Table Queen Squash 
TOBACCO 
Culture. The seed is sown from February to April in 
open beds. Ground must be clean, very finely pulverized, 
raked fine and smooth. It is customary to burn over the 
top of the bed by piling brush or litter to destroy weed 
seeds and add fertility for the young plants. After sowing, 
beds are protected with thin cotton cloth, similar to cheese- 
cloth, to protect them from Tobacco flies. About June 1st 
the plants are set in rich or highly fertilized ground in 
rows 4 feet apart each way. An ounce sows about 50 
square yards, sufficient to set 2 or 3 acres. 
FERMATE: Spray with Fermate to control blue mold 
in seed beds. Circular on request. See page 60.

SQUASH 
Summer Squash, 1 oz. to 30 hills. Winter Squash, 1 oz. to 15 hills; 3 to 4 lbs. per acre.

Giant Summer 
Straightneck Squash 
Used entirely for 
Rutabagas require longer to mature than the common Turnips and should be sown 
earlier. To get heavy crops of large Turnips sow the seed June 15 to July 1, in rows 
2 to 2% feet apart. Thin the plants to a foot apart. Rutabagas make excellent 
winter feed for sheep. For table use, Rutabagas can be sown later and will be of 
better quality, but not as large as when sown early.
