space to be occupied later by Egg-plant , Pepper , and Tomato . Similarly two rows 
of Onion sets may occupy the ground to be used later for growing Bee/S. Lettuce 
may be sown directly in the drill where the plants are to mature, or, it may be sown in a 
seed bed or shallow box and the seedlings transplanted to their permanent quarters when 
they are two or three inches high. Cabbage or Cauliflower Me best sown in seed-
