LETTUCE. 
Seed for the first outdoor crop is usually sown in hotbeds in February, and the seedlings trans- 
planted to the garden in April, 8 to 12 inches apart, in rows 12 inches apart. For a succession until 
frost, sow in drills in the open ground at intervals of every two or three weeks, and thin the plants 
to stand 6 to 8 inches apart. For plants to force in hotbeds from November until spring, sow seed 
in hotbeds in the fall, and cover up as winter approaches, until the plants are required for use. Or the 
seed may be sown in hotbeds early in winter and the seedlings transplanted when large enough into fine 
and well-prepared garden soil. One-fourth oz. to 100 feet of drill; 2 pounds to the acre.

MUSKMELON. 
Muskmelon seed should not be planted outdoors until the ground has become warm and dry. The 
hills should be about 6 feet apart, and carefully prepared. Rich earth is far better for the young 
plants than manure; but if the latter must be used see that it is well rotted. Plant from six to twelve 
seeds in a hill, and when the young seedlings are strong enough to resist the attacks of insects, thin 
them, leaving three of the strongest in each hill. One oz. to 50 hills: 1 to 2 pours ners ate
