RUE, or HERB GEACE. (Mu'ta grave' o- 

 lens.) Thrives best in a poor, clayey 

 loam, mixed with calcareous rubbish, in 

 an open situation. It is propagated by 

 slips and cuttings as well as from seeds, 

 the first two modes being usually prac- 

 tised as being the most easy. It may be 

 planted or sown at any time during the 

 spring. The seed in drills six inches 

 apart, and a quarter of an inch deep. The 

 rooted slips, or cuttings, may be planted 

 on a poor, shady border, and watered 

 occasionally until taken root. In the 

 autumn the plants may be removed. 

 During their after-growth they must be 

 kept pruned in a shrubby form, and never 

 be allowed to produce seed.
