KOHL-RABI. 
One ounce will sow a drill of about 200 feet. 
Kohl-Rabi, or Turnip-stemmed Cabbage, is a vegetable 
that is not so much cultivated as it deserves to be. The 
stem above the ground swe'ls into a bulb somewhat re- 
sembling a Turnip; this again is crowned with leaves. 
The edible part is the bulb, which is dressed and served 
like Turnips, and is very delicate and tender when young. 
It is very hardy, withstands severe drought, andis a good 
keeper. Cultivate the same as for Cabbage, but in hoe- 
ing be careful not to throw’ earth into the heart of the 
plant or the bulb cannot form.

LARGE AMERICAN FLAG LEEK. 
LEEK. 
One ounce will sow-a drill of about roo feet. 
Leeks require a very rich, mellow soil, and a liberal 
dressing of well-composted manure. Sow the seed in 
April in rows a foot apart, and transplant in July. Land 
that has borne an early crop of Peas, Cabbages, etc.. may 
thus be made use of for a second crop; but additional 
manure should be applied before setting out the Leeks. 
They should be set quite deep, and in rows 15 inches 
apart, with 6 inches betweenthe plants. Care must be 
used to avoid having the young plants overgrown by 
weeds. Later in the season, draw earth up around the 
plants to blanch them.
