Two weeks after fertilizing a feld,
it is usually safe to plant either the
seed or the plants. If the SEED is
planted. about 10 to IL seed should be
dropped in a hill. When the plants
begin to run, the hill should be re-
duced to from two to four plants.
Some of the missing hills may be
supplied by lifting part of a full
@hill on hoe and setting 1T to piaca.
If Plants are set out, remove the POTS
and set the bali of earth that was in
the rot an ich below the surface Of
the ground.
cuItivatins.
Whether the seed is planted in the
field or plants from a cold frame set
out, the land must be in best OF filth.
If warm, dry weather follows the
time of planting, the hrst blowing
may be delayed ten days, but by this
time the cultiEator should be used on
each side OF the row. and week
after this blowing the rows should lie
crossed. This blowing is not so much
&c kill out the young weds as to get
air into the soil and to give the sun
a chance to warm it up. II rains oc-
cur soon after planting. no time
should be lost in loosening the soil.
This will help to let off the surplus
water, besides achieving the same OBJ
ject stated before. viz. aerate and
warm the soil These hard rains Of
winter and spring that occur in the
lower south are 4 greater drawback
in vegetable growing than they seem
to the majority OF those in that bust
Eess.
1t is not necessary to cultivate the
middles oftener than twice a month,
Just often enough to keep the land
in good condition. AS the vines grow
out from the hills, as centers. the
''middles" VIII decrease in width until
finally the hills meet. and blowing
must be suspended. In case a wire

lie formed, and the hill to grow com

as this Ioosens its hold and gives tho
wind a chance to mutilate it. II the
hill is kept compact by heading in all
runners. the vines will cling to one
another and obvfate the danger from
being blown about.
Picking and Packing.
Cukes are ripe" when the blossom
end has filed out well. 1t is best to
let them get as large as possible
without letting the seed harden. As
soon as the shell around the seed be-
gins to harden. they are. no longer
saleable: this can be learned by test
ing few. Do not leave any on the
vines too long. A ripening cucumber
saps the vitality out of vine to a
1enarka BILE degree. Always remove
culls and worr1y ones Immediately.
The ordinary vegetable crate is used
for shipping They should be picked
while dry, taken to the packins

laid in quickly and evenly: pressed
down with a lever, and the crate
nailed. Be careful they are not
bruised and not too loose to shake
III the crate in transit. It is necessary
to pick field three times week
The amount that an acre will Fro

have not raised a full crop. AS high
