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, beans ; 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. Mb H Anderson the Editor of the “ Independent (through his solicitor), complains of the following paragraph which appeared in the “ Mercury ” of the 7th nit., —“I notice that the “Independent” is quietly attempting to throw “cold water ” on your railway project; doubtless the Editor’s interests. being more immediately interested' in the progress of the West Coast as against Wairarapa is the real secret of this opposition,” also of a note of ours to a letter signed “ Junius ” which appeared bn the 14th of December. Mr Anderson considers that these paragraphs impute unworthy motives to him in his position as a public journalist. We acknowledge we were wrong in hastily attributing any such motive to him as that complained of in the paragraph referred to and we regret we should have been led into the mistake. We consider it nothing hut fair when our attention is called to an involuntary error to frankly acknowledge and correct it.
