Plant as soon as the Tveatlier becomes settled, in hills, four feet apart each 

 way, with eiffht or ten seeds in each hill, cover half an inch deep, smoothing v 

 the hill off with the hoe. Keep the soil well stirred, and when the plants are i 

 out of danger of insects leave three or four plants to the hill. For pickles, ? 

 plant from the first of June to the first of August. The fruit should be gath- 

 ered when large enough, whether required for use or not, as, if left to ripen 

 on the vines, it destroys their jiroductive uses.
