One pound will plant 100 hills, or about 250 feet of row. 



CULTURE — Seed is liable to rot if planted in cold ground. Yet if we hav&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 early sorts every two weeks 

 up to July 15 th.
