 Nasturtium or Indian Cress. INCLUDE POSTAGE. 



Four Ounces of Seed to lOO Yards of Row. 



Just before Corn-planting season sow in drills at .3 feet and thin out to 5 inches, or plant to trellis-work. The Dwarf 

 is the best, as it does not require sticks nor training. ,1. j v-i 



The flowers and young leaves are used as a salad. The seed-pods, with foot-stalks attached, are gathered while green 

 and tender and pickled as a substitute for Capers. . 1 ct t» 



We cannot say too much in praise of the Nasturtium as an ornamental plant. Far superior to the Sweet Tea, as it. 

 blooms earlier than the Sweet Pea, and months longer or till killed by frost. It is cultivated as easily as Corn.

Okra or Gumbo. 



Twelve Ounces of Seed to 100 Yards of Row. Twenty Pounds to the Acre. Sixty Days from Planting to Maturity. 



This vegetable is not half appreciated. We 

 give a recipe for its Winter preparation in connection 

 with Tomatoes. 



Take the Okra pods, half-grown, and slice them 

 into rings. Prepare the Tomatoes for stewing. Mix 

 all together and stew as under ordinary circumstances. 

 When done, seal up in air-tight jars and use for a 

 Stock for soup — nothing better. 



Plant the seed when the Apple is in bloom, in 

 hills or drills; if in hills, 2 feet apart and two or three 

 plants in each ; or in drills, 3 feet apart and 8 or 10 

 inches between the plants. The seeds are liable to 

 rot in the ground, and should be put in thickly to 

 secure the requisite quantity of plants. Very rich 

 ground is demanded by this vegetable. It is neces- 

 sary to make an earlier and later sowing to secure an 

 uninterrupted supply throughout the season. 



Landreths* Dwarf Stalked 

 Long Green Pod, 50 days. — 



Gumbo Soup made out of the Okra as an intro- 

 ductory dish for summer dinner is unexcelled in 

 delicacy, and at the same time most health-sus- 

 taining because of its mucilaginous character, be- 

 ing an offset to many other dishes not conducive 

 to comfort. The Landreths' Long Green Okra is 

 the best form of this delicious vegetable, being 

 the deepest green — a most desirable color. It is 

 cultivated as easily as Corn, producing three-inch 

 long pods in thirty days from date of planting.
