_- _ _ Culture. — Sow in May, in the same manner as Cauliflower, and trans- 



FkPSIQQ^IQ VflPAIITC plant in July, 1 foot apart in rows VA feet apart. In gardeus, large and 

 UI UjJviJ OLfl UU lO small, Brussel Sprout is the very best winter vegetable that can be 

 r> t> grown. It is as hardy as the common Curled Greens. The real Sprout 



v-HOU DE BRUXEELES is not much larger than a marble, and almost as firm and hard as the 



Bei'zCl de Brusels stalk itself. These cooks prefer. They strip off the outer covering, cook 



IfJOfSlltOhr them whole, and serve them up artistically. When cooked through and 



no more, such Sprouts melt in the mouth, like the tenderest Cauliflower, 



and are equally as good. If more widely known, Brnssels Sprouts 

 would be as popular as it is valuable.

30. Early Jersey WaKefield Cabb&ge.—Bo/griano's Selected Slock. 

 —While this sort is not so early as Bolgianos Extra Early Express 

 Cabbage, it will be found to be the very best conical headed sort to 

 come m immediately after it. It heads up remarkably hard and 

 solid, with but few outside leaves, which are unusually thick and 

 heavy, enabling it to stand cold weather without injury when carried 

 through the winter, either in the open ground in the South or in cold 

 frames in the Korth. PKts. 5cS 10c, Oz. 15c, 1/4 Lb. 40c, Lb. $1.25.

 Cabbage.— This is the largest Early Cabbage, bred from the Early 



Jersey" Wakefield, to meet a demand for a larger heading sort. It 

 posseses all of the valuable characteristics of the parent, with the ad- 

 vantage of the heads being fifty per cent, larger, though a few days 

 later. Our strain of the seed is very superior. PKts. 5c ® 10c.

31. New Queen Victoria Cabbage.— A splendid tvpe of the very 

 large Early Cabbage. Owing to its large frame it is often cut before 

 maturity and outsells the smaller sorts, and is marketed at the same 

 time. If left to fully mature, its heads become perfectly solid.
