CULTURE. Prepare hills 8 or 10 feet apart each way by working in 

 thoroughly rotted manure, or poultry droppings — rich ground gives the 

 plants a good start before insects attack them. When the ground is warm 

 plant 6 or 8 seeds to the hills, covering an inch deep and, when well up, 

 thin out, leaving three strong plants to each hill. Do not grow near 

 pumpkins and gourds. 



Four to Five Pounds to an Acre; One 

 Ounce for Thirty Hills.
