One ounce will plant 50 hills; two pounds will plant one acre. For early use, plant 
if the weather has become settled and warm, in hills 4 feet apart each way; thin out 
to four of the strongest plants to each hill, after all danger from insects is over. They 
succeed best in a warm, moist, rich, sandy loam, well manured.
