TREAT YOUR SEED CORN 
Many growers are 
getting better stands 
and therefore, better 
crops by treating their 
seed with SEMESAN, 
Jr. It protects the seed 
from rotting in the 
ground. The cost is so 
low that no one can 
afford not to take ad¬ 
vantage of this cheap 
crop insurance. 
Two ounces will treat 
a bushel of seed corn.

Spanish Gold Sweet Corn 
WELSHKOBN (Ger.) Sweet Corn 
One pound, will plant about 400 hills; 12 pounds to the acre. 
The home gardener in Northern Ohio plants Corn as early as May 1 
and as late as July 15. For a succession of harvests, early, medium and 
late varieties are sown at the same time. Because they are smaller, 
early varieties are spaced 8 to 10 inches apart in 30- to 36-inch rows, 
while the larger and later sorts are placed 12 to 14 inches between 
plants. If you have not done so, by all means sow some of the new 
hybrid corns .... they are rapidly replacing many of the old standbys. 
Golden Early Market. (Gill’S). (65 days). All around extra early 
Corn. Those who have tried this Corn found it to be as early as any 
large yellow Sweet Corn yet introduced. Market growers find Golden 
Early Market a profitable Corn to grow as it comes on the market just 
when the price is at the top notch. Ears measure about 7 inches, have 
12 to 14 rows of pure golden kernels. The quality of the Corn is excel¬ 
lent. It is one of the outstanding early Corns, and is a money-maker 
for gardeners. Seed grown expressly for us.

fertility of the soil. Ears are 7 inches in length with 10 to 12 rows 
of rich golden grains.
