Culture. When started in seed-beds, sow thinly in drills 
6 inches apart, covering seed about % inch. When 4 to 6 
inches high, transplant to the garden or field. Give fre¬ 
quent and deep cultivation,, drawing the earth to the 
plants at each working. Set the early varieties at inter¬ 
vals of 18 inches in rows 21/ 2 feet apart; the larger and 
later sorts, 2 feet apart in 3-foot rows. Cabbage should be 
rater sorts, z reet apart in o- _ 
grown rapidly. It is a heavy feeder, and a rich, 
well-prepared soil will produce the best crop. 
The maturity dates indicated are the average 
number of days required to produce heads ready 
for market from the time the young plants are 
set in the field. For success, plant only the 
best seed. Reuter’s Cabbage Seeds are famous 
in the South. 
An ounce of seed will produce at least 1000 
strong plants; a half-pound is sufficient to sow 
an acre.
