For the Southern States. 
Towards the end of the month the Black Spanish Radish can be 
sown; also, Swiss Chard. 
Sow Mustard and Cress; the former will generally do well. All 
kinds of Turnips and Ruta Bagas should be sown; also, Kohlrabi. 
The seed of all kinds of Beets should be put in the ground. 
Towards the end of the month Carrots can be sown; but the sowing 
of all vegetables at this time of the year depends much upon the sea- 
son. If we should have hot and dry weather, it is useless to do much, 
as seed cannot come up without being watered. White Solid Celery 
should be sown for a succession, and the Dwarf kinds for spring use. 
Shallots ean be set out during this month ; also Onion Sets, especially 
if they are raised from Creole seed. The early part of the month is the 
proper time to plant Red and White Kidney Beans, for shelling and 
drying for winter use. 
Early Rose and other varieties of Potatoes should be planted early 
this month for a winter crop, and the latest of Tomato plants should be 
set out, if not done last month. If Celery plants are set out during this 
month they require to be shaded. 
SEPTEMBER. 
Most of the seeds recommended for last month can be sown this 
month, and some more added. 
In the early part Bush Beans ean be planted, as they will bear be- 
fore frost comes. Plant Extra Early and early varieties of Peas. Sow 
Radishes. of all kinds, Carruts, Beets, Parsnip, Salsify, Roquette, Cher- 
vil, Parsley, Sorrel, Cress, Lettuce, Endive, Leek, Turnips, Kohlrabi. 
Broccoli, Karly Cauliflower, Kale, Celery, Corn Salad and Mustard. 
After the 15th of this month Creole Onion seed can be sown. This is 
an important crop, and should not be neglected. Ifit is very dry, 
cover the bed, after the seed has been sown, with green moss; it will 
keep the ground moist, and the seed will come up more regularly. 
The moss has to be taken off as the young plants make their appear- 
ance. . 
Celery plants may be set out in ditches prepared for that purpose. 
Caulifiower and Cabbage plants can be transplanted if the weather is 
favorable. 
If the weather is not too hot and dry, Spinach should be sown; but it 
is useless to do so if the weather is not suitable. 
Cabbage can be sown, but itis much better to sowin August and 
transplant during this month. 
Set out Shallots. Sorrel should be divided and replanted. 
Sow Turnip-rooted Celery. 
OCTOBER. 
Artichokes should be dressed, the suckers or sprouts taken off, and 
new plantings made. 
Onion seed ean still be sown; but it is better to get the seed into the 
ground as soon as possible, so the plants get to be some size before the 
cold weather comes. 
Towards the end of the month, Black Eye Marrowfat Peas can be 
planted ; also English or Windsor Beans.
