BROCCOLI. 
The Gultiuation of Broccoli — For the earliest crop a sowing is requisite the beginning of March, and a little protection may be necessary for the seed-beds. 
Successional sowings should follow from March to June. Prick out into a prepared bed when strong enough, and when thoroughly established in summer transplant 
to permanent quarters, the earliest kinds first, to produce a constant supply of heads, until Cauliflowers are ready in July the following season. The soil should be well 
manured, and in good tilth and firm before transplanting. 
SEPTEMBER TO DECEMBER. 
Carters’ Autumn Broccoli • — This is the earliest 
white close-headed variety we know of. Its fine heads will come into use
