GROW POP CORN FOR ki0DIEs
Dad, let little Willie and Susie
have some pop corn rows, if you can
spare the space. That'll encourage
them to help in the garden, and it'll
please them next winter Of evenings.
There are several varieties Of pop
corn. Many prefer the colored kinds
for home use and these usually
please the children more than the
standard commercial varieties The
ears of the Little Tom Thumb and
the popped kernels of the Eight-Row-
ed varieties are popular for Christ
mas tree decorations. gr E:r
Plant the pop corn early so it will
have a long season to grow and ma
ture. If harvested in an immature
condition it will not give as t1aky II
crisp pop corn balls as can ibe made
from fully ripened corn
