  Culture. 
  For 
  earliest 
  Cauliflower, 
  raise 
  plants 
  by 
  sowing 
  

   in 
  hotbed 
  or 
  greenhouse 
  during 
  January 
  or 
  February, 
  and 
  

   transplant 
  to 
  flats 
  or 
  cold 
  frames, 
  2 
  or 
  3 
  inches 
  apart 
  each 
  

   way. 
  Set 
  in 
  open 
  ground 
  as 
  soon 
  in 
  spring 
  as 
  the 
  land 
  can 
  

   be 
  put 
  in 
  good 
  order. 
  Soil 
  to 
  be 
  a 
  warm, 
  very 
  rich, 
  fibrous 
  

   loam, 
  well 
  supplied 
  with 
  humus 
  and 
  mioisture. 
  Copious 
  

   water 
  application 
  during 
  dry 
  weather, 
  especially 
  when 
  

   the 
  plants 
  are 
  heading, 
  and 
  light 
  dressing 
  of 
  nitrate 
  of 
  

   soda 
  and 
  potash 
  are 
  of 
  much 
  help. 
  Set 
  plants 
  2 
  to 
  2% 
  feet 
  

   apart 
  each 
  way. 
  For 
  late 
  Cauliflower 
  to 
  mature 
  during; 
  the 
  

   pickling 
  season 
  (August 
  15th 
  to 
  October 
  10th) 
  start 
  plants 
  in 
  

   open 
  ground 
  like 
  late 
  cabbages, 
  and 
  handle 
  them 
  like 
  that 
  

   crop. 
  After 
  the 
  heads 
  begin 
  to 
  form, 
  draw 
  leaves 
  over 
  and 
  

   pin 
  or 
  tie 
  them 
  together 
  to 
  protect 
  the 
  head 
  from 
  the 
  sun.

  "Let

  you 
  on 
  your

  CU1.TURE. 
  Carrots 
  do 
  best 
  in 
  warm, 
  deep, 
  rather 
  light 
  and 
  fairly 
  fertile 
  soil 
  that 
  is 
  well 
  supplied 
  with 
  humus, 
  or 
  on 
  strong 
  loam, 
  

   having 
  been 
  in 
  clover 
  and 
  broken 
  the 
  year 
  before. 
  For 
  earliest 
  crop, 
  sow 
  seed 
  of 
  the 
  early, 
  short-rooted 
  sorts 
  in 
  April 
  or 
  May, 
  in 
  drills 
  

   a 
  foot 
  apart 
  and 
  thin 
  to 
  2 
  inches. 
  For 
  main 
  crop, 
  sow 
  in 
  May 
  or 
  June, 
  or 
  for 
  succession 
  even 
  in 
  July, 
  using 
  the 
  long 
  rooted 
  varieties. 
  

   The 
  rows 
  for 
  these 
  may 
  be 
  16 
  to 
  20 
  inches 
  apart, 
  and 
  the 
  plants 
  thinned 
  to 
  2, 
  3 
  or 
  even 
  4 
  inches. 
  To 
  raise 
  Carrots 
  for 
  stock, 
  the 
  rows 
  

   may 
  be 
  made 
  wide 
  apart, 
  say 
  2 
  to 
  2| 
  feet 
  to 
  allow 
  of 
  cultivation 
  by 
  horse 
  power. 
  In 
  sowing 
  Carrot 
  or 
  other 
  small 
  seeds, 
  especially 
  during 
  

   dry 
  weather, 
  pains 
  should 
  be 
  taken 
  to 
  firm 
  the 
  soil 
  well 
  over 
  the 
  seed, 
  either 
  by 
  means 
  of 
  the 
  feet 
  or 
  with 
  the 
  roller 
  of 
  the 
  garden 
  drill.
