Sweet, Pot and Medicinal Herbs. 



CULTURE. — Herbs delight in a rich, mellow soil. Sow seeds early in spring 

 in shallow drills, 1 foot apart; when up a few inches thin out to proper distances, or 

 transplant. They should be cut on a dry day just before they come into full blossom, 

 tied in bunches and hung up or spread thinly on a floor where they can dry quickly.
