BRoccott, ‘ 
We also grew three samples of broccoli, under the names Cabbage, ; 
Carter’s Summer, and Karly Purple Cape. A portion of all of these 3 
formed fair-sized heads. The broccoli closely resembles the cauliflower, 
the chief difference being that it is more hardy, and is rather less — 
delicate in flavor. 4 
KALE. 
We also grew a few plants each of twenty-five so-called varieties of | 
kale, or borecole. ‘I'he seeds of nineteen of these were obtained 
directly from Paris. A few of these had beautifully cut and varie-- 
gated foliage, which made them very attractive, particularly toward 
the latter part of the season. 
LETTUCE. 
Our lettuce, from fifty-five named packages, was planted April 27, - 
in rows ten feet long and twenty-two inches apart, two rows of each 
variety. ‘The plants were thinned in the rows sufficient to give room 
_ for their full development, The statistics noted are asfollows. It will 
appear that certain varieties do not form heads. ‘i
