 What a November for an English 

 man to see ! My white turnips have 

 grown almost the whole of their 

 growth in this month. The Swedish, 

 planted late, grow surprisingly now, 

 and have a luxuriancy of appear 

 ance exceeding any thing of the kind 



" I ever saw. We have fine, loaved 

 lettuces ; endive, young onions, 

 young radishes, cauliflowers with 

 heads five inches over. The rye 

 fields grow beautifully. They have 

 been food for cattle for a month, or 

 six weeks, past.
