Chinese or Celery Cabbage 



Also called Pe-Tsai„ and Cut Cabbage, by Chinese gardeners, 

 and is beginning to attract attention in America. It does not 

 form a Cabbage head, but when grown to its full size resembles 

 the Cos Lettuce and the outer leaves may be used during its 

 growth. It is odorless while being cooked, and the flavor is 

 delicious, being very mild, and it is excellent for use as a salad 

 or cooked like Asparagus. We are quite sure that it will please 

 all who partake of it. Sow seed after July 1st and give plenty 

 of room to the plants, setting in rows 3 feet apart and 2 feet 

 apart in the row. Pkt. 10c, oz. 30c, Yi lb. $1.00, lb. $3.00.
