SQUASH 
For Summer and Winter Use 
Not safe to plant before May 15. Prepare and enrich soil 
as for cucumber, and plant seed in hills 3 to 4 feet apart 
each way if for summer varieties, and 6 to 8 feet for the 
later sorts. Plant eight to ten seeds in each hill, covering 
14 inch deep, and as soon as plants have set their rough 
alee and danger of bugs is past, thin to four plants per 
ill. 
Of the early varieties, 1 02. will sow 40 hills, and 10 hills 
of the later sorts; 4 to 6 lbs. for one acre.
