CUCUMBERS 
CULTURE—-Flourish best in ? rich, warm, sandy loam. Sow when danger of 
frost is over, in hills 4 to 5 feet each way. As the young plant has many enemies, 
sow thickly y 2 inch deep, and thin out finally to 3 or 4 plants to the hill. For 
pickles, plant during June or July. Use a packet of seed to 15 hills; an ounce to 
75 hills, 2 to 3 pounds to the acre. Ready to use in 50 to 80 days. Gather cucum¬ 
bers by cutting, not tearing. Leave none to ripen on the vines if you want a full 
crop.
