Be Sure to Plant Plenty of Watermelons—a Favorite of Everybody 


Soe Ee se cc er 
Berry’s Improved Kleckley Sweet 
Plant in hills about 8 feet apart each way. 

One 
V.G.B.P. will plant about 15 hills. The average fam- 
ily if space permits should plant twice that much. 
Don’t disturb the vines after they start to run. Don’t 
plant until ground is warm and cover only about 1 
inch. Because of long growing season required in 
northern states plant only early varieties.
