The TraBical Kitchen Gardiner, 



fo that there hardly ever remains any part 

 or fpace of our garden void ; and nature 

 now affeds no better divertifement thaa 

 to be amazing us with miracles of fcrtilty, 

 fo well affifted as flie is by the fun, that 

 father of light ; only now and then the 

 auxiliary refrefhment of convenient moif- 

 ture is wanted ; that moifture which the 

 propitious clouds fometimes abundantly 

 pour down, tho' fometimes too the in« 

 duftrious gardincr is oblig'd to fupply their 

 deficiency in time of need. 



Now the cold beds and counter borders^ 

 Icveird and adjufted fo even to a line, and 

 fo well furnifh'd with cabbage lettuces, 

 what pleafure do they not afford to thofe 

 that behold them? That forefl: of arti- 

 chokes of different colours, which appear 

 in a feled and particular place, how much 

 do they call upon us to come and admire 

 them! and more efpecially to judge of 

 their goodnefs and delicacy. 



In this month continue the planting 

 out fellery and leeks in trenches, to 

 whiten againfl winter, for the ufe of the 

 cook in foups ; of which the London gar- 

 diners make much money. Replant alfo 

 your beet-chards, to be ready againft/f^- 

 gujt.
