CUCUMBERS 
fe to_Plant—Do not sow outdoors until the 
weather has become settled and warm, during June. 
Soil Preparation—Cucumbers prefer a rich porous 
soil and we suggest digging in a generous shovelful 
of well rotted manure when preparing each hill. 
Planting—Sow in hills (7 to 8 seeds to each hill) 
spaced about 4 ft. apart in each direction. Cover with 
not more than ¥% in. of soil. When the plants are 
2 or 3 in. high thin to leave only 3 or 4 plants to
