432 THE KITCHEN GARDEN. [July. 
quentlj repeated till they are newly rooted and in a free growing 
state. The laying of a fresh cabbage leaf over each plant when 
set, will afford protection from the sun for a few days, which will 
be of considerable service. Some seed of the green curled bore- 
cole may now be sown for a late crop. 
Transplanting and Sowing Endive. 
Plant out, to supply the table early in autumn, a sufficient quan- 
tity of the best and stoutest endivej it requires a good, strong, and 
(at this season) moist ground; if well dunged, it will be an addi- 
tional advantage. Put in the plants a foot asunder every way, and 
water them immediately, which repeat every evening till the plants 
have taken root. 
Sow endive seed in an open, cool, and moist situation, two or 
three times this month, for the greater certainty of procuring a re- 
gular supply; let it be of the curled kind, and sown tolerably thin, 
for when the plants grow too close in the seed-beds, they are more 
subject to start soon to seed than if they had been raised at mode- 
rate distances. Give occasional waterings to the seed-beds both 
before and after the plants appear, which will greatly encourage 
their free growth. 
Kidney-Beans. 
You may plant kidney-beans of the dwarf kinds any time this 
month; or, in order to have a regular succession, some may be 
planted in the beginning, middle, and end thereof. The running 
kinds will also succeed well if planted in the early part of the 
month. It will, however, be necessary at this time to water the 
drills, or lay the beans to soak in river or pond water about five or 
six hours previous to planting, or if both be done, it will be still 
better. 
Cauliflowers. 
The late sown cauliflowers intended for winter use may now be 
planted out finally if not done before. 
In planting this crop, it would be of essential advantage to take 
opportunity of showery or moist weather if such should happen in 
proper time; plant them in rows two feet and a half asunder, and 
the same distance in the row; let them be directly watered, and 
afterwards at times, till they have taken good root. 
Small Sallading. 
Continue to sow crops of small sallading every eight or ten days, 
as directed in the former months; but these must now be sown on 
shady borders, or else be shaded with mats, occasionally, from the 
mid-day sun, and frequently watered both before and after the 
plants appear above ground.
