One ounce will produce about two thousand plants. : 
CULTURE. —Sow the last of March or early in April, in an open border, in rich, mellow ground, in shallow drills, watering 
freely in dry weather. By rolling or pressing in the seed the result will be more satisfactory than when covered. Cut the tops off 
once or twice before planting out, to make them siocky. When the plants are 5 to 6 inches high, transplant the dwarf varieties 3 
feet and the taller sorts 4 feet between the rows; plant 6 inches apart in the rows. Cultivate well, and when large enough blanch 
by earthing up.
