This vegetable is one of the most important of all garden prod' 
ucts. They thrive best in a warm, light, rich soil. For early 
plants, sow about the first week in March in a hotbed, or in boxes 
or pots in a warm window. When the plants are about two inches 
high, set four inches apart in boxes three inches deep, or pot 
singly. If again transplanted before setting out, the plants will be 
still more stocky. Set out in the open ground about the first 
of June, four feet apart each way, using a shovelful of rotted ma¬ 
nure in each hill.
