CuLturE: For sets sow the seed as early as possible in 
the spring, very thickly in drills. As soon as the tops die 
off in summer, remove them to a dry, airy place, and early 
in the following spring replant by placing the sets in shal- 
low drills, 12 inches apart, and about 4 inches apart in the 
drills. The Onions obtained by that process are of a large 
size early in the season. May also be grown to full size 
during the first season by sowing thinly in drills 1 foot 
apart and about 14 inch deep in March or early in April, 
in strong land, well manured, and thinning them out to 
3 to 4 inches apart in drills.

MUSKMELON or CANTALOUPE 
One ounce plants 100 feet 
Cuxrture: Melons thrive in rich light soil. Plant in hills 
4 to 6 feet each way in early May, placing a forkful of old 
manure under each hill and 10 to 12 seeds in each one, 
thinning out to 3 plants to each hill when the plants are 
well established. Pinching off ends of vines when they are 
a foot long will increase production. For an early crop start 
seeds in small boxes in a hotbed.
