EGGPLANT (Sierpflanje) Sow the seed in hotbeds early in March, transplant to small pot the same beds; this is to make them strong and stocky. They should not be planted out in rows until May or June, when the weather becomes warm and settled, as cool nights and wet weather will check their growth. Set the plants in rows 3 feet apart each way and give them thorough cultivation, drawing the earth up to the stems when they are about a foot high; it is well to keep some plants in the hotbed for replanting. Repeated sowings are sometimes necessary, as me seed does not germinate freely without strong and uniform heat. In cutting, do not injure the plant. An ounce of seed will produce 1,000 plants.

Sowings for the main crop can be made in June and July, as the vegetable is used principally in fall and winter. The inner leaves may be blanched to a beautiful yellowish white in from 3 to 5 weeks, by tying the tips of the outer ones together, or by laying boards over the plants. Ordi- narily good soil and culture are all the crop requires. An ounce of seed w
