A & M Cabbage 
Culture '*'* le secre t of growing hardy plants is to thoroughly prepare the soil in the plant bed. Plow the soil to a depth 
vuilulc of eight or ten inches, pulverize well. Sow in drills not too freely, about one-half inch deep, press the soil firmly 
oyer the seed; this is important. In about six weeks transplant in rows three feet apart, one foot in the row for Winnigstadt, 
eighteen 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 again applied. This accounts for much cabbage going to seed. The days 
indicated are the average number required to produce- heads ready for market, from the time young plants are set in the field. 
Cabbage may be grown all the year in Southern California and throughout the Southwest. 
It should be borne in mind that the big planting of cabbage is intended to meet the Eastern demand in midwinter and early 
spring, and that our time of planting is out of the natural season, and therefore often subjected to unseasonable weather, which 
causes it to be stunted and often shoot to seed. 
Improper culture, too, will stunt the normal growth of cabbage and cause the heads to prematurely go to seed. 
Cabbage requires heavy soil but good drainage and frequent but shallow cultivation. However good crops will be obtained 
on lighter soil if well fertilized. 
Should there be a cold spell when the thermometer lingers below 25 degrees, just at the time the cabbage begins to head, 
some of the crop may run to seed. Four ounces of seed will produce plants for one acre. 
For control of aphis in field culture dust with Nico Dust, using No. 6 in hot weather, No. 8 in cooler weather and No. 10 in 
cold weather. For home gardens Kaloil, Destruxol and Black Leaf 40 are very effective. 
A&M HnllanrlfM- (120 days) Decidedly one of the best 
OC IvL noildliaer late cabbages. The heads become 
firm while still rather small and reach good marketable size in 
90 to 100 days from setting out the plants, but continue to en¬ 
large, becoming mature in about 120 days. Short stem, compact, 
solid, round head weighing 6 to 7 pounds and a good keeper. 
It should be planted so that it matures in cool weather. (Pkt. 5c)

A & M Golden Acre Cabbage ^A^earii- 
est varieties of cabbage we have ever had in our trials. It re¬ 
sembles somewhat in shape Copenhagen Market but is a trifle 
smaller in size and several days earlier. In habit of growth it is 
quite dwarf, very compact and produces a head of desirable 
size for family use or for packing. The heads average in 
weight 2% to 3 pounds. Because of its compactness and the 
few leaves it may be planted 12 to 14 inches apart in the row 
and at this rate about 15,000 plants are required for one acre. 
It is very solid, of uniform shape and size and is what we 
consider an extra fine all around variety. (Pkt. 5c) (oz. 35c) 
VA lb. $1.20) (lb. $3.50) postpaid. 
(70 days) For tenderness and 
delicious flavor this cabbage is 
unexcelled. It_ forms a large, round, solid head and is much 
earlier than Cannon Ball. Extensive 
acreages are grown every year for the 
market. (Pkt. 5c) (oz. 30c)
