delicious cole slaw. Boiled, it is far more palatable than

sown in spring, but in the vicinity of Philadelphia, seeds 
sown early in August have proved to give the best results. 
Makes full-size heads in about 70 days after sowing.

BRUSSELS SPROUTS 
More delicate in flavor than Cabbage. Sow the seed thinly 
in rows early in June and transplant to rows 3 to 4 ft. apart 
in the garden or field. When the sprouts begin to form, 
remove the lower leaves to force all nourishment sent to the 
lower stem into the sprouts. The flavor and quality of the 
sprouts are greatly improved by frost. One oz. of seed 
sows 500 ft. of row. Requires 125 days to mature.
