 Then the leaves should be" tied up so 

 as to exclude the light from the inner 

 leaves, which become bleached in the course of four to six weeks. A simpler 

 method of bleaching is to cover the plants, as they grow, with boards.

LEEK. 



German, ?audj. 



French, Poireau. 



LARGE AMERICAN FLAG LEEK. 



In our opinion, the 

 Leek does not receive 

 the attention it de- 

 serves. It is easily 

 cultivated, and is a val- 

 uable addition to the 

 vegetables g e n e r ally 

 used In soups, etc. Sow 

 early in spring, and 

 when about six inches 

 high transplant into 

 rows about ten inches 

 apart each way and as 

 deep as possible, to 

 perfect the blanching 

 process. The richer 

 the soil, the finer the 

 Leek will grow.

 drill.
