The principal points to be attended to are good drainage, trenching the ground three feet in depth, hand mixing in a heavy portion of rotten manure. If tne soil be heavy, mix well with sand or light loam. Plant out in spring in beds three feet in width, eacn plant one foot apart. Fork over the surface of the bed in the fall, and cover with rotten manure. The following spring fork it with a liberal dressing of salt. A new bed should not be cut the first year and very sparingly the second. One ounce will sow 60 feet of drill. BEA
