HOME VEGETABLE GARDENING 
CABBAGE— PROVIDING A CONSTANT SUPPLY 
A BOUT middle of September sow seeds of early kinds 
outdoors, in rows, quarter inch deep, ten to twelve 
inches between the rows. When October weather threat- 
ens their existence, transplant into a cold frame four 
inches apart each way. Give plenty of air and sunshine 
throughout the winter and just enough water to keep 
them in live, dormant condition. Set out at the first 
sign of spring, these will furnish the first cabbage of the 
season. 
Early in March sow seeds of early and midseason sorts 
in boxes in the house or in a hotbed in rows about four 
inched apart. Transplant about four weeks later in other 
boxes or cold frame, four inches apart each way, to be 
set out into the garden by about May ist. 
Finally, sow seeds of late kinds by end of May, into your 
garden, thin out seedlings to stand four inches apart, and 
transplant by end of July into thoroughly prepared rows 
for a late crop.
