CABBAGE. 



Twenty varieties of cabbage were sown in the hotbed in April, and set out in the 

 garden the last week in May. One variety, Copenhagen Market, was grown from two 

 different strains. 



Some injuries were noted from the larvai of the small White Cabbage Butterfly 

 {Pontia rapae). The use of pyrethrum insect powder will overcome this difficulty.
