MUSKMELON 



CTII.T-nM.— One ounce of seed to 50 hills. Sow about 

 the last uf spring or the first of summer in hills ot 

 light rich, sandv soil, four feet apart, allowing but 

 three plants to g^ow in each hill; after they have grown 

 about a foot long, pinch ofE the points of shoots, which 

 causes the vines not only to become stronger, DUt 

 makes them produce lateral branches and 

 prove more productive and mature earlier. 

 It should not be grown near squashes, cu- 

 cumbers or pumpkins, as tlie flavor will be 

 affected in eonsequenco.
