KNOX’S IMPROVED CABBAGE 
No special care or soil is required to grow cabbage, as it will 
grow in any soil with proper cultivation, but good seed is 
extremely important with this crop. Like cauliflower and let- 
tuce, it is not a good summer crop, as it will not head up in 
extremely hot weather. For fall and winter crop sow the seed 
in May and June, for spring and early summer sow in Sep- 
tember and October. Transplant when the plants are about 
six weeks old 18 inches apart in rows 30 inches apart. To 
keep heads from splitting when ripe, loosen the plants a little 
at the roots.
