PARSLEY, 
Cultivation. — Sow any time between February and August, 
in a somewhat shady situation in drills one foot apart, and cover 
with fine mould to the depth of half an inch. It usually takes 
several weeks to germinate. In dry weather the seed should be 
frequently watered. Peroz. s d 
COOLING’S FAVOURITE, a very fine variety, 
ex({uisitely curled, and of a rich deep green 
colour, very ornamental, and stands a long 
time without running to seed. We claim 
that this is the finest type of double gar- 
nishing Parsley in cultivation, and highly 
recommend it 1 0 
BEAUTY OF THE PARTERRE. This variety 
is highly decorative ; its dark green foliage 
consists of innumerable quilled leaflets, 
which gives it a singularly charming 
appearance as an edging 1 0

PARSNIP. 
Cultivation. — The Parsnip luxuriates in deep rich soil, 
which should be subsoiled, and the manure applied should be 
thoroughly decomposed ; ground prepared in this manner will 
always produce long smooth roots. Sow in February in drills 
drawn eighteen inches apart, and cover with about half-an-inch 
of fine soil. When the young plants are about 2 to 3 inches 
high thin out to four inches. They are perfectly hardy, and 
should be dug up only as required. pg, q^. s d

Cultivation. — For early use sow in a sheltered border between February and March ; these will require protecting during
