One ance will sow 20 to 30 hills; 3 to 4 
pounds, an acre 
This is a popular vegetable for summer and 
winter use, and being susceptible to cold it 
should not be planted until the ground is 
thoroughly warm. The bush sorts should be 
planted in hills 4 to 5 feet apart each way; 
the running varieties, 8 to 12 feet apart. Place 
8 to 10 seeds in a hill, and when the third 
stage of leaves is set, thin out to about 4 
plants in a hill.
