GARDENER’S CALENDAR FOR JANUARY.
(By a Practical Wairarapa Farmer.) Sow , the last crop of peas, the early sorts, French and scarlet and white Dutch runners, beaus ; sow lettuce for salads and substitute for cabbage ; sow early stone turnips, not the main crop ; plant celery in trenches, and also all your late potatoes ; the first week I have lost a crop but once in 25 years. Sow spinnach in drills, a foot apart in rich soil; sow carrots in your early pototoe ground in drills ten inches, apart, the early horn, they will be good for table all winter.
