One ounce of seed for 1009 to 1500 plants. 
Culture.—Sow seed in flats under glass in March; prick out in other flats when 2 or 3 inches high, 2 inches apart each way, and 
when the weather has become thoroughly settled in spring and danger from belated freezes is over, transplant to open ground in 
warm, very rich and well-prepared soil, making the rows 2 to 3 feet apart, with plants 15 to 18 ‘inches apart in the rows. The 
large, sweet sorts have become very popular and in large demand. ‘The crop is, therefore, usually quite profitable, especially if
