CFL.Tl'RE.— Sow the seed in hot beds carlj- 

 In March. When three inches high, pot the young- 

 plants, using small pots, and plunge them in the 

 same bed, so that the plants may become stock}'. 

 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 transplant, about three feet apart each way, in thoroughly worked 

 and well enriched soil, liraw 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 earlier stages of growth, they seldom recover. Therefore repeated sowings 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 one thousand plants.) 



BAI.TI7IORE EGG HI.AXT.— When once used, takes tbe lead. 



THIS is decidedly the best and most profitable Egg Plant in cultiva- 

 tion. It is large, thornless, of beautiful shape and handsome purple 

 color. We have never seen finer specimens of Egg Plant than 

 those grown from our seed. When inspecting the field of Egg 

 Plants growing for seed we were surprised at the regular size and uni- 

 form, handsome color oE the fruit all over the field.

IS ONE OF THE BEST SALADS FOR FALL AND WINTER USE. 

 (One ounce of seed to one hundred and fifty feet of row.) 



FOR early use, sow as soon as the ground can be worked in the spring, 

 in drills fifteen inches apart, and thin plants to six or eight inches 

 in the row. To blanch the leaves, gather them carefully together 

 when perfectly dry, and tie with matting or soft fibrous material. 

 Another method is to invert flower pots over the plant. The leaves are 

 verf highly esteemed for use as salads.
