KITCHEN GARDEK. 



PARSLEY 



May be sown in rows nine inches apart, or on tte 

 edges of beds and borders; tread in the seed and rake 

 the ground. 



SMALL SALADim. 



Sow radishes, rape, mustard, cresses, 4^c. ence a 

 week in drills three inches asunder, cover them lightly 

 with fine earth, and wash off any hoar frosts that seize 

 the plants, with your watering pot ; this must be done 

 in the morning before the sun comes on them. If 

 cakes of earth obstruct them when they are appear- 

 ing, whisk it off with a slight broom. 



CX)RIANDER AND CHERVIL. 



Sow those seeds separately, in drills nine inches 

 asunder, cover them half an inch deep with earth, and 

 keep them clear of weeds. 



CELERY. 



This is a better time than last month to sow celery 

 for planting out in J^uly. Sow it on rich light earth, 

 cover it a quarter of an inch deep, and water it in 

 dry weather. There are three kinds ; turnip rooted, 

 hollow stalk, and solid stalk. The roots of the former 

 swell like a turnip; when it is planted out, it must be 

 done on level ground ; the other kinds must be planted 

 in trenches. Sow a crop early, and a crop late this 

 month, for succession. 



PEAS. 



Sow peas at different times this month, to have suc- 

 cessive crops ; this is a good time to sow marrow-fats, 

 green Prussian, dwarf prolifics, and dwarf blue impe- 

 rial ; sow the large kinds in rows five feet asunder, and 

 two inches deep. In dry weather, earth up the peag 

 that are above ground, arid stick those that are six 

 inches high, unless they are dwarf kinds.
