2. The Curled. 4. The Indian. 



THE three firfl: forts, if defired very early, may be 

 fown upon a moderate hot-bed, in fpring they 

 may be fown upon beds well expofed to the fun, where 

 they are to be cut when young, obferving to fow them 

 in drills, and to fow the curled and broad-leaved forts at 

 a greater diftance than you do the common, that their 

 leaves may ftand at a diftance from each other, for the 

 better prefervation of the plants. You may fow Creffes 

 in the common ground in Augiijly for winter failading, 

 where they will (land in mild winters. 



The Indian Crefs may be planted in April, in holes at 

 eighteen inches diftance, hole from hole : their fiov/ers 

 are ufed in fallads, and their feeds, when gathered young, 

 make an excellent pickle. 



DILL. 



DILL is propagated by feeds fown in March, upon 

 beds of light earth. If they are too thick, hoe 

 them to ten inches a-part ; keep them clear from 

 weeds, and in dry weather, water them. Thefe plants 

 are very fit for perfons who pickle quantities of Cucum- 

 bers, as they give a fine relifli to thefe pickles, and fe- 

 veral other things.
