 2 to 3 feet apart, spacing the seed 1 inch 

 apart in the row, and firmly cover 1 to 2 

 inches deep. As soon as the young plants 

 appear, begin shallow culture and keep 

 free from weeds at all times. A packet will 

 produce about 200 plants; one ounce 

 about 750 plants; 4 to 5 lbs. are needed to 

 sow an acre. 



When one to two years old, transplant 

 18 to 24 inches apart in rows 4 to 6 feet 

 apart which requires 5.000 to 7,000 plants 

 an acre. In the home garden, plants may 

 also be set 1 8 to 24 inches: apart in rows 2} i 

 feet apart. 100 plants are sufficient for the

Brussels Sprouts 



103 Danish Prize 



Compact, Miniature Cabbages Closely 

 Set Along the Stem 



(125 days) Brussels Sprouts is a delicious vegetable 

 belonging to the Cabbage family, but more delicate 

 in flavor and superior in quality. It should be more 

 generally grown in home gardens to supply fresh 

 sprouts in the late fall and winter. The plants grow 

 medium tall producing an abundance of large, solid, 

 dark green, tightly folded sprouts of choice quality. 

 Grow in moderately rich soil to avoid an excess of 

 leaves. Sow the seed in April or May in the open 

 ground. Transplant in rows 3 feet apart and 18 

 inches apart in the row. When the sprouts begin to 

 form at the base of the stalk, break off the lower 

 leaves to give them room for growth. The plants are 

 quite hardy, and are allowed to remain in the garden 

 until after frost as the flavor of the sprouts is greatly 

 improved by frost. One packet produces about 300 

 plants; one ounce 3000 plants; 4 to 6 ounces for an 

 acre. Pkt. 10c; oz. 20c; V4 lb. 60c; Vi lb. 90c; 

 lb. $1.60; 2 lbs. $2.95; 5 lbs. $7.05.

Italian Green Heading or Sprouting 



(90 days) This delicious vegetable has become extremely popular be- 

 cause of its delicate flavor and high quality. It forms rich green heads 

 of good size. After the central head is cut, side branches develop smaller 

 heads giving a continuous supply for a long time. The culture is easy, 

 the same as for early Cabbage. Our special strain is the most popular 

 and best quality for the home garden and market. One packet pro- 

 duces 250 plants; one ounce 3000 plants; 4 to 6 ounces for an acre. 

 Pkt. 15c; 1/2 oz. 25c; oz. 35c; 1/4 ib. Sl.OO; V2 lb. $1.65; lb. $3.00; 

 2 lbs. $5.60; 5 lbs. $13.50. 



104 Rapa 



Hardy, Early, Productive 



This type of sprouting Broccoli known as Perennial. Turnip produces 

 numerous small green heads. It is cut while green with about 6 inches 

 of stalk. It is one of the first vegetables to mature in the spring as the 

 seed is sown in late summer for cutting the following spring. The cul- 

 ture and rate of seeding is the same as for fall sown Kale. Pkt. 10c; 

 oz. 15c; 1/4 lb. 40c; 1/2 lb. 60c; lb. 95c. 



103 St. Valentine 



Also Known as Winter Cauliflower 



(150 days) This is the white heading type of Broccoli grown in the 

 Northwest for shipment to the eastern markets. It can hardly be dis- 

 tinguished from Cauliflower, and is more hardy, but requires much 

 more time to mature. Very productive and of choice quality. Infections 

 where Cauliflower grows well, we advise planting Cauliflower only.
