CABBAGE. 
Seed sown in hotbed or greenhouse about February 15 will give plants large enough to transplant 
into hotbeds about March 10. Set them 2 or 8 inches apart each way, and as soon as they become 
well established remove the glass for part of the day, to harden them for final transplanting into the 
open ground, increasing the exposure daily until Avril 10 or 20, when the final transplanting may be 
made. Plants for this early crop need not stand further apart than 114x2 feet. For late crops, sow 
seeds in April or May, and transplant to the open ground when large enough, setting the plants up to 
the first leaf, and 2x3 feet apart. It is important that the plants should not stand thick in the seed- 
beds, as this would induce weak, slender plants.

CARROT. 
Carrots succeed best on heavy loam, which preferably should have been well fertilized - the 
previous year, as fresh manure often causes the roots to grow pronged and misshapen. Sow the seed 
as early in the spring as the ground can be prepared, firming the soil down. over them. 
One ounce of seed will sow 200 feet of drill: 2 pounds will sow an acre.

Roots short and very thick. 
CAULIFLOWER. 
Culture for Cauliflower and cabbages is essentially the same, but to the former extra care given 
in applying fertilizers and moisture well repays the gardener. Sow the seeds for early and late crops 
as directed for cabbage, but do not set the early plants in the open field too soon, for if too much 
stunted by severe frosts they begin to form heads before they are strong enough to develop them well. 
Plants which have not headed before winter sets in may be stored in a cool cellar or coldframe, and 
will form heads there without any further attention.
