CUCUMBERS 
Are sensitive to frost, and cannot be planted until the last of April. They require a great deal of water, and unless planted on very wet 
soil, will require frequent irrigation throughout the summer. Plant in hills four feet each way, and leave two or three plants to each hill. 
The soil should be made very rich with well-rotted stable manure, well spaded in. 
Cucumbers are very easy to grow, and a few hills will produce an abundance for an average family.
