Cucumber 
One ounce to fifty hills. 
The Cucumber is a tender annual, and therefore should 
not be planted or set out in the open air until there is a 
prospect of continued warm and pleasant weather. Cucum¬ 
bers succeed in warm, moist, rich, loamy ground. The hills 
should be four or five feet apart in each direction. 
When all danger from insects is past, leave but three or 
four of the strongest plants in the hill.

quickly climbing poles or trellis, taking up less room in
