 all sections of the world is proverbial, but there is a great 

 difference in the quality of the stocks. Some wiil pro-

 to remain, and thin to 2 or 3 feet apart in the row, when 

 of proper size. In the South sow from January to [May,

 good Cabbage crop costs less to grow than a poor one. Ex-
