One pound will plant about 100 hills, or 150 to 350 feet of row. 

 CULTURE — Seed is liable to rot if planted in cold ground. Yet if we have 

 an early warm spell in spring, it may pay to take some risk, as often the plants, 

 when once up, escape injury by frost. About middle of May plant in hills 3 feet 

 apart each way, covering about 8 or 10 seeds half an inch and thin out to three 

 plants to a hill, or plant in rows 3 feet apart, and thin out plants to stand 12 inches 

 apart in the rows. For succession plant earlj' sorts every two weeks up to July 15th.
