Sow the seed in a well prepared soil as soon as 

 the ground is in a proper condition to work. Sow 

 in drills and tread the seed firmly in; thin out to 

 an inch apart, and keep the ground well worked 

 and free from weeds. Make the soil very rich 

 with well-rotted manure, which should be dug in 

 deep; a moist, low, rich bottom land or well- 

 drained muck soil is preferable. Set the plants 

 eight or twelve inches apart. To blanch, draw 

 earth around the plants from time to time ; taking 

 care not to cover the tops of the centre"" shoots.

 this has deservedly attained great popularity, 

 and is now extensively planted. Under favor- 

 able conditions nearly every plant will make a 

 fine, solid head of good size. It is of dwarf
