Pumpkins are frequently planted in connection with 
a crop of field corn, and if you grow corn you may 
just as well grow pumpkins. They will grow best in 
soil kept moist by the dry farming method, as too 
much moisture will kill them. Plant the seed in open 
ground, after the danger of frost is over, in hills 8 
feet apart each way, drop from 8 to 10 seeds per hill 
and when the plants are about 5 inches high and 
danger of insect pests is past, thin to 3 or 4 of the 
healthiest plants. If irrigation is needed, run the 
water in ditches about 18 inches from the hill. Do 
not plant near squashes or melons as they are likely 
to mix. About 3 pounds of seed will plant one acre.
