SWEET CORN 
CULTURE. Have your soil well prepared but do not 
plant sweet corn until the ground is warmed up thor- 
oughly. Then the early varieties may be planted in hills 
30 inches apart both ways while the later varieties should 
be planted 3 to 3% feet both ways. Plant 5 or 6 kernels 
to the hill from 1 to 2 inches deep.
