A small space in the garden may be used to good advantage for the cultivation of a few 
of the most useful and desirable herbs. Their cultivation is very simple, but little care being 
needed beyond keeping down the weeds. Sow in April or May in drills twelve to fifteen 
inches apart, and thin out the young plants where they stand too thick.

KOHLRABI — (K ohlrabi) 
This is practically a turnip growing above ground. Sown early and thinly the bulbs are edible from 
the time they are two inches in diameter. By thinning: and using, those that remain keep growing 
larger but they will finally get woody and worthless. It is not commonly known that the raw vegetable 
tastes like a mild radish.

LETTUCE —(Lattich Salat ) 
While lettuce may be had at the grocer’s the year around, the garden still produces better than can 
be bought and its care and culture are so simple that the children can run that part of the garden. The 
worst pest is the Root Aphis and this is easily controlled with a sowing of Tobacco Dust in the furrow 
under the seed. An occasional watering with Nitrate of Soda will greatly aid lettuce to large size. 
Loose leaf sorts may be gathered when large enough—heading kinds should be transplanted or thinned 
to six Inches apart and the less these are watered the better, to prevent rotting in the heart. Certain 
kinds are intended for inside; outdoors these are apt to be tough and bitter.
