Although the Melon is a tropical vegetable, most easily and successfully grown in warm latitudes, in colder climates it produces very fine and luscious fruits if care- fully cultivated. MTJSK-MEI,ON. One ounce will plant about eighty hills ; two pounds will seed an acre.—Seed retains its vitality for from five to eight years. CULTURE.—A rich, deep, sandy loam, well worked, and highly manured with old, rotten compost, is of the first importance. Plant when all danger of frost is over, in hills five or six feet apart each way, a dozen seeds to a hill, and after the plants are out of danger from bugs, thin them to three or four in a hill. When they have four or five rough leaves, pinch off the ends of the main shoots, which will cause the lateral branches to put forth sooner; this will strengthen the growth of the vines, and the fruit will come earlier to maturity.
