The kinds used for early crops are likewise best for this 
purpose. Sow salading every ten days; also carrots and 
onions for drawing young. In the beginning of the month, 
sow endive for an early crop. In the first week, sow car- 
doons and turnips for succession ;\ and, in the third week, 
for a full autumn crop. Sow scarlet and white runners for 
a late crop; and, in the middle of the month, early: cab- 
bages,.to be used as coleworts. 
Plant full crops of broccoli, Brussels sprouts, savoys, 
German greens, and leeks; ridge out early celery, and suc- 
eessional crops of cabbage and cauliflower. In the first 
fortnight of the month, put out cucumber plants, in a warm 
border, placing hand-glasses over them; these will afford 
small cucumbers for pickling. Draw and store winter 
onions. 
Fruit Trees——Attend particularly to the training’ and 
pruning of the summer shoots of all descriptions of wall 
and trellis trees. Standards do not require this, except 
those that are trained en pyramide or en quénouille, Mulch 
and water fruit-trees and strawberries in dry weather, de- 
sisting from watering as soon as the fruit begins to ‘ripen. 
Net over cherry-trees, to protect the fruit from birds. De- 
stroy insects by frequent washings and directing tobacco- 
smoke against them, or by strewing snuff (the fine powder 
of tobaceo) over them. In the first week, plant out love: 
apples in vacant spaces along the bottom of a south wall: 
“Forcing.—Proceed with planting melons and cucumbers
