THE COTTAGE GARDENER. 
November 27. 
the month, if not done the last week in November. Beets (Red), dig 
up and store, b. Borecoles, full grown, may be taken up with good 
balls of earth, and planted in any nook or corner, or plot of ground of less 
value, in open weather. Brocolis, treat the same, but lay in deeper, so 
as to earth up the stems well; lay them in carefully, with their heads 
towards the north. Thus moving these vegetables gives an opportunity 
to prepare the quarters they occupied for other important crops ; they are 
thus better enabled to stand the severe weather that may be expected, 
and, being closer together, they are much more convenient for protection. 
Cabbages, plant; earth up. Cardoons, earth up. Carrots, store 
: the main crops if not done, and attend to those growing in frames, &c. 
1 Cauliflowers, attend to airing in all favourable weather those in 
1 frames or under hand-glasses ; remove all decayed leaves, and look after 
slugs. Celery, earth up, and protect when necessary.. Coleworts, 
plant. Composts, prepare and turn over. Cucumbers, attend to those 
; bearing; sow seed towards the end of the month for plants to plant out 
in the middle of January. Bung, prepare for hot-beds. Earthing-up, 
■ attend to. Endive, take up full grown on a dry day, and plant deep 
and close together at the foot of walls, or other warm dry corners conve¬ 
nient for protection in severe weather. Horse-Radish may be dealt 
i with in the same way as directed for the Jerusalem Artichoke. Hot-beds, 
! attend to. Jerusalem Artichokes, give a good top-covering of any 
rough mulching or garden-refuse, so as to keep out frost, and to enable 
t them to be taken up when required; yet it is well to have a few of the 
roots stored in case of snow, or other rough weather, at the very time 
they are wanted. Kidney Beans, force, e. Leaves, fallen, collect 
together. Lettuces, attend to those advancing in frames on a gentle 
heat; see that no drip falls into the hearts of the plants, and give all 
the air the weather will permit to such as are planted in frames for 
winter protection only. Liquorice, dig up. Mint, force. Mush- 
room-beds, make; attend to those in production. Parsnips, dig 
up and store, b. Peas, sow in the open ground of the best early 
kinds, protecting them from frost, mice, slugs, and birds. Plants, 
to produce seed, attend to, b. Potatoes may be planted in light soils 
in open weather, and in hot-beds towards the end of the month; examine 
often the in-door stores. Radishes and Small Salading, sow in 
frames, &c. Rhubarb, take up and pot off for forcing, or cover up with 
pots or tubs and fermenting materials. Sea-Kale, cover up with fer¬ 
menting materials ; fallen leaves are the best material both lor covering 
up the Sea-Kale and Rhubarb. Spinach, keep clear of weeds, and fallen 
and decayed leaves. Tansy, force. Tarragon, force. Trench, 
drain, &c., vacant ground. Weeding, attend to. Be on the alert of a 
frosty-looking evening, and Cover-up a little earlier. Turnips, any 
quantity, according to the demand, may be taken up and stored or 
packed-up tidy in a corner, to be buried in coal-ashcs, so as to be come- 
at-abie when required. We always make it a rule, at this season of the 
year, to store in little or much, according to the appearance of the wea¬ 
ther,—a dozen or two of Celery, and Endive, JBrocoli, or anything else 
that is likely to be required. T. Weaver.
