French, Melon Muscade. German, Cantalupen. Spanish, Muscatel. 
Culture. One ounce will plant eighty hills ; two pounds will plant an acre. A light, rich soil is essentia] 
for this crop. Plant in hills six feet apart each 
way, using ten to twelve seeds in the hill. .After 
all danger of destruction by hugs is over, thin out 
to three plants to a hill ; when about one foot long, 
pinch off the lips to make them branch. This 
strengthens the growth of the vines, and makes 
the fruit mature earlier.
