CABBAGE 



One ounce will produce

CULTURE — For very early use sow in January or February in hot-beds; prick out when plants are strong 

 enough into other hot-beds; or sow in cold frames in March, transplant to the open ground when danger from 

 killing frost is past, in rows 2 feet apart and 18 inches in row. For succession, sow in open ground the last of 

 March or early in April. The autumn and winter varieties sow in April or early in May, in shallow drills, 3 of 

 4 inches apart; transplant early in July, in rows 21/ feet part and 2 feet in the row. Cabbage succeeds best in a 

 fresh, rich soil, well-manured and deeply dug or plowed. The late plants are subject to the attacks of the cabbage fly 

 which destroys them as fast as they appear above ground. To preserve the plants sprinkle them with wood ashes air- 

 slaked lime, plaster, slug-shot, or tobacco dust early in the morning while the plants are wet with dew. 



If there is one thing more than another in the vegetable world that should have the greatest 

 possible care in the growing of the seed crops, it is Cabbage. Of late years many gardeners 

 and truckers have depended on this crop almost entirely; and, realizing this fact, 1 am making a 

 great specialty of the varieties I offer. My Cabbage Seeds are grown by an old cabbage grower 

 on Long Island, Xew York, who has had many years experience in this special work. 



In short, rrn- Cabbage Seed is the very best that can be grown, raised only from the center 

 shoot, and are from carefully selected heads. There are none more reliable and none that can 

 be more implicitly depended upon.

 variety. Pkts.. 5c; oz., 20c; y A lb", 50c; lb., $1.50.
