WOOD’S HIGH-GRADE CABBAGE 
lULTURE.—When transplanting- cabbage plants from the seed 
ed, set them in good rich soil that has been deeply dug and well 
nanured and apply a fertilizer containing plenty of ammonia. 
Ihe soil in the seed bed should not be richer than the so-tS where 
he plants are to grow, otherwise the growth will be c.Iiecked. 
let the plants as deep as the first leaf stems, give frequent and 
eep cultivation, drawing the earth to the plants at each working, 
let the early varieties 18 inches apart in 2*4 to 3 foot row's; the 
ate varieties should be set 2 feet apart in 3 foot rows. 
One ounce will plant 100 feet of row and produce about 2,000 
ilants; 6 to 8 ounces will make enough plants to set an acre. 
PBANTING DATES (For the Vicinity of Richmond.) 
Spring Planting. —Plant the early varieties in boxes indoors or 
in hot bed in January, February or March: for a summer crop 
plant the early varieties outside from April to June.
