the pumpkin seed in every 4th or 5th row of corn one way

seed will make 15 hills. 2 pounds are needed for an acre.

Gould’s Early Scarlet Globe Short Top Radish 
RADISH 
CULTURE. Radish should be grown on good rich sandy 
loam. Avoid seeding in soil where you have had any root 
crop that became infested with root maggot if possible. As 
a preventive of maggots it is well to treat your soil with a 
good dressing of tobacco dust or crude naphthalene flakes. 
Apply at intervals of about 10 days. Plant your radish seed 
one-half inch deep in rows 12 to 14 inches apart as soon as 
the soil is in condition to work nicely in the spring. When 
the plants are about 1 inch high, thin enough to avoid crowad- 
ing. Cultivate often to retain moisture and destroy weeds.
