CUCUMBER 
CULTURE, Plant in hills 6 feet apart each way. 10 to 20 
seeds may be planted in each hill, covering a circle 15 
inches in diameter. When plants are three or four inches 
high they may be thinned to 5 or 6 to a hill, allowing for 
culworms and beetles destroying one or two. Cultivate 
frequently until the vines cover the ground. The seed 
may also be started in berry boxes by placing them in a 
hotbed. When the weather is suitable—settled and warm 
plant out. The fruit should be gathered as soon as large 
enough for use, or else the productiveness of the vines will 
be permanently injured. One ounce of seed is required for 
60 hilis; two to three pounds per acre.
