ARTICHOKE—Arrticuaut— Alcachofa—Urtidode, Cuiture.—Select deep rich, light loam, not liable to retain much water, Give plenty of well-rotted manure. Plant the seed the last of March, in an open situation, and keep clear of weeds;if dry weather, water frequently. The seed- ‘lings should be left in rows three and half feet apart. and three feet distant in the rows. When cold weather approaches they should receive a good dressing of well-rotted manure. The offsets should be taken off, and the strongest used for new beds. A bed will last five or six years. ASPSRAGUS—Asrerce— Lsparrago—Opargel. Calture.—The seeds may be sown in February, in drills one foot apart. Press the earth weil down witha rolleror board. Keep free from weeds, and in the second year transplant into permanent beds, which can be madeas follows: The ground shouid not be too wet, nor too strong, and should have alarge sup- ply of well-rotted manure. several inches thick, laid on, and then regularly trenched eighteen inches deep, mixing well the manure. The bedsshould be fourand a half feet wide, with walks two feet wide. Four rows of plants should be put in each bed, and the plants twelve inches in the rows. The crown ~f each plant should be about six inches below the level of the bed. When the top dies off, cut the stalks down; afterwards giving a good dressing of manure. A slight dressing of salt in early spring is very beneficial. ENGLISH DWARF BEANS—Frve pz Marats—Haba—Grofe Bobnen. 1, Early Mazagan. {| & Broad Windsor. {| 3%. Sword Long Pod. 4. Green Nonpareil.

Cultnre.—Sow the early sorts in the Autumn. and protect by a cold frame during the Winter, transplanting early in Spring; or sow the seed in open ground, early in February. Sow for later crop,in May. They should be sown in shallow drills four to six inches apart. When the plants are six inches high transplant into richly manured ground; the early kinds two feet apart, the late, kinds, for Winter use, three feet apart. The ground must be deeply loosened and worked thoroughly-to grow large and good heads. Hoe often, to kill weeds. If troub'ed by the Cabbage fiea (Haltica), sprinkle the plants with soot, wood- ashes, lime, or Scotch snuff; either of the above will drive them away. Late Cabbage should be set in trenches, and the earth gradually hauled up to the stems from which roois are thrown out; in this way they do not feel the droughts. Superphosphate of lime is excellent manure for Cabbage. TARDOON—Carpon— Card o—Garbon. Culture.—Sow early in Spring, in rows. where they are to stand, and thin them to one foot apart; when fullsize, bind plants together with straw or matting, and earth up like Celery to bleach. 6 THORBURN’S CATALOGUE OF SEEDS AND ALMANAC, OOP LIL AE LAN OL LLLP LPL PEEP PLL LOOP LLL LLL LL LLL LL LPP LLL PLL PLP PP EL LLP LL LEP LL PP POP LL LS PM CARROT—Carorre—Zanahoria—Mobren. 1.

