PARSLEY 
CULTURE_Sow in Feb¬ 
ruary, March or early in 
April half an inch deep, in 
rows a foot apart, pressing 
the soil after sowing. Slow 
to germinate, sometimes 
two or three weeks in com¬ 
ing up. Germination may 
be hastened by soaking 24 
to 36 hours before sowing, 
or by covering the rows 
with boards to retain the 
moisture. A few radish 
seed should be sown in the 
row with parsley to mark 
the row and allow early 
cultivation. The radishes 
can be pulled early and will 
not interfere with the pars¬ 
ley. If dried crisp and 
rubbed to powder it may be 
bottled for use later. An 
ounce plants 100 feet.
