SOME SECRETS OF SWEET
CORN
Quality Is What Counts.
p. 4. EDWARDS.

Nearly every one plants sweet corn
OF some kind In the garden. When
we refer to il, however. we mean
quality" sweet corn. that delectable.
melting feast OF sweetness which the
average gardener gets from his hill
only two or three times a season.
But TO have a continuous supply OF
the best corn In the best condition one
must know just how to arrange for II,
when to pick II and how to cook It.
Now there are two methods OF raising
It, either by repeated paintings at in
tervals OF one or two weeks or by
planting several varieties at one time,
selected to mature I'm succession as a
supply for several weeks may be had
from a single planting. so that only
two paintings will be required. Each
plan has its good points. Where space
is limited successive planting will. OF
course. be preferable, and the matter
Of variety as governing quality is also
important.
New Varieties.
or the several different kinds the
following varieties have been tried with
success: Golden Rod, Golden Bantam
Hiawatha. Pocahontus, Early Cham
pion, Crosbys Early, the Henderson
Country Gentleman and Stowell's Ev
ergreen. The Golden Rod is cross
between Stowell's Evergreen and Gold
en- Bantam and is happy combina
ton of blending the good qualities OF
both. IL is one OF the "midseason" va.
rieties. Henderson's Rocahontas Is an
extra early variety, and. while not
equal TO some OF the later kinds, 1t Is
well worth a place in the garden. Sew.
eral other familiar arieties-namely
the Golden Bantam and Country Gen
tleman, also have that deservcdly not
ed sweet tlavor OF the Golden Rod and
Hiawatha.
The land for corn should be thor
oughly manured, or lacking manure
use a liberal amount Of market garden
brand OF commercial fertilizer or q
mixture known as 4-S-l1-that is. 4
per cent nitrogen. per cent phosphor
&c acid and IL per cent potash In ad

manure in the bottom of each hill
with a little earth spread over It, 1:

and at the second hoeing work hand

about the hills. Plant the corn in
drills. dropping the seed about nine
inches apart and run the rows east
and west If possible. but do not hill

plants, corn feeds near the surface
