One ounce will produce about one thousand plants. Sow the seeds in hot-beds eaily in March. When 3 inches high pot the young plants, using small pots, and plunge them in the same bed, so ll'.at the plants may become slocUy. They can be planted out, from the pots, when the season becomes sufiliciently warm, in May or June ; or they can be transplanted into a second bed to make them strong, until the weather is warm enough lo transplant, about 3 feet apart each way, in thoroughly worked and well-enriched st)il. Draw the earth up to the stems when about a font high. Egg-plant seed will not vegetate freely without a strong, uniform heat, and if the plants get the least chilled in the earlier stages of growth they seldom recover. Therefore, repeated sowings are sometimes necessary. Care should be observed in cutting the fruit so as not to disturb the roots of the plants. New York Improved Larg-e Purple [Dieer's Selected).
