SWEET CORN 
(For Field and Roasting Ear 
Corn, See Pages 38 and 39) 
Plant 11 pounds (1 peck) per acre. In the garden make two plantings. Plant 4 lb. to 200 feet of row at each 
planting for a family of 3 or 4 people. 
This is a crop that never fails to bring profitable returns to 
Florida truckers when put on the market early. 
Cutture. Plant in well fertilized rows 2% to 3 feet apart, 
dropping 2 seeds every 12 to 15 inches in the row, leaving 1 
plant to a place. When about knee high, apply 200 pounds 
per acre of a quick-acting fertilizer high in available nitrogen 
and the same amount again when the corn begins to silk and 
tassel. This fertilizer application will greatly increase the 
yield, and will bring your crop to earlier maturity. Ship in 
special corn bags, five dozen to the bag. Early plantings are 
made in Florida from January 1 until March. For control of 
corn earworm see pages 51 and 69.

PAWNEE (GOLDEN HYBRID NO. 50) (mew). (72 
days.) This new hybrid was developed to meet the demand for 
a vigorous growing plant, with large, heavy, dark green leaves, 
that would produce a high yield of attractive, long, slim, 
cylindrical ears, covered with a dark green, long, tough, tight 
husk, making this variety very resistant to worms. The plants 
produce mostly two good marketable ears, covered clear to the 
tip with 14 to 16 rows of large, medium broad, lemon yellow, 
attractive shiny kernels. Easy to harvest, because the ear 
breaks from the plant easily, and husk clears ear easily. A 
most desirable, high yielding, worm resistant, high quality, 
attractive appearing market sweet corn.
