Sutton’s Garden Cabbage 
Hints on Successful Cultiva¬ 
tion. To ensure the best succes¬ 
sion, sowings of Cabbage should 
be made both in spring and Au¬ 
gust. In February make a sow¬ 
ing of the earliest kinds in a 
frame or cool greenhouse. Sow¬ 
ings in the open ground may be 
made from March to May. If 
possible, planting should be done 
in showery weather. The rows 
may be from l '/2 to 2 feet apart, 
1 to 2 feet being allowed from 
plant to plant. The autumn sow¬ 
ing of Cabbage is of the greatest 
importance. In some districts it 
is usual to sow in July, but after 
extensive experiments we are 
convinced that, for the southern 
counties, early August is prefer¬ 
able. September and October 
are the best months for the plant¬ 
ing of August-sown Cabbages. 
Space the plants about l/z to 2 
feet apart each way. In districts 
where Cabbages manifest an un¬ 
usual tendency to bolt, sowing 
late in August, followed by late 
planting, will generally prove a 
remedy. 
For Spring Sowing 
6006. Sutton’s Earliest. Un¬ 
doubtedly the quickest of all 
the spring-sown Cabbages. 
Habit dwarf, with scarcely any 
outer leaves. Hearts tender, 
and delicate in flavor; but the 
chief merit is that they mature 
in so short a time. From seed sown in early spring the crop is 
ready for cutting almost as soon as some of the August-sown Cab¬ 
bages. Per oz., 60c. 
6057. Sutton’s Summer Drumhead. An excellent stock of medium- 
sized Drumhead Cabbage suitable for garden cultivation. Heads 
ready fairly early in the season. 
Per oz., 40c. 
For Early August Sowing 
The Cabbages offered below are all suitable for sowing in August. 
Customers who restrict their selection to the varieties named, and 
avoid sowing before August, may anticipate beds of Cabbage free 
from the tendency to bolt in spring. 
6121. Sutton’s Flower of Spring. Has won the reputation of being 
the most reliable Cabbage for the general spring crop from an 
August sowing. Plants compact, with few outer leaves, and the 
Sutton's Flower of Spring Cabbage 
firm full sized hearts are exceedingly delicate in flavor. The crop 
comes in for cutting very early in spring. Can also be sown in 
spring. Per oz., 50c. 
SAVOY CABBAGE 
Hints on Successful Cultivation. In all the essential points the 
Savoy may be grown in the same way as other Cabbage, but it is 
the usual practice to sow the seed in spring only—March, April, and 
May. Savoys need a deep rich soil to produce fine heads although 
the crop will pay better on poor soil than most other kinds of 
Cabbage. 
6157. Sutton’s Earliest of All. An attractive and tender little Savoy 
which matures for table in a remarkably short time. Heads con¬ 
ical in shape, close and compact; leaves pale green. Very sweet in 
flavor. Per pkt., 45c. 
Sweet Corn 
Plant about May 5 in hills thoroughly manured, and allow the 
plants to grow in each hill. Sweet Corn requires rich soil. A table- 
spoonful of good fertilizer, such as Sacco, in each hill at planting¬ 
time is beneficial. To have a continuous supply of Sweet Corn 
throughout the season, plant every 2 weeks until July. 
One pound will plant 125 hills. 
500. Bantam Evergreen. The ears are nearly the size of the Ever¬ 
green and are just as sweet as the Golden Bantam. Very desirable 
for second-early crop. Vz lb., 30c. 
50f. Golden Bantam. The sweetest and most delicious extra-earlv 
Corn for the home garden. Each stalk bears two or three well- 
filled ears, 6 to 7 inches in length. Creamy yellow, very milky, 
tender, and sweet. Vz lb., 30c. 
502. Golden Cross Bantam. A new variation of the famous Golden 
Bantam, and in many ways better than that old sort. Stalks are 
4 to 6 feet high, carrying two or three large ears, with 10 or 12 
rows of sweet, milky, yellow kernels. Golden Cross is fully as 
early as its parent, finds ready sale on the market, and is a supe¬ 
rior home garden Corn. Zz lb., 50c. 
503. Golden Sunshine. An extra-early Corn, ripening 10 days ear¬ 
lier than Golden Bantam. Ears 6 to 8 inches long, with 12 rows 
of tender kernels. Is worth growing in every garden. 
Vz lb-, 30c. 
504. Early Market. A 60-Day Sweet Corn. The ideal Corn for the 
small home garden. On account of its compact growth, the hills 
may be planted as close as 1 foot apart. Ears are of good size, 
12- to 14-rowed, and average close to 7 inches in length. 
Vz lb-, 30c.
