VEGETABLE MARROW. 
CULTURE.—The seed may he sown in a slight heat at the end oi March, and shifted from the pots about the middle of May, then select all open 
piece of ground and throw out holes from 2 to 3 feet square and 1 foot dee]), which should be at least 12 feet apart, the soil thrown out being used to raise 
the sides. A layer of dry leaves or litter should he spread over the bottom, and afterwards a sufficient quantity ol ordinary good soil, wherein a small 
portion of leaf soil and spent manure has been mixed, to refill it. The plants being hardened off, should receive at the time of planting a good wateiing, 
and he shaded and protected as long as necessary. Planted off in this manner they make firmer and shorter jointed growth, are more prolific, less 
water required, and not so liable to go off when in full hearing, as often happens under a more forcing treatment. They can also he grown with success 
outdoors by putting in a few seeds the first week in May, where they are to remain.
