BORECOLE, or KALE. 
German, S8Icitter=Sof)!. French, Chou Vert, i oz. for 3,000 plants. 
Borecole, or Kale, may be grown in almost any soil, but the richer it is the more abundant 
the product. Sow from the middle of April to the beginning of May in prepared beds, covering 
the seed thinly and evenly ; transplant in June, and treat in the same manner as for cabbage. 
Of all the cabbage tribe, this is the most tender and delicate, and would be much more exten- 
sively grown than it is if its excellent qualities were generally known. The varieties are all 
extremely hardy, and are best when touched by frost. pkt. Oz. jfUx Lb.

German, jfopffol)!. French, Chou Pomme. i oz. will produce 2,000 plants. 
The Cabbage to be well-grown, requires a deep, rich, loamy soil. For early use, sow the 
seed in hotbeds in February or March, or it may be sown about the middle of September, and 
the plants wintered over in coldframes. Transplant in spring, as soon as the ground can be 
worked, in rows 2 feet apart, and the plants 18 
inches apart in the rows. For late or winter use, 
the seed should be sown in May, and the plants set 
out in July, 2 '/ 2 by 3 feet.
