EGG PLANT 



CULTURE. — Sow the seed in hot-beds early in March. When three inches 

 high pot the young plants, using small pots, and plunge them in the same bed so 

 that the plants will become stocky. They can be planted out from the pots when 

 the season becomes sufficiently warm in May or June, or they can be transplanted)' 

 into a second bed to make them strong until the weather is warm enough to trans- 

 plant about three feet apart each way in a thoroughly-worked and w-ell-enriehecr 

 soil. Draw the earth up to the stems when about a foot high. Egg Plant Seed will 

 not vegetate freely without a strong, uniform heat, and if the plants get the least 

 chilled in the early stages of growth they seldom recover. Therefore, repeatecr 

 sowing's are sometimes necessary. Care should be observed in cutting the fruit 

 so as not to disturb the roots of the plants. One ounce will produce about 

 1,000 plants.
