ENDIVE. 
The Cultivation of Endive. —Sow for early crops in middle of May, and for 
succession to beginning of August ; transplant trom the seed-bed into warm 
situations, and give protection to the late crops required for Spring use. 
Carters’ Model. —(See illustration. ) — The most beautiful and 
perfect form of Curled Endive yet introduced ; for salads it will be found 
particularly valuable. It is exceedingly ornamental, of a distinct colour, bleaches 
admirably, and is far superior in fineness of fimbriation to ordinary Curled Endives. 
In sealed packets, Is. and Is. 6 d. per packet. 
Carters’ Oval Leaved- 
-The plain leaved Endives are preferred 
by some connoisseurs, and we recommend this fine selection as of the highest type- 
Its leaves are delicate in texture, very tender, and palatable. 
In sealed packets, price Is. and Is. 6 d. per packet.

KOHL RABI, or KNOL KHOL. 
These highly-bred strains of Kohl Rabi represent a plant that is 
largely -sed on some parts of the Continent as a vegetable. In this 
country, however, they have never seemed to take the public fancy, and 
yet they make a most delicious dish, and are of the greatest service in 
hot summers when turnips are hardly fit to eat. Throughout Austria 
and some other Eastern Countries, they are a standing dish, and their 
curious nutty flavour imparts a pleasant zest. The seed is sown in 
spring, and the edible portion—which is really a globular swelling in 
the stem just above the ground—is fit for use towards the end of 
summer. 
We were awarded a Special First-Class Certificate at the Vegetable 
Conference of the Royal Horticultural Society for our select garden stocks of 
this plant, and these varieties were used as the representative types by a 
customer in his Gold Medal Collection of Vegetables, &c., at the Royal 
Horticultural Society’s Meeting.

“These Kohl Rabi are far better than Turnips, which are often stringy in the hot 
weather.”—H. W.
