KITCHEN GARDEN 



thered ; if you gather in moist weather, let the 

 spawn lie a few days in a dry place before you cover 

 it. It sometimes happens that mushroom beds will 

 not begin to produce for three or four months, and 

 then will produce plentifully. When you pull an old 

 bed to pieces, save the spawn that is fresh to plant 

 BOW beds. 



CABBAGES. 



Sow early York, early Sugar Loaf, and early Bat- 

 tersea cabbage, for an early crop next year ; they 

 will be fit to plant out under cover at the latter end 

 of this month. Sow them in light, dry soil, and rake 

 them in. 



COLEWORTS. 



Early this month, plant cole worts that were sowr 

 in July, if any remain in seed beds ; plaut them two 

 feet apart and in light ground, in a warm situation, t© 

 stand the winter. 



CELERY, 



Earth up celery that has been planted out. Take 

 dry weather for this work, and earth the plants as 

 high as the hearts. 



CARDOOjYS. 



Tie up the leaves of cardoons with hay bands, and 

 lay earth round the stems, breaking the earth well, 

 gently beating it close to the stems, and smooth on 

 the outside, that the rain may run off. 



ENDIVE, 



Plant endive in a dr}^ warm sit nation, a foot or 

 fourteerl inches apart. Tie up what has heed planted 

 (if near its full growth) and earth up the plants as 

 directed for cardoons.
