One ounce of seed will produce about 1000 plants. 

 CULTURE — Sow seed in flats under glass in March; transplant seedlings, when 2 to 3 inches high, into other flats, 4 inches apart 

 each way or into individual pots, either clay or paper, to encourage good root systems. When the weather has become thoroughly settled 

 and danger from belated freezes is over (about corn planting time), transplant to open ground in warm, very rich and well-prepared soil, 

 placing rows 3 feet apart, with plants 2 feet apart in the rows. The large, sweet sorts have become very popular and are always in demand.
