Some Things about ('0rRs

There are two kin DIS Of
S0rns, vegetable and animal.
Vegetable corn grows in rows;
animal Corns grow on toes.
Vegetable corn is known as
field corn and animal C0rns
as the kind you feel. Veg
etable corn IL sometimes called
sweet corn3 animal C0rns are
never sweet, bur are very BIT
ter. You will know this If
you have ever felt one bite.
Vegetable corn grows on ears,
but animal C0rns grow on
feet. They are often caused
BY tight shoes. So, when 4
man is tight people say that
he is corned.
"A farmer said that he raised
one hundred bushels Of corn
on an acre, but that he had one
corn which was the biggest
acher he had on his farm.
There are other kinds Of corn
