Calabrese or Green Sprout¬ 
ing. You grow it as you do 
cabbage plants, starting in¬ 
doors in February or March 
and transplanting outdoors 
later, or sow outdoors in 
May, then transplant 30 
inches apart each way. The 
plants produce from the cen¬ 
ter small green heads about 
4 inches across. These are 
cut out and used before the 
flower-buds open, then from 
the axils of the leaves there 
develops thick, fleshy, light 
green sprouts, each with 
small buds from 1 to 2 inches 
across. These are cut with 5 to 6 inches of stem and 
prepared like asparagus. Pkt. 10 cts.; 34oz. 25 cts.; 
oz. 40 cts.; 341b. $1.10; lb. $3.50. 
Schell’s Brussels Sprouts 
Improved Long Island. The plants grow 20 to 24 
inches high. The “sprouts” or miniature cabbage¬ 
like balls are about 134 inches in diameter, very 
solid, and so closely set that the stem is completely 
covered. More delicate flavor than cabbage. Sow 
seed in April to June; transplant to 134 feet in the 
row, and rows 3 feet apart. When the “sprouts” 
begin to form, break off the lower leaves to give 
the “sprouts” or “heads” more room to develop. Pre¬ 
pare like cabbage. One ounce of seed sows 400 feet 
of row. Pkt. 10 cts.; oz. 25 cts.; 341b. 75 cts.; lb. $2.15. 
BUSH LIMA BEANS 
HOW TO GROW BUSH LIMAS. Make the rows 2 feet apart and give each plant 12 inches of 
Space. If the soil becomes hard or crusted, keep it broken up, or your Limas will never come up. Do 
not plant Limas until the soil is warm, about May 15 in this latitude. Plant Lima Beans carefully, 
edgewise with the eye down, one every 5 inches, then thin plants 
out when well started to stand 12 inches apart. Two pounds will 
plant 150 feet of row; 60 pounds to the acre.
