Hybrid varieties. Will not reproduce true the 
oot COUL second year, consequently do not save seed 
from the crop. 

Plant % lb. for 100 feet of row, 12 to 14 lbs. per acre. The fresher 
sweet corn is, the better the flavor. Plant for a succession, using some 
of the extra early, early and main crop varieties. A month to six weeks 
later plantings of early sorts may be made for late use. We suggest 
vlantings of Golden Cross Bantam at 10 day intervals until August Ist 
in this latitude. If white and yellow corns are planted adjoining, cross 
pollination will cause the ears to produce some off color kernels. Do not 
plant sweet corn near field corn. It is better to use three or four short 
rows instead of one long one. Transfer of pollen is better resulting in 
more desirable ears. Warm weather, moderate moisture and rich soil 
are desirable but most garden soil will do if worKed deeply and thor- 
oughly before planting. Wait until the ground is warm and avoid the 
seed rotting. Rows may be spaced 2% to 4 feet apart. Use a wider 
planting for taller varieties. In drills, plant 5 or 6 seeds to the foot; 
in hills, 5 to 6 seeds per hill. When plants are about 5 inches tall,- thin 
to 10 to 12 inches apart. Cultivate well and keep free from weeds.
