a EINE er 
For the Southern States. 
Cucumbers; it is best to start them in two or three inch pots, and when 
they have two rough leaves, transplant them to their place; two good 
plants are sufficient under every sash. 
DECEMBER. 
Not a great deal is planted during this month, as the ground is 
generally occupied by the growing crops. . 
Plant Peas for a general crop; some Potatoes may be risked, but 
it is uncertain whether they will succeed or not. 
Sow Spinach, Roquette, Radish, Carrots, Lettuce, Endive and Cab- 
bage. | 
Early varieties of Cauliflower can be sown in a frame or sheltered 
situation, to be transplanted in February into the open ground. Early 
Cabbages, such as York, Oxheart and Winningstadt, may be sown. 
To those who wish to force Tomatoes, I will say that this is the 
month to sow them. The best kind for that purpose is the Extra Early 
Dwarf Red. Itis really a good acquisition; it is very dwarfish, very 
productive, and of good size, and bears the fruit in clusters.
