CANTALOUPE 
CABBAGE 
Cabbage grows well in all parts of the coun- 
try, and should be included in every garden. 
The seed should be sown in the hotbed very 
early, putting them in rows about 4 inches 
apart and covering with one-half inch of soil. 
The plants should not be crowded in the hot- 
bed or cold frame or they will become tall, 
slender and weak, making the transplanting 
difficult. The plants should be hardened off by 
exposing them to the air for a time before trans- 
planting. They should be transplanted as soon 
as hard freezing weather is over, setting in 
rows 2 feet apart, with the plant 18 to 36 inches 
apart in the row. Care in transplanting will 
repay you. Be sure to water the plants well 
before moving them, so that the soil will cling 
to their roots. COPENHAGEN MARKET

CAULIFLOWER 
Cauliflower will produce crops in 
most soils that are favorable to cabbage, 
but it requires cool moist weather, espe- 
cially during the heading season. The 
seed should be sown early in the spring 
and transplanted when danger of freez- 
ing is past. Set the plants 2 feet apart 
in rows of 21/2 to 3 feet apart. The cauli- 
flower heads should be blanched by 
bringing the outer leaves up over the 
head and tying them so as to shut out 
the sunlight. This should be done when 
the heads are about 2 inches in diameter. 
Worms and aphis should not be allowed 
to destroy the leaves and should, there- 
fore, be dusted often and thoroughly.
