Savoy Cabbage. 
Cultivation. — This, like all of its class, 
delights in deep, rich, moderately consistent 
soil, and it must be the chief object of the grower 
to grow good plants that may become well- 
established, large, and leafy by the Autumn. 
Sow early in March, and again about April 10th, 
and thinly, into a well-enriched and finely-worked 
soil. We are very partial to the Dwarf Ulm, 
Tom Thumb, or Daniels’ Extra Earl}', as they 
produce such neat firm heads, and may be 
planted more thickly than is ordinarily requisite. 
Transplant the larger kinds out permanently 
in drill rows two feet apart, and from eighteen 
to twenty inches apart in the rows. The 
dwarfer kinds may be planted eighteen inches 
apart in the rows, and fifteen inches asunder 
in the run. To prevent clubbing, deep and 
good culture, and frequent changing of crops is 
beneficial, often besides it proves a powerful 
preventive to dip the roots of all young plants 
into a lye formed of cow-dung, w r ood ashes, &c., 
just before planting them out into the permanent 
Winter quarters. If a sprinkling of lime or soot 
be throivu amongst the seedling plants upon the 
seed beds when very young, this often deters the 
pest from attacking them, as it sometimes does 
at this early date. For late use, and northern 
and cold climates, “Norwegian” cannot be 
surpassed.

EVIDENCE OF QUALITY. 
“ I took First Prize for your Giant Red Drumhead Cabbage at 
Campsey Ash Show, and First for Continuity Lettuce, and several other 
Prizes from your Seed." — Mr. J. THURSTON, Blaxhall. 
“I feel it my duty to bear testimony to the value of your unsurpassed 
Seeds. Last. December I cut a splendid Savoy Cabbage which I grew from your 
Victoria Savoy which turned the scale at twenty-eight pounds. Last 
Monday I cut. a Cabbage grown from your Defiance Seed of excellent quality 
and shape which, when the rough leaves and stem were taken off, it turned the 
scale at thirty-two pounds,”— Mr. F. JOHNSON, Great Bowden. 
“I am pleased to inform you that the collection of Seeds you sent me last 
year produced excellent crops, I had Savoy Cabbages from eight to ten 
pounds.”— Mr. S. CANN, Alderney
