W ?0 U S C ya°ds e of Row KALE or BORECOLE Four Pounds t o the Acre 
Native of Europe about 2000 B. C. 
This is a very valuable plant for greens. A curly loose-leaved plant of the Cabbage family, of hardy 
character and succeeding on almost any soil. 
Sow in the early Spring when the Oak is in full leaf, again in the early Autumn. Drill in rows of 
feet and thin to 8 or 10 inches, according to vigor of variety. It is a great favorite in the Southern States 
and is grown very extensively at Norfolk, Virginia, for shipment to the Northern markets during January 
and February. 
BLOOMSDALE DOUBLE EXTRA CURLED— 
50 Days 
A superior sort, introduced by us in 1894, being very 
curly, very dark green, so short stemmed that it 
rests practically on the ground, 9 to 11 inches broad, 
spreading and far denser in foliage than any other 
sort. Plants broader than a bushel basket and 
seeming to hug the earth. More hardy than Dwarf 
Curled Scotch, passing unharmed through the 
severest winter as far north as Philadelphia. 9 
inches high. The Bloomsdale Kale is more hardy 
than the Scotch Kale, retaining its good color after 
cutting and throughout days of transportation, 
bringing more money when put upon the market 
because it is more attractive and appears to be 
fresher all the time because of its dark green color.
