CABBAGE SEED 
CULTURE—When started in hot-beds, sow thinly broadcast covering seed 
about % inch. When 4 to 6 inches high, transplant. Give frequent cultiva- 
sorts, 2 feet apart in 3-foot rows. Cabbage should be grown rapidly. It 
is a heavy feeder, and a rich well-prepared soil will produce the best crop. 
The maturity dates indicated are the average number of days required to 
produce heads ready for market from the time the young plants are set 
in the field. An ounce of seed will produce at least 1,000 strong plants; one 
pound is sufficient to sow an acre.
