The Cultivation of Cabbage. — By a little careful arrangement Cabbages can be had almost all the year round. An early variety 
sown in the spring will come into use in the summer ; a main crop variety sown in the spring will come in during summer or autumn. 
Sowings made during July of a quick variety like the Colewort will come into use during autumn, whilst sowings made towards the end 
of August will be fit for cutting in the spring. July sowings of a Cabbage intended for spring cutting often bolt, whereas the same 
variely sown at end of August stands well. Cabbages require a rich, deeply dug, and well-drained soil ; when planted out they 
should stand 15 to 20 inches apart, according to habit and growth of the variety.
