Kohl Rabi, or Turnip-rooted 
Cabbage (. Brassica oleracea Caulo-rapo). 
Sow the seed thinly in rows any time from March to June, and when the plants 
arc about 2 inches high transplant into rows 12 to 18 inches apart, with about 9 inches 
between the plants. Apply 1 oz. of Clibrans’ Phosphate Manure to the running yard 
about a week before the plants are set out.

Leek (. Allium porrum). 
Sow early in March. As soon as the plants are large enough, transplant into rich ground, 
in rows 18 inches apart, and 6 inches between the plants. Leeks are extremely partial to 
nitrogen food, and would be greatly benefited by a dressing of Clibrans’ Nitrogen Manure 
at the rate of 2 ozs. to the running yard. If the ground be prepared for them the same way 
as for celery, they will make splendid exhibition plants.
