Make Money Growing POPCORN 
We've tried about as many different kinds of popcorn as 
anyone in this part of the country. As soon as something 
new comes out, we try it. 
If it is worth putting in the 
catalog you will find it listed here. 
Culture of popcorn is about the same as field corn. 
Plant after frost danger is past; first part of May is about 
right. 
Put about three or four kernels to the hill and 
space the hills about 15 in. apart, with width of rows 2 or 
2% ft. apart, depending on how you are going to tend it. 
If you plant by the acre you will need 5 to 6 pounds per A. 
Be sure to try some of the new HYBRID SOUTH
