'Mfek R.B. BUCHANAN SEED CQ 
MEMPHIS, TENNESSEE. 
Early Jersey Wakefield 
CULTURE—Cabbage is a very gross feeder, and well repays heavy 
manuring and high culture. It succeeds best on well-drained soil. The 
plants are started in frame or seed bed, and afterwards transplanted. 
Seed for early cabbage may be started in autumn in a cold frame, 
or in early spring in a hotbed. For main crop, summer and autumn 
cabbage, the seed should be sown in a rich border in the open air, in 
May or June. Sow shallow; a packet will produce about 250 plants; 
an ounce 2,000 plants; Vi pound for an acre. Set plants 1% by 3 
feet apart.

best main crop early cabbage grown, for the home garden

selected stock.

Wakefield this is in every way satisfactory. A sure header, makes 
large, flat, solid heads that in point of quality are the equal of any. 
Has comparatively few outside leaves, the heads being large for the 
size of the plant. Plant it again in April or May for a summer crop.

member of the cabbage family.

83—CELERY CABBAGE (70 days)—Chinese or Chihli. A wonderful 
salad plant, growing 15 to 16 inches high, somewhat resembling cos 
lettuce or probably more like Swiss chard. It yields an unusual amount 
of most excellent salad. Cut up like cabbage and served with mayon¬ 
naise or French dressing, it makes a splendid cole-slaw. Sow early in 
the spring and again in July and August, transplanting 18 inches apart 
in 2V2-foot rows. Time your spring planting so it will head before 
hot weather; it heads in 80 to 90 days.
