Kee plant 
CULTURE.—The Eggplant will thrive well in any 
garden soil but will repay good treatment. Seed should 
be sown in a hotbed or warm greenhouse in March or 
April, and, when about an inch high, transfer to 2-inch 
pots. If no hotbed is at hand, they can be grown in any 
light room where the temperature will average 75 de- 
grees. Plant out about June 1, 21% feet apart. 
Black Beauty. 80 days. The Black Beauty originated in 
South Jersey. It combines in itself many characteris- 
tics which are very valuable in this vegetable. In the 
first place it is very early, in fact, the earliest good 
market variety. By this we mean it is the earliest va- 
rietv that grows to a good size suitable for market 
purposes. It is dwarf-growing and bears its large 
egg-shaped fruits close to the main stem.

Kale 
CULTURE.—For the fall crop sow seed in May in 
shallow drills and thin or transplant to stand about 2 
feet apart each way. Cultivate like cabbage. 
Dwarf Siberian. 60 days. Is used for fall and winter 
greens. The stalk grows low and compact. It bears 
an abundance of bright green, curly, tender leaves. 
The quality is much improved by frost.

Kohlrabi 
CULTURE.—Sow in shallow drills in April and thin or 
transplant the plants to about 6 inches apart. Kohlrabi 
grows rapidly and should be used when about half grown 
when the roots are about 2 inches in diameter. Start in 
hotbed in March for an extra-early crop. 
Early White Vienna. 60 days. A very early small-topped 
variety, growing about 3 inches in diameter. The flesh 
is greenish white, crisp, and has a wonderful flavor 
resembling cauliflower. This is the most popular va- 
riety. Sow seed about May 15.

LETTUCE 
CULTURE.—Lettuce requires a very rich soil and the 
best care the skillful cultivator can give, in order to ob- 
tain that crispness, juiciness and delicate flavor. In sow- 
ing of seed during the dry, hot weather the ground 
should be kept moist and shaded, as the sun will burn 
the germinating power out of the seed.
