MANGOLD

are grown for 

 stock, and as 

 they grow 

 larger than oth- 

 er Beets, re- 

 quire more 

 room. They 

 should be sown 

 from April to 

 June, in drills 

 two" and a half 

 feet apart, and 

 the plants 

 thinned to 12 or 

 15 inches in the 

 row. The atten- 

 tion of farmers 

 to the growing 

 of Beets for 

 stock feeding 

 has rapidly in- 

 creased, but it 

 should be grown 

 more generally, 

 and will show 

 the results in 

 the health and 

 condition of the 

 stock. It sup- 

 plies good, rich 

 food for cattle 

 during the win- 

 ter.

German, Kopfkohl. 



(One ounce of seed to 100 yards of row.) 



Cabbage will thrive on any good corn land, though 

 the stronger the soil the better they will develop. 

 New land is preferable. Plow deep and manure 

 very liberally, as Cabbage is a strong feeder and 

 will repay for the care bestowed upon it. The early 

 sorts bear planting from eighteen inches to two 

 feet apart in the rows, with the rows from two to 

 two and a half feet apart. The larger varieties to 

 be from two to four feet apart in the rows, with 

 the rows from two and a half to four feet apart, 

 the distance varying with the size. It does not pay 

 to buy cheap Cabbage seed. Ours is American 

 grown, and from the best stock in the country. 



For early use, sow in a hot-bed in February or 

 March, and transplant to a cold-frame as soon as 

 large enough. In April the plants may be set out 

 in the rows. For late crop sow in nursery bed in 

 May or June, and transplant as soon as the plants 

 are five or six inches high. The ground should be 

 thoroughly cultivated every week until the plants 

 meet in the rows.
