each way, put two shovels full of
some weak compost to each hill,
four quarts cOttonseed and one
good handful Of some high grade
fertilizer. Be sure to scatter it at
least four or five feet over the
hill to prevent it's burning. then
run four or five inch bull.tOngue
plow through it twice, then take
a Dixie plow and break the land
as deep as you can, and follow
with the bull.tongue in every
Dixie furrOw as deep as you can
to subsoil; when you get half
done mark your hills by running
across lightly, then finish break
ing your land with Dixie and
subsoiler. Land should have lot
OF grass or peavine to keep it
mellow. When you plant the
melons take hoe and level the
land about the hill and stick
three or four seed with sharp end
down one inch deep; when they
come up and need work, hoe
around lightly and always tend
7ery shallow, and don't leave but
one or two vines in the hill. and
be sure to never work when the
ground is wet or when the dew is
