SWEET CORN 
Our Northern Grown Sweet Com is far superior in quality and earliness to the same varieties raised from seed 
grown in the south and west where most of the sweet com seed is grown. 
One pound plants about 200 hills, 12 to 14 pounds to an acre. For succession, plant about every 2 weeks from 
April to the end of July; ready for the table 60 to 90 days from planting. 
Culture. Garden-Field varieties can be planted at the end of March or early in April. Sugar or Sweet Corns 
are more tender and should not be planted until warm weather is settled and the ground becomes warm. Cultivate 
frequently and keep the ground free of weeds.

is the sweetest of all Corns; its plump, rich, cream- 
yellow kernels are tender, milky and delicious. All our
