There is great satisfaction in raising one's own pumpkins (or 

 pies. This is Sugar or New England Pie. 





PARSNIP 



RADISH 



Parsnips grow best in a loose, rich sandy loam, but will make good 

 roots in any soil that is reasonably rich and deep. Stony soil and raw 

 manure are likely to produce branched or misshapen roots. The seed 

 requires steady, abundant moisture for germination and should be sown 

 as early as practicable. Sow in rows 2 to 23^ feet apart and when well 

 up, thin to about 5 inches apart in the row. Keep the ground moist if 

 possible. Parsnips are improved by freezing, and a portion of the crop 

 can be left in the ground all winter to be used as a spring vegetable 

 when the ground has thawed.

PUMPKIN 



Pumpkins are typically American, and pumpkin pie is one of our truly 

 American dishes. They are less sensitive to unfavorable conditions of 

 soil and weather than melons or cucumbers, but they are cultivated in 

 about the same way.

The ground for growing radishes should be finely prepared and as free 

 as possible of small stones and lumps. Plant seed about J^ inch deep 

 in rows 12 to 18 inches apart, and when up about an inch thin to 1 or 

 2 inches apart. Radishes are at their best when growth is quick and 

 steady. A moderate temperature and constant moisture are favorable 

 for best results. Most varieties become pithy soon after reaching full 

 size. In order to keep a continuous supply, successive plantings should 

 be made.
