BRUSSELS SPROUTS. 
The Cultivation of Brussels Sprouts.— Sow the seed early in March for first crop, and again late in April for succession ; transplant in summer into 
good ground made thoroughly firm, when Ihe plants are large enough to handle, and keep stirred with the hoe through the dry weather. The sprouts are fit for 
gathering after they have been under the influence of a hard frost, which makes them tender eating. (See Carters’ Practical Gardener, price is.; post free, is. 3d.)

A very fine strain, the result of many years careful selection.

growers.

“ I enclose cheque for £50. The few pounds of Holborn Exhibition Brussels 
Sprouts have proved every word you have said about them, they are large, solid, a*d 
a splendid colour. I have seven acres, and have been picking this last ten woske 
and shall keep on right up to March next ; the Sprouts average about 800 psales 
per acre. I am well pleased with them, for they are the best I ever grew.”—
