size, producing excellent fodder and an abundant crop 
of ears. Market price.

Salad and Pickling Cucumbers 
For early Cucumbers start in the hotbed about the middle of April upon pieces of heavy sod grass side down. When the 
weather will permit, remove to carefully prepared hills in the open ground and protect with boxes when the air is cold. 
For the main crop, as soon as the weather has become setiled and warm, prepare hills 4 feet apart, using a shovelful of 
warm, well-rotted manure to each hill; cover this 2 inches with fine earth, and plant 15 to 20 seeds Y% inch deep. Press 
down with the back of the hoe. When the plants begin to crowd and the danger from bugs is past, thin to four vines to 
the hill. Pick all Cucumbers when large enough; if left to ripen on the vines they will cease to be productive. For a 
succession, plant at intervals. For pickles, plant the middle of June until the middle of July. 
One ounce will plant 50 hills, 2 Ibs. for an acre.
