Cabbage. 
Cultivation. — To grow good full-headed Cabbage the ground must be richly manured, deeply dug, and thoroughly worked. 
Sow in rich linely-raked soil which has had a good soaking ol water the day before. As soon as the seedlings are well up thin out 
or prick them oil in another bed 6 inches apart. When planted out they should stand about 30 inches asunder. Hoe every week, 
stirring the ground deeper, and drawing the earth up to the plants when they begin to head. A supply of Cabbage may be had 
all the year round by successive sowings. The first sowing should be made about the middle ol March — this will give the late 
autumn and winter supply. Further sowings may be made at intervals on to end of July or beginning of August, which will come 
in for spring and summer use. The Red Pickling should be sown in August.
