Be sure to plant Hybrid Sweet Corn this year. Years of study and experimentation prove 
that hybrids bring in more than double the return of old open-pollinated kinds. But not all Hy- 
brids are good. Extreme care must be taken to buy seed only from firms that know hybrids and 
exercise all precautions to insure purity of strains. We have the finest group of Corn-breeders in 
America growing our seed. They are constantly working to insure the purity of varieties in 
production and test thousands of new sorts every year, seeking even better kinds. It is with 
pride that we state that some of the largest and best Sweet Corn growers in the East are using 
ever-increasing quantities of our Sweet Corn seed. The following list comprises what experience 
has shown us to be the very best hybrids available in each maturity group. 
As one of the characteristics of Hybrid Sweet Corn ts uniform maturity, be sure to plant a 
series of small plantings of Corn rather than a few big plantings. By making many small plant- 
ings you will have fine-quality Sweet Corn from a date 65 days after the first planting until 
frost. Give your customers good Corn and then have a supply at all times and you will top the 
market every season. 
CuxtureE: Corn should never be planted until the ground has become warm and dry. For succession, plant every 
two weeks until the middle of July. Corn thrives in rich, well-manured ground. In hand planting make a shallow hole 
with corner of the hoe, drop 6 kernels of Corn, cover with an inch of soil, and press down with the hoe. Hills should be 
3 feet apart. Thin out to 3 plants in each hill. Extra-early varieties can be planted as close as 114 feet apart.
