KALE 
One ounce will plant a row 100 feet long; 2 lbs. per acre 
for Green Siberian, Long Seasons or Smooth; 5 Ibs., per 
acre for Scotch. 
Culture: Scotch Kale being particularly subject to the 
attacks of insects, both before and after coming up, it is 
necessary to sow it very thickly. Scotch Kale should be 
sown from the middle of July to the middle of August, and 
the Green Curled from the middle of August until the first 
of October. Plain Kale is sown nearly all the year round, 
either in drills or broadcast, and should be sown at inter- 
vals of 10 days in order to always have it tender. Sow 
one-half inch deep in rows 2% feet apart, allowing from 
6 to 12 inches between the plants, and cultivate as cab- 
bage. Kale being a very strong feeder, heavy manuring 
is necessary to make a good crop.
