CABBAGE 



Cabbage is more extensively gl•o^vn in large quan- 

 tities for market use than any other vegetable except 

 potatoes. It is important that the finest seed only 

 should be planted, and in ofiering the following 

 varieties we assure our customers that the seed of 

 these most popular varieties has been selected with 

 the greatest care, and will give the best results under 

 favorable conditions. We offer several varieties each, 

 in extra early, main crop and late sorts, which 

 should be sown in good rich soil early in the Spring 

 in a hot bed, and successively at intervals for different 

 times of matming. Cabbage requires exceedingly 

 rich soil and should be constantly cultivated during 

 the gro^nng season.
