Seed may be planted either in rows or hills. If in rows, they should be 2)4 to 4 feet apart depending 
on the height of the variety and the seed planted at the rate of 5 or 6 toa foot and covered about 2 
inches. When plants are 4 or 5 inches tall, thin from 8 to 12 inches apart and keep well hoed until 
the ears are set. If in hills plant 5 or 6 seeds per hi!l and space the hills 3 feet apart each way.

sweet corn trade. Remains in good market condition much longer than the 
old tvpe Bantam and very much superior in quality. In trials conducted by 
the Connecticut Agriculture Experiment Station this corn produced the 
remarkable vield of 14,000 marketable ears per acre. Ears are considerably
