CABBAGE 
Start indoors in January or February, 
and transplant to the open ground, setting 
the plants 18 inches apart in rows 2 to 
2% feet apart. An ounce of seed will pro- 
duce about 2000 plants. For fall crops, the 
seed may be sown directly in the row. 
Plenty of nitrogen-rich fertilizer and fre-
