Cabbage 
s?r& . "\ 
Culture—Cabbage is an important crop and should be planted in fresh, rich soil, well manured 
and deeply dug or plowed. For early use sow in a hotbed in March, transplant to the open ground 
when danger from frost is past. Plant the early sorts about 18 inches in the rows and the late sorts 
about 2 feet in the rows and the rows about 3 feet apart. For the late crops sow in the open ground 
in June. Our cabbage seed is grown from selected stock and is equal to any offered in the market. 
One ounce will produce about 2,000 plants.
