Cultivation. — This excellent vegetable is of the greatest value during 
tho Winter and early Spring, when Cauliflowers are not obtainable and 
vegetables generally are scarce. They like a good rich firm soil, which has 
during the previous Autumn been thoroughly trenched and liberally 
manured. If possible, choose a piece of land on which Celery has been grown. 
Tbo earliest sowing of seed should be made at the latter end of March, 
and tho principal sowings during April, whilst May will be soon enough for 
the late varieties. Sow the seed either in a warm sheltered border or in u 
frarno, in drills eight or nine inches apart and ono inch deep. When the 
plants are large enough to handle, lose no time in pricking them out, as 
they quickly suffer if allowed to remain too long in tho seed bed, becoming 
drawn and weak. The final plantings should be commenced in May, and 
followed on as opportunity occurs until the end of July, and as land becomes 
available. Choose tbo strongest plants first, as by this means a much 
better succession will be obtained. 
The most important point in planting out Broccoli is to be quito sure 
that the ground is very firm ; the harder it is tho better it will be for the 
plants, as they will thereby be able to withstand tho Winter, therefore 
if the laud was trenched and manured during the past Winter, do not 
have it dug again just previous to planting out. Make the rows about 
feet a]wt and place the plants about two feet apart in the rows. 
Water tbo plants thoroughly after planting and keep the weeds down.
