CULTURE — Cabbage requires a strorg, good soil, and should be heavily 

 manured. To raise large Cabbage without good soil and without working the 

 plants well is an impossibility. Cabbage is sovs^n here almost every month of 

 the year, but the seed for the main crop should be sown from July to September. 

 Some sow earlier, but July Is time enough. For a succession, seed 

 can be sown till November, The main crop for spring should be sown from 

 ■end of October to end of November, as stated before. The raising of Cabbage 

 for spring has become quite an item of late years; Brunswick should be sown 

 a little earlier than the Early Summer; the latter kind not till November, but 

 in a frame, so the young plants can be protected against cold v^eather, which we 

 generally have between December and January. After the middle of January 

 setting out can be commenced with. These early varieties of Cabbage require 

 special fertilizing to have them large. Early varieties are sown during the win- 

 ter and early spring. Cabbage is a very important crop, and one of the best 

 pajang for the market gardener. It requires more work and attention than
