Every cook and every good housekeeper knows the value of the little patch ofherbs upon which she makes daily drafts in the summer, and which furnishes such a nice collection of dried herbs for winter seasoning, without which the Thanksgivingturkey would be scarcely worth the having ; while as domestic medicines several kinds are held in high repute. A very small space in the garden will give all the herbsneeded in the family. The culture is very simple; and the best way is to make a little seed-bed in the early spring and set the plants out in a bed as soon as largeenough. As a general rule it is best to cut the herbs when in flower, tie them up in small bunches and hang in the shade to dry. We give a list of the herbs generallycultivated and prized.
