planting the pumpkin seed in every 4th or 5th row. of 
corn one way by every 3rd or 4th row across, dropping 
4 seeds in a hill. When raised alone, the hills should be 
10 feet apart each way, dropping 6 or 7 seeds in a hill

the harrow. (One ounce of seed will make 15 hills, and

~ RADISH 
CULTURE. Radish should be grown on good rich sandy 
loam. Avoid seeding in soil where you have had any 
root crop that became infested with root maggot, if pos- 
sible. As a preventive of maggots it is well to treat your 
soil with a good dressing of tobacco dust, crude naphtha- 
hone flakes, or Carbola. Apply at intervals of about 10 
ays. 
Plant your radish seed one-half inch deep in rows 12 
to 14 inches apart as soon as the soil is in condition to 
work nicely in the spring. When the plants are about 
1 inch high, thin enough to avoid crowding. Cultivate 
often and shallow to retain moisture and destroy weeds.
