AROMATIC, POT, AND SWEET HERBS. 



The generality of Aromatic, Pot, and Sweet Herbs may be raised from seed sown early 

 in spring. As only a small quantity of these are necessary for family use. they may occupy 

 a corner by themselves. They thrive best in a mellow, free soil; and enre should be exer- 

 cised to harvest them at the proper time. The greater part of the following-named Herbs 

 are perennial, and will multiply from the seed they drop, or from partings from the roots. 

 The ofl'sets, roots, or young plants, thus raised, should be planted at suitable distances from 

 each other. The beds should be kept free from weeds; and, as the herbs come into flower, 

 cut them on a dry day, and spread them in a shady place to dry for use. The best method 

 for preserving them is to rub them through a sieve when thoroughly dry, and pack thefu in 

 tin boxes. Put them in a dry place. Per pkt., 10; by the ounce on application.
