The three great “Articles, Beans, Peafe, and | 
‘French Beans may yet be planted ; ‘and it’ will be 
always advifeable to put fome of each Kind now 
‘into the Ground. They will require more Water- 
ings than thofe planted” earlier; but with this 
Care; careful Weedings, and often breaking the 
Mould between them, they will come in for Ufe 
at 2 very agreeable Time, and will be good - in 
bs Kinds.

what we have told him of digging between grow- 
ing Plants; that it not only fupplies Nourifhment 
in a very happy Manner, but makes the Crop | 
| better than any Way elfe able to bear dry Sea- 
fons. Such. are to be now expected, ‘and there 
45 all the Reafon imaginable to prefer this to any 
abet Method in the prefent late Plantation. 
‘Weeding and Watering are effential now, and 
muft be continued from time to time with Care 
over the whole Ground. The young Crops will 
require moft of the former Attention, and the 
older of the latter; but neither muft be neglected 
in regard of one or of the other. | 
If Weeds be fuffered to grow up among the 
young Plants, they will ftarve and deftroy them. 
They will always out-grow the Plantation, be- 
caufe they are the natural Produce of the Ground. 
In the larger and = ‘more eftablifh’d- Crops they 
‘will do lefs Harm, but ftill-a great deal : if they 
cannot deftroy they will ‘impoverifh them; and 
dry Weather joining its Force, the Crop will come 
to little. The Bloffoms which by this Time are 
ready to appear, will fall off without Fruit. 
If the Ground have been manag’d as we di- 
rected, the Crop of Weeds, tho” plentiful, will be 
but young :. they will be beft pulled up by

they alfo quickly run up too rank for Uk. 
oe will be time now to plant out the Cabbage 
| and Savoys for Winter Service ; and this may 
with due Care be done upon Parts of the Ground 
cleared from other Crops.

them in the Summer Months. All Weeds mutt 
be kept out, and from time to time the Mould 
mutt be drawn up about their Stems in good Wea-
