The fine weather ab the beginning: of the week would enable cultivators to get well forward with the usual autumn work in this department. All spare breaks of ground ehould be dug, if possible, while the soil is in a comparatively dry sfeate, never while ifc is web or spongy. Tomatoe3 will now be over for the season. All unripe, green fruib should be picked and placed on a shelf in the house, where it will ripen perfectly well. The haulms of the old plants should be cleared off the ground, and placed in the rot heap ; ab bhe same time a few cuttings should be taken off and pricked into a pot of light sandy soil. These will strike readily if kept moisb and under glass. Pumpkins, piemelone, and marrows should all be collected and placed in a dry place under cover, as they will keep in a dry place for a much longer period than if lefb out in bhe open. The debris of the plants should also be cleared away, and the soil well manured and dug. Broad beans may still be sown, also onions for transplanting, and for early spring use. Lettuce: Prick out another batch, tie up a few of the old piauts so thafe the foliage may become crisp and white. Celery : Still continue earth ing up the late planted cropa. Do not bury the foliage boo much. The kumara crop .should now be lifted and stored past. The best way to store these is to get boxes and put into each box about a fortnight's supply of tubers and fill up with dry sand. They will keep till wanted, in condition, in this mariner. Thin out all late sown autumn crop 3. Thin spinach as it becomes large enough, using; ab present the foli age of the young plants thinned out. Cabbages and cauliflowers : Plant a few more for succession. Earth up the crops which were planted a month or so ago, as they should now be making nice p?ants. All growing cropa which require the hill system of treatment ehould also be earthed up while the soil is in a compara tively dry state, and before bhs plants become too large. The soil also between the rows of such as require the flat system should be kepfc well stirred up with either the fork or the hoe.
