THE VEGETABLE GAKDEN. 



The past season was satisfactory for most of the varieties of Vegetables. Beets, 

 Carrots, Celery, Onions, Pease, Beans and Parsnips were exceptionally good ; while 

 Cabbage, Cauliflowers and Tomatoes did fairly well. Marrows, Squash, Pumpkins and 

 things of this nature set a very light crop, but some very fair sized fruit was produced. 



Asparagus. 



On account of the dry weather early in the season, the crop of Asparagus was very 

 light till rains came in June.
