182 Bonanza@Q — Excellent quality 
75 days. The outstanding characteristic of this new 
early-midseason cabbage is that it makes hard 
heads at all stages of growth. Early in the season, 
heads aré small, firm, almost round, and perfectly 
uniform, yet will continue to grow and remain hard 
to reach maximum size, about 6% in. across and 
weigh 4 lbs. each. Has a very short core so is quite 
slow to-go to seed. Can be used early to late in the 
season. If you want a firm, small headed cabbage 
for home use, market or shipping, especially for 
long distances, we strongly recommend Bonanza.

190 Wisconsin All Seasons © — Drumiead 
(Yellows-Resistant) 
84 days. Bred from All Seasons and has inherited all the good 
qualities of that excellent cabbage. It is the hardiest of all flathead 
varieties and is much in demand for making kraut. Heads are hard 
and solid. Stands hot weather unusually well. Recommended for 
“‘yvellows’’-infested land as it is highly resistant to ‘‘yellows’’ as 
well as cabbage mosaic. On soils not infested with ‘‘yellows,”’ plant 
non-resistant All Seasons or other non-resistant varieties.

O-S Cross 
Giant Lubiid Howto Grow Cabbage 
For earliest crop, start early and 
midseason cabbage seed in hotbed 
or house; for medium early cab- 
bage, seed may be sown in a cold- 
frame or open-ground seed-bed in 
early spring. Sow late cabbage for 
winter use in a seed-bed outdoors 
when soil has become warm. A 
pkt., except O-S Cross, will pro- 
duce about 250 plants; oz. about 
2000 plants. Days to maturity are 
from the time the plants are set in 
the garden; allow 30 days to pro- 
duce plants from seed. Cabbage 
does best in deep, rich, loamy soil 
and should be given plenty of 
water during prolonged dry spells. 
Space early cabbage plants 18 in. 
apart in rows 2% ft. apart; the 
large midseason and late varieties 
2 ft. apart in rows 2% to 3 ft. 
apart. Cabbage should never be 
planted in the same _ location 
where it, cauliflower, broccoli, or 
any of the cabbage family, had 
been planted the previous year, 
Healthy, solid heads of late cab- 
bage may be stored for winter use.
