      KrrCHEX Garden . — Carrots and Parsnips having finished their growth should be taken up and stowed away for use . Throw some fine earth among them in the pit , to keep them plump and fresh . A part of the parsnip crop may remain in the ground longer , if other work intervenes . Go over the winter Spinach with a lioe an a dry day , and , follow with a dressing of soot ; this useful winter vegetable requires strong stimulating manures to grow it in perfection in winter . As Cauliflowers are easily damaged by froste go over them frequently and tie the leaves over the advancing heads ; a portion of the less forward may be removed to spare pits or frames , to succeed ; or laid in deeply in a shelto

      tered place , with their heads inclining to the north , be protected with straw or mats in frost . Clear the ground of crops as they go out of use , and trench or dig over roughly immediately . Cauliflowers under glasses and in frames may now have air freely . Attend to the preparation of Rhubarb , Seakale , and Asparagus for forcing . Pot a supply of Mint , Tarragon , Burnet , and Sorrel for winter use . look over the root stores , and see that Potatoes , Carrots , Beets , & c , are in a dry stale for winter . The earliest crop of Peas may now be sown on a warm sheltered quarter ; at this season sow rather thicker than usual , and protect them from the ravages of mice 1 a few Mazagan Beans may likewise be planted . —Gardeners' Chronicle .
