One ounce will sow 125 feet of row

Rhubarb, also known as Pie Plant, is the earliest 
spring vegetable and is grown for its leaf stalks 
which are extensively used for pies and sauce. 
Culture: Rhubarb succeeds best in deep, somewhat re- 
tentive soil and the richer this is and the deeper it is stirred, 
the better. Sow in drills an inch deep and thin out the plants 
to 6 inches apart. In the fall transplant, setting them 3 feet 
apart each way and give a dressing of coarse manure every 
spring. Stalks should not be plucked until the second year. 
When a blossom appears, it should be cut back well into the 
ground and the plant never allowed to exhaust itself by 
running to seed.
