crisp, solid and verv sweet in flavor. The roots are short 
and very heavy at the shoulder, making them easy to har-

ductiveness. The roots frequently measure 15 to 20 inches, 
yielding from 20 to 2,5 tons to the acre. Pkt. 5c, ox. 10c,

1 ounce will produce 1,000 plants. 
For spring and summer sow in late .February, March, 
early- April, in hotbeds, transplanting to cold frames when 
of a sufficient size, then to the open ground when frost is 
over. The cultural directions for cabbage will apply to this 
crop, but the soil should be more heavily manured. Keep 
them well hoed, and bring the earth gradually up to the 
stems. Water freely in dry weather, especially when they 
begin to head. Never allow the plants to become crowded 
in the seed bed, transplant with great care, as any check 
will injure, if not entirely prevent the formation of the 
head. Persian insect powder will keep free from worms.
