EGG PLANT 
*4 oz. to 100 ft., % lb. per acre. 
The seed germinates rather slowly, and it is well to start under 
glass, with moderately high temperature, in March. When all 
danger of frost is over, and the plants are strong, they should be 
transplanted carefully to the garden or field. Egg plant does not 
do as well where cool nights prevail, as in places where nights are 
warm. It needs a warm climate to insure quick and uninterrupted 
growth. One ounce, 1000 to 2000 plants.

garden. Plants spreading, spineless, bearing 4 to 8 glossy black-
