Solving Cabbage-Seed. ^ 



You may now fow cabbage-feed ; the plants from this 

 fowing will produce iine young heads in October, Novem- 

 ber, and December. 



Plant Pot-herbs i and other ArG7na.tic Plants. 



Plant out from the feed-bed, the young thyme, favory, 

 fweet- marjoram, and hyffop. 



The plants will be ready to remove about the third or 

 fourth week in the month ; but let it done, if poffible, 

 in a fhowery time. Prepare fome beds for that purpofe, 

 three feet and a half-broad ; rake the furface fmooth, and 

 then. put in the plants. 



Plant them by line ; fetting them fix or eight inches 

 afunder every way, and water them, 



Thefe herbs arc fometimes planted in edgings, along 

 that of a bed or border: which is often praiflifed in private 

 gardens. 



But when this is intended, you may, i.f you pieafe,

 gelica, and cardans, and all other pot and phyfical herbs 

 that were fown in the fpring or laft autumn. 



Flant them a foot or fifteen inches diftance every way. 

 But the borage fucceeds bell without tranfplanting: 

 only obferving to thin the plants to about a foot dilfaVice 

 every way ; and the marigolds inay alfo -be treated in the 

 ilime manner ; but thefe will fucceed well enough cither 

 way. 



Plant, where wanted, flips of fage ; take the young 

 flioots of'the year, and they will take root tolerably well, 

 any time in this month ; plant them in a ihady border. 



The-flips or cuttings of thyme, favory,- and hyffop, may 

 alfo ftill be planted where required. 



Likewife plant, where required,- flips, or- cuttings- of 

 lavender, and lavender-cotton, rue, rofemiary, and the 

 like kinds of plants. ' . ' 



L'et the above Hips or cuttings be planted in a fhady 



fituation ; and, in dry weather, let them bv now and then
