A &C, 60 Days Cucumber 
CUCUMBER 
One ounce of seed will plant 50 hills; 
2 pounds, an acre 
Curtture. For very early Cucumbers, 
sow the first of April in a hotbed, upon 
pieces of sod or in small pots, so that they 
can be readily transplanted to the open 
ground (in rich soil) when danger of frost is 
over. For general crop, plant, if the weather 
has become settled and warm, in hills about 
4 feet apart each way; thin out to 4 of the 
strongest plants to each hill. They succeed 
best in a warm, moist, rich, loamy soil. For 
succession sow until the middle of August. 
About 60 days.

healthy, robust and resistant to disease, 
producing white-spined Cucumbers about 
10 inches Jong. Has met with universal
