As recommended in Cabbage culture, the seed should be sown in February 

 or March in a hot bed, transplanting the plants when large enough into another 

 or the same frame, and gradually hardening them oS, preparatory to plantinn- 

 them out as early as the ground is in a fit condition. Any good garden soil, if 

 thoroughly cultivated and made very rich by manuring, will suit. Careful 

 attention in the matter of watering, destroying insects, and thorough cultiva- 

 tion, will be repaid.

CELERY. 



Although a few gardeners continue to cultivate this vegetable on the old 

 plan, the only one practiced years ago, its cultivation has undergone a great 

 reformation of late years. Very little of the seed is now sown in hot-beds, but 

 Instead is sown in a cold frame or even out in the open air, early in April, and 

 in June and July is transplanted where it is intended to mature. The young 

 plants, before transplanting, should be clipped down partially two or three 

 times to promote a stubby growth. On the ground, previouply thoroughly en- 

 riched and cultivated, 

 lay out lines 3 feet 

 apart, on the surface, 

 not in trenches, as 

 used to be planted. 

 Plant the plants in 

 these rows about 6 

 inches apart. Until 

 about the middle of 

 August the only work 

 to be done is frequent 

 ultivation and water- 

 ing in dry weather 

 Earthingup may then 

 begin, and continue 

 as long as the plants 

 grow, to bleach the 

 stems and render 

 them crisp.
