Seneca Dawn The Best Early Corn 

Four crews, two crews of men and two of girls, detassel our hybrid seed corn. 
certain fields free of tassels. 
Each crew has a foreman and is responsible for keeping 
The two rows with tassels furnish pollen, carried by the wind, to fertilize the detasseled rows between. 
EARLY HYBRID YELLOW SWEET CORN 
Vitamins Ab C g 
Plant after danger of frost, either in hills 30 to 36 
inches apart and 3 to 4 seeds per hill or in rows 30 to 
36 inches apart and 9 to 12 inches apart in the row. 
Golden Cross is a very vigorous grower and seems to 
do better in rows than hills. 
The early varieties may be planted closer in the row 
than the larger growing hybrids. It does no harm to 
plant different varieties of yellow corn together. They 
will cross, but this will not materially affect the quality 
of this year’s crop.
