To Dry Corn (Remove the husks score down)

Remove the husks, score down the centre of each row of grains, then press out the pulp, leaving every particle of hull fast to the cob. Spread this pulp on tin sheets or in ordinary baking pans; dry in the hot sun or in a very moderate oven, watching carefully and stirring occasionally that the corn may not lose its color. If the oven is just right three hours should dry it. As soon as it is thoroughly dry take from the oven, and when cold put it into bags and hang in a cool, dry place.
