SUGAR CORN 

Corn is an’excellent source of vitamin B; and an 
outstanding one of the mineral, phosphorus. Two 
ears per plant is a good average yield. 
May be gathered daily from July to frost if you 
plant every three weeks, from May 1 through 
July 15. It is a good idea to use more than one 
variety to keep you further supplied daily with 
fresh delicious Corn. 
Sow hybrid, early, and Jate sorts in rows 1 inch 
deep, placing the seeds 3 inches from one another 
in the drill; later thin the young plants to stand 
9 to 12 inches apart. Allow 3 feet between the 
rows. Or sow in “‘hills’’ or groups 2 to 3 feet apart, 
the size of a dinner-plate, 7 seeds to each group; 

Grow the midget closer than this. Rows may be 
2 feet apart, thinning to 6 inches. If you grow in 
hills, place them 114 to.2 feet apart and make them 
the size of a saucer. 
Have blocks of at Ieast three rows side by side 
to ensure pollination. Hills or groups are not raised 
above the general garden level unless the land is 
very moist; ordinarily they are flat. 
_ Hills or groups of pumpkin and squash may be 
interplanted among your Corn. 
Destruction of the remains of each crop after 
harvesting is essential to check earworms and corn- 
borers. Spray with Rotene if Japanese beetles give 
trouble.
