'Winter, ought to have a light, airy

situation ;

and tile soil should nit be of too stimulating a nature.
The tlhifaise, primroses- sbouli not be neAlectcd. Pull
the flowers of such as are about to bloom,.,and encourage
a free growth. The plan: of placing three or four plants
in a- good large pan,..lies a striking effect. The common
ye/low crocus is useful ; let a dozen 6-inch pots be filled
wiet. them ; a few large peas will likewise be of service.
These things mix. well amongst more valuable specimens,
and • thereby enable us, in a great measure, to moderate
the formality attached to a stage. Layers of carnations
cad piccotees requite to he potted. Various hardy.
annuals may now, be sown. Sow a few seeds of some
good stock : scarlet and white are the most useful co-
lours : they may. he put in some sheltered corner, and-
left to stand the winter in the seed,bed.

Kitchen. Garden.—Hoe and earth up brocolies as they
require it,. and clean off all dead. leaves. Plant out let-
tuce to stand the winter. Prier., zut in beds. early cab-
bage, for spring planting ; likewise cauliQower, on the
wall bo:Ader ;. if under a frame, they may stand for ano-
ther fortnight.

Fruit. Depart%lent .—Man of the lato-keeping plums..
pears, and peaches, will require careful bagging, as a
protection from birds and wasps. Their depredations
become peculiarly annoying as day by day the finest of'
tl fruit becomes punctured and rendered useless. To,
accomplish this is not a -gory easy task„ and we mention.
t here for the purpose at drawing attention to the subject..
The fruit-room will require cleaning out. Lay the majo,
rity of fruit upon the deal shelves, without any covering
either -under or ores them. The finer varieties of pears
may be wrapped is silk paper as they are put past.
Avoid storing them in jars, with wood-dust, corn, &c. z
there is more harm than good in such contrivances.

MISCELLANEA.
Last week we were favoured with. a sight of a fine
seedling Libium, a variety of lazielfoltum, 11 veered by
Mr. Whalley, at his nursery, Fairfield. Nye mentioned
one a short time since,, exhibited by Mr. NI, halley at the
last exhibition, which we thought very superior to any we
had before seen, but this far surpasses the one exhibited ;
it is exceedingly large, the petals are broadly developed,
and the colour rich and intense ; it wants but one quality
to constitute it a perfect flower—a little improvement in
the sepals, which are rather wavy. Mr. John Smith is
the successful hybridiser.

ANSWERS TO CORRESPONDENTS.
Viator.—You complain that the herbaceous plants are
not so fine as those of more inland places; perhaps so;
but recollect the exposed situation, and also that horti-
culture is but a new amusement in this locality :we e
however, making such rapid strides as will soo 1;
on an equality with our neighbours.
R. Makin.—Tulips must not be put in -14 Padle'
of November, and ranunculuses are 115. ,Lplantecr-itr.

Jones.—Next week.
