LONG ISLAND GROWN CABBAGE SEED 
No. 38. Perfection Drumhead 
Savoy 
(110 Days).—Should be grown in every garden. 
No other winter cabbage can compare with it in 
flavor, particularly after it has been touched by 
frost, when it is equal to cauliflower. If you grow 
them once you will never want to be without 
them. To have the finest solid hard heads do not 
plant till May, June or early July as it will not 
head up hard during very hot weather. 
Postpaid, pkt. 5cjoz. 25c; *4 lb. 75c; lb. $2.00. 
No. 39. Early Jersey Wakefield 
CULTURE—For plants of the earliest sorts, 
sow seed in January or February under glass, and 
put out in flats or frames about 2 inches apart 
each way. Transplant to open ground as soon 
in spring as the land can be properly prepared. 
A rich, warm, fibrous loam is best. Set the 
early plants in rows about 18 inches apart, 
and rows at least 2 feet apart. Give thorough 
cultivation and irrigate in dry weather if prac¬ 
ticable. A little nitrate of soda applied around 
the plant is of great benefit. A fertilizer with 
a high percentage of potash will also do much 
good. For late cabbage plants, sow seed in drills 
in open ground during April and May, and 
transplant in June and July about 2 feet apart 
in 2% foot rows. Dusting with tobacco dust, 
slug shot, etc., are good and safe remedies for 
some of the insect pests attacking plants of the 
cabbage family. Sow one ounce for 2,000 plants; 
6 to 8 ounces for one acre. Cover *4 in. deep.
