216 PUMPKINS. 



They are used more extensively for pies. Grocers 

 usually lay in a large stock of the Cheese Pumpkin 

 in the Fall, to supply their customers with Country 

 Pumpkins during the Winter. 



They may be grown on waste land when manured 

 in the hill (for they are rank feeders), planted eight 

 feet apart each way any time in May. They are 

 generally planted among Corn. The Cheese Pump- 

 kin is the best for this purpose.
