One of the few vegetables that home gardeners can enjoy 
the year round. There are early cabbages, late cabbages, 
round heads, flat 
heads, and pointed 
heads; green and red 
cabbages, smooth- 
leaved and curled¬ 
leaved. Our cab- 
bage seed is very 
carefully selected 
and true to type. 
One ounce of seed 
will produce about 
2,000 plants. 
About 16,000 early 
or 8,000 late cab¬ 
bage plants are 
set to the acre. 
CULTURE—The different kinds of cabbages vary so much that it is 
Impossible to lay down precise rules for the cultivation of even each 
entire class or section. A cool moist climate has been proven the most 
suitable of all for culture of cabbages. Heat and drought are very in¬ 
jurious to them, while they grow well in moist, foggy weather, even 
when somewhat cold. The ground should be dug rather deeply and 
plentifully fertilized. Cover the seed 1/4 to / z inch deep. Early varie¬ 
ties may be set as close as 16 or 18 inches, the rows being 30 to 36 
Inches apart. For late varieties leave 18 to 24 inches between plants. 
Plants started in cold frames are set out early in April and seeds plant¬ 
ed at the same time will give plants for succession crop. Plants for the 
late crop are started in May or June. These are then transplanted to 
where the crop is to grow. Plants should be watered from time to time 
during the summer, and should be protected from insects. 
Extra Early Copenhagen Market ™ a D * d S e nTr s 
have reported that their entire crop from this seed has 
been marketed before other Copenhagen heads were 
ready to cut. / 2 oz., 30c; oz., 50c; 54 lb-,

p e Tsai—CHINESE CELERY or Cabbage 
About 65 Days. When matured Pe Tsai resembles Cos 
Lettuce more than cabbage. Used in salads like celery or 
lettuce, or may be cooked like asparagus. For spring 
planting, it should be planted very early, as it runs to 
seed very quickly in hot weather. Will not assume the 
rather celery-like form unless the plants are banked up 
as they grow or the leaves tied up over the center to bold 
it in upright position and at the same time blanching the 
inner leaves and leaf stems.
