CUCUMBER. 
The Cucumber is a tender annual, and therefore should not be planted 
or set out in the open air until there is a prospect of continued warm and 
pleasant weather : as, when planted early, not only are the seeds liable 
to decay in the ground, but the young plants are frequently cut by frosts. 
Extreme wet or dry soil should equally be avoided. Cucumbers succeed 
best in warm, moist, rich, loamy ground. The hills should be four or five 
feet a part in each direction. Plant twelve or fifteen seeds in each, cover 
half an inch deep, and press the earth smoothly with the back of the hoe. 
When all danger from bugs or worms is past, leave but three or four of 
the strongest plants in a hill. We do not advise planting in the open 
ground till the latter part of May. From a pound to a pound and-a-half 
of seed to the acre is sufficient.
