For general crops, the seed cannot be planted in the open ground before the weather "has become warm and settled and tne ground mellow and light. Plant the seeds in well enriched hills about 4 feet apart each way, and as soon as all danger from insects is over, thin the plants to leave 4 of the strongest in each hill. For succession, sow at intervals of every two weeks until midsummer. Extra early crops may be grown by planting the seeds in hotbeds in April, upon pieces of sod turned upside down and removing them to hills in the open ground as soon as the weather is warm enough. For pickles, sow seed from the middle of .June until the middle of July. The vines bear longer if the fruitsXre gathered as soon as they are large enough; their strength is soon exhausted by ripening fruits.
