If you are prepared with hot-beds, Lettuce may be grown »ny time or month in the year by selecting forcing varieri-s that will form heads under glass. It may be grown out-doors in the South from early Spring until frost. The best way to grow Lettuce is to sow seed in a bed of rich earth, and when plants grow off transplant in rows two feet apart and about six inches in drills, and cultivate like Cabbige. The soil should be rich, and its growth pushed in order to produce crisp, tender heads. If Lettuce is grown in above manner you will not fail to produce heads. It should not be sown on a bed thickly and allowed to remain and grow up spindli- g and become tough; go to seed early and die out entirely. One ounce will produce 2,000 plants.
