Plant most European plants. Collect grasses of all 

 kinds as they ripen. Sow tomatoes, carrots, turnips, 

 beets, cabbage, lettuce, marrowfat peas, French beans, 

 and generally all the seeds of the European garden. 

 For forage, sow barley, oats, lucerne, rape, buck- 

 wheat, broom, barn millets. Plant aloes, cabbage 

 slips, and onions for seed. Sow radish and other 

 kinds of salad in very rich land, to be watered in dry 

 weather. Sow mangel-wurtzel. 



Remarks. — AH the sweet potato slips should be 

 planted this month ; the onion beds manured and 

 dug; the ground for gar.den seed be made ready, 

 and good seed should be sown in seasonable weather. 

 The ground for onion seed should be manured at 

 least one month before the seed is sown, and dug 

 twice. Carrots should be sown this month, if pos- 

 sible, as they thrive well in warm weather. 



Arrowroot. — "Weed for the last time. 



Sweet potatoes. — Plant slips all the month; cut 

 the slips from the old stem, as they are stronger and 

 will give a better crop. 



Irish Potatoes. — Plant all the Bermuda seed yon 

 can get ; rather closer than in January ; cut all that 

 are long enough ; don't plant the very small ones.
