thin young plants to stand 10 inches apart. Allow 2 feet be- 
tween rows for easy cultivation. When planting in hills, put 
6 seeds in each. Place hills 2 feet apart each way, and thin the 
young plants, leaving 3 or 4 to a hill. For good pollination 
plant at least three rows side by side. Make successive sowings 
at two-week intervals.
