PARSLEY, 
CULTURE. — Should the weather be dry, sow early in February; if not, defer till middle of March. Sow again in May, and also July, for 
furnishing plants to stand over Winter. Parsley seed is rather longer than most seeds in germinating, and should be watered in dry weather if necessary. 
The secret of having it good all the year is to sow in good soil, 16 inches from plant to plant.

PARSNIP, 
CULTURE. — Sow about the second week in February, or first in March, or as early as the ground is in a fit state to receive the seed, choosing a 
light deep-trenched soil if possible ; and if required for exhibition, make a hole 3 feet deep with a crowbar, push this round so that the hole 
is largest at the top, fill with fine soil, and finish off with dibbling in three seeds. After germinating leave the strongest seedling, assist them when 
in full growth, make four holes a foot deep in the soil and about 5 inches away from the plant, which can be occasionally filled up with liquid manure. 
They should be allowed to remain in the ground as long as the weather permits, and when lifted should be carefully placed in sand.
