I ( j Cucumbers j) 
CULTURE—A light warm soil is preferable but 
they will grow in almost any soil if there is 
good drainage. When all danger of frost is past 
sow the seed about |/ 2 -inch deep in hills 4 feet 
apart each way. Earlier crops may be had by start¬ 
ing the plants in a hotbed and tranplantlng about 
three or four of the young plants to a hill or by 
using Hotkaps. Keep the soil well fertilized and well 
cultivated between the plants until the vines cover 
it. Keeping them picked before they reach full size 
will cause the plants to bear longer.
