Culture.— In this latitude it is useless to plant in the open ground 
until nearly the first of June. Make rich hills of well-rotted manure, 
two feet in diameter, and plant a dozen or more seeds, covering half 
an inch deep. When all danger from insects is over, pull all but 
three or four of the strongest plants. The middle of June is early 
enough to plant for pickling. Make the hills about six feet apart. 
For early cucumbers the hot-bed is necessary, but the simplest and 
surest way to produce a tolerably early crop of the best kind is, 
where it is designed to place a hill, dig a hole about eighteen inches 
deep and three feet across ; into this put a barrow of fresh manure, 
and cover with a small, box-like frame, on the top of which place a 
couple of lights of glass. When the plants grow 
keep the earth drawn up to the stems. Water 
and give air.
