Cabbage Plants* See page 62. 
Cabbage 
One ounce produces about 3000 plants. 
For early use a sowing may be made in the hotbed in 
February or March, and for winter use seed should be sown 
in the open ground in May or June. When the plants are 
5 or 6 inches in height, transplant into rows 3 to 3 V4 feet 
apart, setting the plants from 2 to 3 feet apart in the rows, 
according to the variety. A deep, rich, loamy soil is best 
adapted to the growth of this crop, and if large, fine heads 
are expected, the land must be prepared by very heavy 
manuring. A handful of wood ashes thrown into the form¬ 
ing heads will not only keep off the cabbage-fly, but will 
assist the growth of the plants to a considerable extent. 
Slug Shot is equally effective.
