THE BEST SWEET CORN 
Nerthern Grown Seed Corn Means Earlier Crops 
Sweet Corn can be raised on any good, ordinary soil that is thoroughly worked. Plant five kernels to the — 
hill, which should be about 3 feet apart each way, or plant in rows, one seed every 3 inches, covering seed 
with about 1 inch of soil firmly pressed down. Thin out to three plants to a hill. For succession, plant every © 
two weeks up to July 15th. A pkg. will sow a row 50 ft. long or 30 hills; 1 Ib. 1000 ft. of row or 400 hills. 
Hybrid Sweet Corn 
Hybrid Corns are crosses between an inbred strain 
and a standard variety or a crossing of two inbreds. 
To produce Hybrid Corn this must be done each year. 
Do not save seed from Hybrids, it will not come true 
the following season. Get new Hybrid Corn seed 
each year. Hybrid Corns are of special value to com- 
mercial growers because the ears from one planting 
mature at the same time. If you want Corn over a 
longer period from one planting, use the open- 
pollinated varieties such as Golden Bantam. 
*Gelden Cross Bantam. New York State 
Grown Certified Seed. The highest quality hybrid 
Sweet Corn that we have seen. The ears are about 
8 inches long, with 14 rows of cream colored kernels. 
Golden Cross is ready for use in about 84 days. Stalks 
are 4 to 5 feet high, thrifty growers, and bear two 
ecrs to a plant. We believe it is one of the leading 
yellow Sweet Corns, and recommend it to all pro- 
gressive gardeners.

Corn is ready to harvest when the silk starts to 
turn dark brown and the kernels, when dented with 
the finger nail, show a milky juice. 
Sweet Corn to be at its best should be cooked 
within thirty minutes of being picked. 
Varieties of Sweet Corn will mix, providing they 
are in silk and tassel at the same time.
