CRESS. 
The Cultivation of Cress. —Sow Plain Cress once a week all the Summer in shallow boxes, filled up about three parts of the way with nice rich soil; when 
this is pressed down and watered, sow the seed an hour afterwards rather thickly over it, and merely press it into the soil. Cover with a double sheet of paper from 
9 to 4 p. m. during the Summer, and sprinkle every evening. When the young seedlings reach an inch above the level of the op of the box they may be cut off 
with a sharp knife, and washed before being sent to table. American Cress should be sown the end of August to stand the Winter. Watercress may be successfully 
grown from seed, if sown in a shady border, and well watered. (See also Carters’ Practical Gardener, price is ., post free is . 3d .)

perfect form of Curled Endive yet introduced; for salads it will be

bleaches admirably, and is far superior in fineness of fimbriation to ordinary Curled 
Endives.
