WOOD’S HIGH-GRADE CABBAGE 
CULTURE—When transplanting cabbage plants from the seed bed, set them in 
good rich soil that has been deeply dug and well manured and apply a ferti- 
lizer containing plenty of ammonia. The soil in the seed bed should not be 
richer than the soil where the plants are to grow, otherwise the growth will be 
checked. Set the plants as deep as the first leaf stems, give frequent and deep 
cultivation, drawing the earth to the plants at each working. Set the early varie- 
ties 18 inches apart in 2!/, to 3-foot rows; the late varieties should be set 2 feet 
apart in 3-foot rows. 
One ounce will plant 100 feet of row and produces about 2,000 plants; 6 to 8 
ounces will make enough plants to set an acre.
