Wood’s Cabbage Lettuce 
LETTUCE 
Plant 
February to Kay, 
July to October. 
Lettuce requires rich, moist soil, clean and thorough cultivation and plenty of 
water. Make your first plantings in boxes or hotbeds and harden by exposure; 
later plant outside and transplant 6 to 8 inches apart in 18-inch rows; or plant 
in 18-inch rows and thin out. The curled varieties planted thickly make a beauti¬ 
ful border, the rows being thinned out by pulling as wanted. For a constant sup¬ 
ply plant every three weeks—lettuce may be had all seasons of the year. An 
ounce will produce about 1,500 plants; 2 pounds will make plants enough for an 
acre. 
No. 230 Wood’s Cabbage Lettuce 
[45 Days] 
If asked to name the most satisfactory all-round lettuce we would unhesi¬ 
tatingly name Wood’s Cabbage. For more than thirty years it has stood the test, 
and in the meantime we have not found a more all-season lettuce. It may be 
planted in the early spring, in the late summer, in the fall, and it is fine for 
forcing in hotbed, making a medium large firm head that blanches nicely. The 
quality is excellent, the flavor sweet and buttery. You will like it. Fkt. 10c; oz. 15c;
