GARDENING HtNrs.--Make haste wisely IN
pstting garden crops into the ground. Some
seeds cannot be planted too early after the
frosts isout and the soil mellow, such as early
peas, pSrsnips. beets, onions. luttuce, DO; but
others will DO apt to rot i planted before the
ground becomes little warm, as beans. Gu.
cumbers, melons. radishes. sweet corn, DO.
Those who have but little skill in gardening.
and are not too far defiant from a town or city,
can usually purchase plants Of cabbage. toma.
70. celery, DO, cheaper than they can raise
them th hemselvss. These need not be set out
before June.
TRIHMrSo GRAPE vlExs. Where this has
been neglected. until now, it had better be de-
layed until The leaves are opened as large as q
dine. as the vines will bleed badly II cut while
the buds are swelling. Fruit trees and bushes
may still be pruned without injury.
! TRER PLANTTNa may be continued until The
buds have fairly opened; but the sooner this
work is done up now, the better.
