These three head: 



of Cabbage were grown by M. POpovich, at Tiinisburg, La. 



During the past ''World's Exposition" tnere was exhibited by the late Richard 

 Erotscher different vegetables as they were in season. Many visitors will recollect the 

 specimens of Cabbage, Beets. Celery, Cauliflower, Lettuce, Cucumbers, etc., they saw there 

 displayed. He received a Prize for '«Frotscher's Flat Dutch Cabbage" and Early Blood 

 Turnip Beets. Ten heads of Cabbage, devoid of all outside leaves, weighed one hundred 

 and seventy-three pounds. They were raised on Captain Marcy's place, one mile beiow 

 Algiers. They were not exhibited for competition, but merely to show our Northern vis- 

 jtors what fine vegetables we have here during the winter, when at their homes everything 

 is covered with snow and ice. The Committee of Awards on Vegetables gave the Prize 

 "without any solicitation on his part — the}' thinking it well merited.
