CUCU MBE R.—Gutken. 
One Ounce to Fifty Hills. Two Pounds to the Acre. 
Culture of Cucumber.—For very early cucumbers, sow the first of April in a hot-bed, upon pieces of 
sod (grass-side down), so that they can be readily transplanted to the open ground, in rich soil, when danger 
of frost is over, or protect by hand-glasses. For early use, plant if the weather has become settled and warm in 
hills about 4 feet apart each way; thin out to 4 of thestrongest plants to each hill after all danger from insects 
is over; they succeed best in a warm, moist, rich, loamy soil; continue planting at intervals for a succession. 
The cucumbers should be gathered when large enough for use, whether required or not; if left to ripen, it 
destroys their productiveness. For pickles, plant from June until the middle of July.
