VEGETABLE GAEDENING 93 



properly constructed, good crops can be grown, 

 even where ordinary methods fail. 



Plants may be set in rows, eighteen inches 

 apart, beginning nine inches from the side, thus 

 planting four rows on a bed six feet wide. In 

 rows, twelve inches apart. 



A bed six by twenty-four feet will require 

 ninety-six plants. Better order 125. 



When plants arrive they should be planted with- 

 out delay. This is important. 



The estimated yield here given is very conserva- 

 tive. The author has been able to grow more than 

 double this quantity.
