CHINESE 
CABBAGE 
A delicious vegetable 
that may be served as a 
salad or shredded, like 
cole-slaw, with dressing, 
becoming more _ popular 
every year. The green 
portion of the leaves may 
be served like spinach and 
the midribs of the leaves 
are delicious when prepared 
like asparagus. Do not 
sow the seed until the 
middle of July, for if sown in spring they soon shoot to seed. 
Thin the plants to stand 12 to 15 inches apart in the rows. 
Ready to use last of Sept. and Oct. It is adapted to quick 
freezing.

CABBAGE 
The 1952 Crop of Cabbage Seed in the U. S. and Europe 
was a very small crop—seed of some varieties is very 
scarce—order yours early. 
One ounce of seed will make about 2500 plants; 4 ounces 
enough plants for an acre. Always sow plenty of seed to give 
you all the plants you need—your surplus you can readily sell 
at a profit. Early Cabbage may be started indoors in February 
or March and outdoors in April and May. Sow seed of late 
varieties outdoors in April or May. It is easy and thrifty to 
grow your own plants. 
Schell’s ‘‘Harrisburg’’ Extra-Early. 
This is, without question, the best extra-early round-headed 
variety. It is very early, forming its hard, heavy, round heads 
in 62 days. You can grow 150 heads of ‘‘Harrisburg’’ Cab- 
bage on the same space required for 100 heads of other varie- 
ties, because the plants of ‘‘Harrisburg’’ are very compact with 
few outside leaves and these keep close to the head so that you 
can set the plants 12 inches apart instead of 18 inches as re- 
quired for other sorts. I recommend it highly. Pkt. 15 ets.; 
Yoz. 50 cts.; oz. 95 cts.; 14lb. $2.50; lb. $8.25.
