GARDENING CALENDAR FOR NOVEMBER.

THE KITCHEN GARDEN. 
Sore peas and beans in sheltered, dry, and 
warm situations. 
Plant and transplant cabbages, cauli- 
flowers, lettuces, potatoes, and shallots. 
General Directions. — Drain, dig, dung, 
trench, and ridge the ground as required. 
Such crops as brocoli, and anything likely to 
surfer from the severity of the weather, must 
be sheltered. Finish taking up the various 
roots, and have them properly stored. 
Artichokes (Globe). — Mulch close about 
them with long litter from the stable, and 
dig in a good portion of decomposed manure. 
Artichokes (Jerusalem) should be care- 
fully taken up, and laid on a cool floor, as 
potatoes ; they must be clean gathered up, 
else they become troublesome as weeds. 
Asparagus. — Top dress the beds with rich 
manure, of which good hotbed dung is per- 
haps the best form. 
Beans. — Plant a crop of the Mazagan 
during the second week ; draw the drills 
shallow, and leave the soil after covering 
them in a ridge form. 
Beet. — Dig up carefully, that is, do not 
bruise the roots at any part so as to occasion 
bleeding ; shake the soil off the roots, but 
do not use the knife much ; it is better to 
wrench off the tops. 
Brocoli. — Secure the early sorts from frost : 
48. 
the heads keep well when cut low and placed 
in a cellar or cool close shed. 
Cabbage. — A few of the best plants may 
be planted out in a good situation, not other- 
wise ; they are sometimes much hurt by 
frost. 
Carrots. — If the weather is mild, thin out, 
and hoe the autumn sowing. See to the 
storing away of those dug up. Have the 
ground for the spring sowing well manured 
and trenched ; the dung must be decomposed, 
and the soil deep and fine. 
Endive. — It is well to lift all the roots that 
are likely to be of use soon, and put them in 
frames, or cover them with dry soil in a shed 
or cellar ; but it must be done when they are 
free from wet. 
Caulijioivers.— In mild seasons, the late 
plantings will still be in use ; cut all that 
are nearly ready, and bring them in under 
glass ; those ready for use may be kept for 
any moderate length of time, if cut very 
low, and packed either amongst charcoal, or, 
if in a dark place, without it. 
Parsnips. — Lose no time in taking up the 
roots, as they are apt to be injured by re- 
maining in the soil ; the autumn sowing 
should °be partially thinned, and well hoed 
when dry. 
Parsley has proved serviceable in severe 
weather when kept in frames ; and provision 
should be made for that purpose if required. 
Peas. — Sow such as the Racehorse or 
Early frame in a warm border, or by the side 
of the south wall. 
Potatoes.— Plant as early as possible, and
