SQUASH 
CULTURE.—The Squash is one of the most nutritious 
and valuable of all garden vegetables. The summer va- 
rieties come for the table early in the season and are 
very profitable, while the winter sorts can be had in 
perfection from August until the summer varieties are 
in condition for use. Plant in hills, in the same manner 
and at the same time as cucumbers and melons, the bush 
kinds 3 to 4 feet apart, the running kind 6 to 9 feet apart.
