We have devoted a great deal of time and study to the improvement of 
our stocks of Sweet Corn. Not only have we given care to the selection and 
improvement of our types, but we have been most careful in testing our 
stock seed, ear by ear, for root rot and other troublesome diseases, and then 
by ear to row plantings have been able to check the results obtained, eliminate 
disease if found, and improve our types as well. 
CULTURE— Corn requires a good soil and a warm situation. Commence for 
first early by planting the early varieties about May 1, and if a continuous 
supply is wanted all summer, make plantings about two weeks apart from 
May 1 until the last of July. Plant in rows 3 feet apart, and make the hills 
about the same distance apart in the rows. Five kernels in a hill are plenty. 
Cover about 1 inch deep for early, and a little deeper for late. Thin to three 
plants in a hill. 
One quart will plant 200 hills; 1 peck will plant 1 acre in hills
