(CALABAZA TOTANERA) 
Pumpkins are not so particular as to soil as melons or cucumbers, but in other respects 
are cultivated the same, though on a large scale. They are generally raised between hills of 
corn, but may be planted with success in fields by themselves. The Pumpkin more properlj 
belongs to the farm than the garden, especially as it really mixes with and injures the finer 
squash. Pumpkins are splendid feed for sheep when pasture begins to fail in the fall. One 
ounce of seed will plant 20 hills ; three pounds will plant one acre.
