CABBAGE 
CULTURE—Early varieties should be sown in the open ground in early September or in cold 
frame in January or February. We do not recommend sowing in hotbeds as plants will be too tender. 
For earliest cabbage, transplant fall sown plants in late October or early November. 
For late, sow seed 
in open ground May Ist, transplant June 15 for fall, and July lst to 20th for winter cabbage, in rows 
31%4 feet apart, from 25 to 36 inches in the row, according to the richness of the soil, size and variety. 
Do not crowd them. They do best in rich, loamy soil, fertilized with barnyard manure of any kind and 
apply Victory Garden fertilizer as directed. Early Jersey Wakefield, Large Wakefield, All Head Early 
Danish Ballhead and Oregon Ballhead can be sown in the fall for spring and summer cutting. They 
seldom run to seed. Golden Acre, Copenhagen Market and Glory of Enkhuizen will not winter over 
without running to seed.

*GILL’S OREGON BALLHEAD—The 
acknowledged leader in the Northwest 
for a main crop winter cabbage. We have 
developed this strain until it excels all 
others for solidity, resistance to aphis or 
freeze injury. It is the best cabbage for 
crating or general market purposes. The 
outer leaves are deep green and will hold 
their color weeks after.cutting. It is the 
best keeper of all. The outstanding com- 
mercial cabbage and the most popular 
winter sort. We believe this is the most 
persistent heading of any winter cabbage. 
Often when planted too late in the sum- 
mer for full maturity the heads develop 
hard and ready for market in February 
or March. Postpaid. Pkt. 10c; 2 0z. 35c;

matured the earliest of some twenty 
strains we tested.

TON—Similar to Jersey Wakefield, but 
half again as large and ten days later. 
GLORY OF ENKHUIZEN—tThe best 
variety for summer or fall crops, for 
its tendency is to produce large heads 
even in dry weather. It can also be used 
for early spring crops. It is not satis- 
factory as a winter cabbage. Very brittle 
and sweet.
