Culture. —One ounce will produce 3,000 plants. The cultural directions given for cabbage will

earth gradually up to the stems. Water 
freely in dry weather, and especially 
when they begin to head. Never allow 
the plants to become crowded in the 
seed-bed ; transplant the m 
with great care, as any 
check will injure, if not en¬ 
tirely prevent the formation 
of the head.
