ASPARAGUS. Sow the seed in drills about one inch deep, and the rows abont one foot apart. Keep the soil mellow and free from weeds during the summer, and in the fall or suc- ceeding spring the plants should be set about one foot apart and the crowns four inches below the surface. The beds should be narrow, so as to permit of cutting to the center. Before the winter, cover the transplanted beds with about four inches of manure. Salt is an excellent manure for asparagus. Sow a little on the surface in spring, and it will keep down the weeds. The young tops may be cut for the table the second summer, but not very freelv until the third.
