days)—Owing 
to its extreme earliness it is used for a first early table 
corn in the South. The stalks are about 4 feet high, with 
small tassel, very few leaves, and without suckers. The 
ears are short, very full, 12 to 14-rowed, often nearly as 
thick as they are long and well covered with coarse husks. 
Pkt., Vi lb., 10c; Vz lb., 20c; 1 lb., 30c; 2 lbs., 40c; 5 lbs., 75c 
134—GOLDEN BANTAM (Sugar) (70 days)—The sweetest 
and most delicious extra early corn for the home garden. 
Extremely early and very productive. The stalks grow 
only 5 feet in height and, where space is limited, the hills 
can be as close as 2% feet apart. Each stalk bears 2 or 3 
well-filled ears, 6 to 7 inches in length. The kernels are 
of a beautiful yellow color, very milky, tender and sweet. 
Pkt., Vi lb., 10c; Vi lb., 20c; 1 lb., 35c; 2 lbs., 50c; 5 lbs., $1.00
