Swiss Chard, Dark Green Curled 

Summer Squash is a good source of vitamin C and a fair source of vitamin A. 
Winter Squash contributes an excellent supply of vitamin A. 

There are two distinct types, the Summer or bush type and Winter or vine type. 
Both types are easy to grow, if they are planted in warm well-drained soil that has been liberally manured 
or fertilized. 
Time to Plant—Sow the seeds of Summer Squash from May | to July | and Winter Squash from May | 
to June |. 
Soil Preparation—Prepare the hills by spading in two or three shovelfulls of well-rotted manure to each, 
hill. If this is not available, work in about a handful of commercial fertilizer to each hill. 
Planting—lIt is best to sow from 6 to 8 seeds in each hill about 14 inch deep. When these are well up, 
thin out leaving only 2 or 3 of the strongest plants to grow in each hill. For Summer Squash allow about 4 feet 
each way between the hills and 7 feet each way for Winter varieties. 
I ounce Summer Squash will plant about 50 hills 
1 ounce Winter Squash will plant about 15 hills
