WHEN TO PLANT SWEET CORN
Seed Should Not Be Sown Until
Ground Is Warm and No
Danger From Frost.
Sweet corn should he planted on rich
land and cultivated the same as field
corn. Plant the seed as soon as the
soil is warm in the spring, and make
successive plantings every two or three
weeks until late summer. The same
results can be obtained to some extent
by planting early, medium and late
varieties. I'lunt the seeds abo&t two
inches deep in drills three feet apart
and thin to a single stalk every 10 to
14 inches.
Sweet corn, when grown in the
South, pusses so quickly from the milk
to the dough stage that care should
he exercised to gather the crop just at
the right time. In order to secure the
most satisfactory results. The flavor
of sweet corn depends upon its stage
' Corn in the Home Garden
of maturity and the method of han
dling tfte product from the plant to
the table. Sweet corn loses Its sugar
content very rapidly after being re
moved from the stalk. It shoutd,
therefore, be picked only a few hours,
and preferably a few minutes, tn ad
vance of. the time when It la to be

THE NOTH CAROLINA HILLS
Oh, the North Carolina hills,
How majestic and how grand, V
With their summits bavhed in -glory
Like our Prince Immanuers'jiland,
Is it any wonder then, . . kt -
That my heart with rapture thri'.U
As I stand once more with loved ones
On those North Carolina hills? r
CHORUS. '
Oh, the hills! beautiful hills, :
How I love the North Carolina hills 1
If o'er sea, or1 land I roam still I think
of happy home,
And friends among the North Caro
lina hills.
Oh the North Carolina hills!
When my girlhood's hours were pass
ed; Where I often wander lonely,
And the future tired to cast,
Many are our visions bright,
Which the future ne'er fulfills;
But how sunny were my day dreams, "
On those North Carolina hills.
Oh the North Carolina hills!
How unchanged they seem to stand
with their summits pointed skyward,
To the Great Almighty's land;
Many changes I can see,
Which my heart with sadness fills,
But no change can be noticed in those
North Carolina hills.
Oh, the North Carolina hills!
I must bid you now adieu, in my home
beyond the mountains I shall ever
dream of you,
In the evening time of life.
If my fatheer only wills, I shall still
behold the vision o f those North
Carolina hills. 1
