DANItLS' LITTLE QUEEiv. Itcdtiad from a J'liolojrap'i 
Cultivation.- Cabbages are without doubt the most useful and at the 
(Same time the most easily grown of our Spring and Autumn Vegetables, 
urnd can be grown without much outlay by everyone possessing a garden 
•or an allotment. They prefer a good rich loamy soil, and being what is 
(termed a gross feeder will respond well to good cultivation, and will repay 
•any extra outlay in this direction, as under these conditions they will heart 
nip quicker and are consequently much moro tender and of excellent flavour. 
'The seeds should bo sown on moderately poor soil as the plants aro thus 
snore stocky and hardy, and when transplanted into good soil will respond 
•more readily to this treatment. 
For Summer and Autumn use sow the seed in March and for a 
succession in April and May if required. They are greatly improved by 
being pricked out into nursery beds as soon as large enough and finally 
itransplanted into rich, well-manured soil. The smaller varieties, such as 
“ Little Queen ” and “ Ellam’s Early,” plant out in rows 18 inches apart, 
•and 15 inches from plant to plant ; the larger and stronger growing sorts 
such as “Defiance,” “Enfield Market,” etc., in rows 2 feet apart and 2 
Jeet from plant to plant. 
Blln the kitchen garden should occupy the moistest and coolest positions, 
except the early Spring kinds, which require a warm sheltered spot. The 
ground should he deeply dug, plentifully manured, and kept free from 
weeds. 
Cabbages are highly appreciated in the early Spring, and for this crop 
seed should be sown in the Northern Districts in July, and in the Midland 
and Southern Districts during August. Theso succeed excellently planted 
out on firm ground, such as an onion bed, or other ground previously 
occupied by surface -rooting plants that have not impoverished the ground 
too much. Do not dig over but hoc and clean before planting. 
Manuring. — The hoe should bo kept going'every week on the beds, 
and an occasional application of nitrate of soda or sulphate of ammonia, 
at the rate of one ounce to the square yard, is recommended before the 
hearts form, or when procurable an occasional watering with liquid manure 
of medium strength will be found very beneficial. 
Cutting. — A little attention in this direction will prolong the period 
of usefulness for this valuable crop. When cutting Cabbages do not cut 
off too low, always leave a few bottom leaves on the stem. The plants will 
then break again, producing a cluster of young succulent heads, which 
heart immediately and prove a very useful continuation of the crop. 
“ I have had a splendid lot of Cabbage from the Seed I had from you last autumn.*' — 
Mr. J. PENTER, Tolnnan. 
“ Your Defiance Cabbage has done splendid with me, they were sown last autumn. 
I have the Quest Cabbages on the field of over 100 plots.”— Mr.W. WILSON, Newington. 
“ I am very pleased to inform you that I have had the finest Defiance Cabbage that 
•Las ever been grown.” — Mr. J. PORTER, Ilkeston. 
“ I would like to mention that the Ailsa Craig Onion and the Defiance Cabbage I 
purchased from you last year have turned out very well, several of the Cabbages weigh- 
ing over 10 lbs., yet having a good Uavour and being very tender.” — Mr. H. HOSKIN, 
Exeter. 
” The Defiance Cabbage Seed obtained from you last year have proved very satis- 
factory, everybody admires them. I can well say they all weigh over 11 lbs.”- Mr. W. 
GLAVIN, Merthyr Tvdvil. _
