CULTURE lowing the first essential of successful cabbage 
f ' growing to be good seed, we have always obtained our 
seed from the finest European seed growers, and therefore we 
have built up an enviable reputation for the quality of our seed, 
we advise the planting of seed in beds or land of light, rich tex- 
a * a . depth of not to exceed % inch; and the soil should be 
pressed firmly over the seed. The plants should not be allowed 
to crowd one another before they are transplanted, but as soon 
as large enough to be handled should be lifted out to their 
permanent place. For early varieties, such as Winnigstadt, plant 
i n r P^ s 2 /4 feet apart, plants 1 foot apart in the row. The larger 
headed varieties, 1 % feet apart in the row. For the permanent 
new, soil of a firm, stiff, rich nature is preferred. Immediately 
after transplanting, the plants should be watered and constant, 
fleep cultivation is very essential. Sudden changes of tempera- 
should wfltoii tv, 1 !™ have a tendency to make cabbage go to seed and growers
