 favorable conditions. A deep, rich, loamy soil is 

 required. For winter use a few plants placed in*a 

 box in the cellar will give a supply.

Sow as early in the spring as the 

 weather will permit, in drills fifteen 

 inches apart and half an inch deep

 dug. Cultivate similar to carrots, 

 and thin out to six inches apart. To 

 keep well in the ground over winter, 

 draw a little earth over the tops.
