CHERVIL. 
CERFEUIL (Fr.), KERBELKRAUT (Ger.). 
An aromatic plant used a good deal for seasoning, especially in 
oyster soup, and is often cut between Lettuce when served as a salad. 
In the North this vegetable is very little known, but in this section 
there is hardly a garden where it is not found. Sow broadcast during 
fall for winter and spring, and in January and February for summer 
use. 
COLLARDS. 
A kind of Cabbage which does not head, but the leaves are used the 
same as other Cabbage. Notso popular as in former years, and very 
little planted. 
CORN SALAD. 
Macur, Doucet (Fr.), ACKER SALaT (Ger.), VALERIANA (Sp.). 
Broad-leaved Corn Salad is the variety generally cultivated. It is 
usedas a salad during the winter and early spring months. Should 
be sown broad-cast during fall and winter, or in drills nine inches 
apart. 
CORN.—InpIAN. 
Mats (Fr.), WELSCHKORN (Ger.), Maz (Sp.). 
Extra Harty Dwarr Suaar. GOLDEN DENT GOURD SEED. 
ApDAm’s Extra EARLY. ! KARLY YELLOW CANADA. 
Eariy SUGAR OR SWEET. | LARGE WHITE FLINT. 
STOWEL’S EVERGREEN SUGAR. Buunvtv’s PRouLiric FIELD. (New.) 
Plant in hills about.three feet apart, drop four to five seeds and 
thin out to two or three. Where the ground is strong the Adam’s Ex- 
tra Early and Crosby’s Sugar can be planted in hills twoanda half feet 
apart, as these two varieties are more dwarfish than the other vari- 
eties. Plant for a succession from February till June. 
Extra Early or Crosby’s Dwarf Sugar. This isa very carly 
variety and of excellent quality. Ears small, but very tender. It is 
not so extensively planted as it deserves to be. | 
Adam’s Extra Early, the most popular variety with market 
gardeners for first planting, It has no fine table qualities, but as it 
grows to a good size, and is matured in about forty days from time of 
planting, it mects with ready sale in the market, and for these reasons 
gardeners prefer it. 
Early Sugar or New Engiand. A long eight-rowed variety, 
which succeeds the Extra Early kinds. Desirable variety. 
Stowel’s Evergreen Sugar. This is the best of all Sugar 
Corn. It is not an early Corn, but the ears are of large size, and are 
well filled. It remains green longer than any other variety, and is ' 
quite productive. The cultivation of this excellent cereal, as well as 
all other Sugar Corn, is much neglected, yet why people will plant com- 
mon field-corn for table use, considering size instead of quality, I can- 
not understand.
