The cabbage plant requires a supply of moisture, and yet if the cab- bage soil is too wet the plant will `be injured. Cabbage does particu- larly well on new land, and some 'growers claim that the cabbage . grows without an abundant supply of manure in the soil better than many other vegetables. It is considered a good practice for backyard garden- `ers to purchase plants which have been grown in hot-heds or hot-houses , and transplant them directly into the permanent bed. This saves consid- erable trouble. It is necessary when ,settiug cabbage plants to set them lfairly deep so that they will not he whipped about by the wind. They may be set eighteen inches apart, and there should be quite a good deal of soil around the roots. When they ,arc ready to be set out a hole may he made with a dibber or a sharpen- ed stick. The roots may be watered after they have been set. One of the most important 1'eatures of growing `cabbage consists in the attention -1 given to cultivation of the soil. There 3 may be some occasions when the head `will split, this may be stopped or prevented if the head is taken in the hands and turned forcibly from lone side to another. 1` u uvr -gar {\IIVI\In \.u. nu, , ,,u-n BEETS, CARROTS, PARSNIPS, I AND SALSIFY. These include the 1 most important members of the root ! vegetables. They are usually grown for winter purposes, though beets `and carrots are relished by many in their earlier stages of growth. All these demand practically the same attention. The seeds should be sown in straight ro.ws at a depth of about three-quarters of an inch. When the plants have reached a height of two 4 inches they should be carefully thin- I ned out so that they stand, beets and parsnips three to four inches `apart, carrots and salsify two or three inches apart. It will be found that the parsnips are very slow grow- |ers, and for this reason it is some- times advisable to plant a few seeds of lettuce with the parsnip seeds so that they will serve as a marker. The young beet plants may be used as spring greens. It is necessary that the soil be cultivated at intervzils ,during the summer months so that I the crops may grow. They do not as a general rule require as heavy wa- , tering as some of the other Vegetable crops. In the fall the beets should be pulled up and the tops twisted off close to the head, not cut off with a , knife as in the case of carrots, pars- ,nips, or salsify, which should have the tops cut about one-half inch from the roots preparatory to storing for I winter use. l .u\-`xv v ...u.. uuu. CORN. In planting corn holes about two or three inches deep should be made with :1 hoe. Five or six kernels of corn should be drop- ped i11 this and (covered with soil, which should he gently lirmed by trzunpiu_L; on it. When the shoots are about three inches high all ex- cepting the three sturcliest should be pulled out. The soil should be drawn up around the stalks as they grow, to give them support.

(By S. C. JOHNSTON. Vegetable Specialist, Ontario Department of Agriculture. Toronto.) Besides growing many vegetables for immediate use the backyard garden should produce some veget- ables which can be stored for con- sumption during winter months. Some, of course, do not need to be planted as early as the plants which {were described last week. Possibly I a. Week should elapse from the time the lettuce is planted before these should be sown.
