green-house, or any forcing-house, in boxes, pyra- 

 mids, or in the borders. See January on this sub- 

 ject. 



Of sowing Radish and Lettuce. 



Short-top raddish, and the queen or turnip-rooted 

 kinds may be sown on the border, close in front of 

 a pinery or other stove ; and if the winter be not 

 very severe, they may have a chance of coming to 

 perfection. If not, the trouble is little, and the 

 expence next to nothing. 



A little brown Dutch and green coss lettuce 

 might be sown at the same time along with the 

 raddish, which might also have a chance of succeed- 

 ing. See January on this head. 



Of trenching, or ridging up vacant Ground. 

 Now trench, dig over roughly, or ridge up all 

 vacant pieces of ground, according as they may re- 

 quire, in order that the weather may meliorate 

 them, by acting on the surface; which, for this 

 purpose, should be enlarged as much as possible, 

 by being left quite rough.
