SWEET CORN 
_ Do not make the first sowing until the soil is warm and com- 
paratively dry—the middle of May is usually the earliest it is 
safe to sow Corn in this section. Plant every 2 weeks until early 
July. It can be grown in hills or in rows. Hills are placed 2 to 
3 feet apart each way, dropping about six seeds in each hill and, | 
when the plants are about 8 inches high, pulling out all but the 
three or four strongest. Rows are spaced 2!4 to 3/4 feet apart 
and the plants thinned to stand 12 to 15 inches apart in the rows. 
In planting, cover the seed about 2 inches deep. In order that the 
ears may develop perfectly they must receive plenty of pollen 
from near-by stalks; consequently, it is always best to plant 
Sweet Corn in several short rows, side by side, rather than in one | 
or two long rows. If you want to enjoy Sweet Corn far sweeter 
and richer than any you have ever been able to buy, grow it your- | 
self and pick it just before it is to be cooked. 
One pint of seed will plant about 150 hills or 300 feet of row; 
6 to 8 quarts will plant an acre