When three o- four inches high transplant them into a garden frame to be protected by glass during the winter, but give plenty of air. except in trost. ‘These will be fine early plants to put oué in Spring to head. Manure a piece of ground and spade it in, and cover over the square with pine straw, which remove in Spring and dig over the ground, and it wid be ina light, friable condition for producing excellent vezetbles. In the Flower Garden, annuals, biennials and perennials, recom- mended iast month, may be sown, which will fill the ground with beauty and fragrance in early Spring. But the best effect in spring gardens is made with Bulbs, among which the Double and Sing.e Hyacinths, the Narcissus, the Crocus, the Snowdrop and the ear.y Tulips, are ail desirable. Early Tulips have not yet been much grown, but they tower at the same time with the Hyacinths, and the effect of them in mas- ses is even more magnificent. A pretty bed is made, by placing in the centre of the bed a mass of a striking color. and filling up around it with small circles of the most diminutive varieties. Orders should now be forwarded for these bulbs. Cotron Crop.—Cotton picking is the regular plantation work for | the month. It should be gathered as fast as it opens, for this isthe | way to secure it in good condition. If it stands many days after open- — ing in the boll, exposed to the dews of night and the bright shinning, of our autumnal days, it undergoes a bleaching process, which imparts | to the stapie a dead white color, with a crisp harsh touch, and destroys | its peculiar native creamy hue. Avoid collecting with it leaf and | trash of all kinds. Every lock of lint should be saved now, as the | “ great staple” must be scarce and dear for a long time to come; andit | should be the ambition of all planters to send their crops to marketin | the best possible condition. Do not be humbugged with “cotton | pickers” but press every hand on the plantation into the work and save | your cotton for the present in the good old way, and spend what money | you can spare in better plows, sweeps, gins and other labor-saving | plantation implements and machinery, that you know will benefit you. | Hands shouid not be allowed to pull the bolls from the limbs in pick- | ing—while it retards the picking it is quite an injury to the growing | stalk during the month of September. The productiveness of the cotton plant is frequently injured by early picking by the carelessness of hands in bending over it and pressing the limbs together by which they are broken and otherwise mangled; these injuries are irreparable , by the plant thus late in the season and the consequent loss is fre- quently considerable. Make your bales all square and uniform, and keep the qualities of cotton separate. Dealers and manufacturers all require bales of uni- form quality, and the price of mixed cotton is generally as low as the poorest cotton put in the bale. O.Lp Fruir TREES can often be renewed by cutting down the entire head. After the young sheots spring from the old tree, cut all away (after one year’s growth), except three or four of the strongest branches. From these a new top will be produced that will give fruit of the finest quality. 10th Month. OCTOBER, i870. eee [Sl Days. MOON’S PH bd. Fall Moon. . Third Quarter.17.. ASES.

As cold weather approaches, they must be kept in a cellar, or some place secure from frost. They will afford fruit for months to come, When the vines are killed, Sweet Potatoes should be dug and put up in banks or a potato-house tor winter use. Turnips sown early in October, of the early kinds, often make fair roots, and the country sorts sown they afford good Salad towards spring. Lettuce, Radishes, Mustard and Corn Salad may still be sown; Black Seed Onions may still be sown, and Onion buttons and Shallots planted. Cabbage plants may now be transplanted in places tor heading early in spring, and September-sown Lettuce also, for late Fall use. Hoe and thin the Turuips suwn in drills, and all other advancing crops. Late in the month, Asparagus and Artichokes will require their winter dressing of manure. Gather fallen leaves and rubbish of all kinds suitable for bedding stock and adding to the manure pile. Use with the leaves in littering the yards, swainp muck, woods earth, or even the top soil of an old field, to sprinkle over the lot, an inch or two deep, every few days, to absorb the urine, which will convert sawu »>«, or anything else that will retain it, into a valuable manure. There is nothing in gardening or farming that pays so good a profit as the manufacture and application of manure. No manure, no crops, on ordinary soils. if you wish to have a pretty flower garden next spring, plant in this month, or early in November, hardy bulbs and tubers of all kinds, as well as the hardy perennials, selecting for the latter a time when the ground is moist. Crocuses, Hyacinths, ‘fulips, Jonquils, Snowdrops, Lilies, Crown Imperials, Polyanthus, Ponies, &c., are all desirable and should be planted before the middle of November, as they will bloom finer than if delayed. Bulbs already give signs of lite. ‘The earlier they are plant- ed, the earlier and stronger they will flower the coming spring, and the more nourishment they will store up in the bulb for future bloom. Biennials should now be planted out where they are to flower, and hardy perennials, where not in blossom, may be divided and transplant ed. I[f in viyorous growth, delay until after hard frosts. If lett too long to grow in the same spot, the best sorts will be apt to die out. Culifornian Annuals, such as Clarkias, Collinsias, Nemophilas, Lepto- siphons, Coreopsis, Erysimumms, &c., &c., may still be sown. Also, Lark- spurs, Pansies, &c. Ali these, if sown now, bloom earlier and finer than if delayed until spring, which latter often prove quite indifferent in com- parison, «nd are soon gone. When the foliage of Duahlias is killed by frost, cut off the stem near the ground, and draw earth over the crown of the plant to protect the tubers from frost. It is better to take them up an keep the roots in a shed or cellar, free fiom frost, in dry earth or sand. RASPBERRIES should never be planted deep, if they are, many will die. Deep digging (or trenching) is true economy; the quantity of crop mo will much more than repay the expense and time it takes. cr ee CW ee lth Moth] WOVEMBER, 1870.
