Fresh from Easy to 
the Vine Me clos Grow 
Culture—It is easy to raise Melons. All that is required is a good, well-manured soil that 
is not too heavy, and a warm, sunny location. Commercial fertilizer or sheep manure mixed 
with the soil will do. Seed is planted in late May 1 inch deep in hills 5-6 feet apart. When 
plants are 6 inches high, trim out to the 4 strongest plants to the hill. Keep well watered 
during the Summer. Cultivate until vines cover the ground and pinch off the ends of the 
vines. Earlier plantings can be made with the use of Hotcaps. 1 pkt. will sow about 10 hills.
