Postpaid at pound prices. For larger quantities 
y Parcel Post, add postage 
Culture—Plant about May 15th and in 
succession every two weeks up to July 14th. 
Drop six kernels to a hill. Let the hills be 
3 feet apart each way for dwarf sorts and 
slightly more for tall varieties. Sometimes 
Corn is sown in rows 3 feet apart, allowing 
10 inches between the individual plants. 
Three or more rows should be planted, how- 
ever, either way in order to secure cross 
fertilization. 
New Hybrid Varieties 
The greatest improvement in Sweet Corn 
in recent years is the development of these 
hybrids that outyield all others and are also 
resistant to Stewart’s disease. We caution 
our customers against saving their own seed 
for planting as Hybrid Corn will not give 
best results unless carefully crossed each 
year by experts.

FOR THE CONTROL OF THE 
EUROPEAN CORN BORER 
We recommend ‘*Black Leaf’? Dual- 
Fixed Nicotine Dust. Apply at full strength 
using a hand duster. Dust the growing whorls 
of the main stalks and each tiller, and each 
of the developing ears when present. These 
are the points attacked by the young borers, 
hence require the protection afforded by the 
Dust. Timing is important—start as soon as 
the first eggs hatch, and repeat applications 
at 5-day intervals for about two weeks, or as 
long as required. Hatching usually starts 
by the middle of June.
