WATERMELON 
CULTURE. In general the culture for Watermelons is the same as for Cantaloupes. Make 
furrows about 8 feet apart. Plant 5 to 6 seeds about 1% inches deep on each hill every 
8 or 10 feet. When the plants are established with two or three leaves, thin out leaving 
two of the most healthy ones. Requires 114 to 2 pounds of seed to an acre.
