THE MARKET GARDENER'S SEEDSMEN of THE SOUTHWEST 5 
Selected Cabbage Seed 
Culture. The secret of growing hardy plants 
is to thoroughly prepare the soil in tne plain 
bed. l’low the soil to a depth of 8 or 10 
inches, pulverize well. Sow in drills not too 
freely, about one-half inch deep, press fh ■ 
soil firmly over the seed; this is impo.t.nt.

apart. 1 foot in the row for Winnigstadt. in 
inches for large-heading varieties. Keep the 
crop well watered and cultivated, for when 
the growth is checked the seed head matures 
and bursts forth as soon as moisture is agsin 
supplied. This accounts for much cabling 1 
going to seed.

round heads very early in the season, about 
as early as Jersey Wakefield. It is short 
stemmed, producing heads almost on the 
ground; leaves light green, medium size, and 
always tightly folded over the head. The 
plants, therefore, may be set closer togethe • 
than most other early varieties. This new, 
large, round head, extra early Cabbage was

No. 3 Self-Protecting 
P, 1 11 E. S. This new strain was in- 
snowball troduced about ti years ago 
by a Cauliflower specialist of 
Denmark. It possesses all the good qualities 
of the best Early Snowball strains. The leaves 
are longer than the Snowball varieties, and 
enfold closely over the heads, giving a par¬ 
ticularly attractive appearance when displayed 
for sale. The inner leaves almost cover the 
snow-white heads, bleaching them nicely, 
thus avoiding the necessity of early tying of 
the leaves, as is necessary with other early 
sorts. Another trait of distinction is its uni¬ 
formity in maturing, enabling the grower 
to harvest practically all of the crop at one 
cutting. The heads are large, white, and solid. 
Postpaid, pkt., 15c; *4 oz., 75c; oz., $2.00; A* 
lb., $7.00; 14 lb., $13.00; lb., $25.00. 
We are listing above three of our strains,

ducing a snow-white, true uniform ready 
market product, will mature at about 10-day 
intervals, one field being cut clean when the 
next strain is ready to move.
