Cucumbers should not be planted until all danger of frost is over and the ground is warm, because like all vine crops the seed is liable to rot unless proper conditions prevail. Cucumbers should be grown in every garden, for slicing for the table and small fruits for pickling. In most sections two plantings can be made. First, as early as the weather permits, second, the latter part of July or first of August. The early planting will produce cucumbers for table use and the late planting will give the best supply of young fruits for pickling purposes. Sow 6 to 10 seed in hills 4 to 6 feet apart. After all danger of pests are removed and you are sure of your plan
