for family use and for one or two hogs be-
sides. From the same ground he got 200
pumpkins and beans for the whole year
From a bed of six yards square he usually
got sixty bushels of onions, and with the
amount bought his flour. The rest of the
ground was appropriated to potatoes, beets,
parsnips, cabbage, green corn, peas, beans,
cucumbers, MELONS, squashes, DC, with fif-
tv or sixty bushels of beets and carrots for
the winter food of COW. Then he had al
so a flower garden; gooseberry, raspberry,
and current bushes, and few choice apple,
pear, plumb, cherry, peach and ounce trees.
Now, if an acre can be made to produce so
much in Maine-almost enough for all the
supplies of one family-why may
not the same thing be done elsewhere!
