CABBAGE 
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 pre- 
pared 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.

It is easy and thrifty to grow your own plants and it’s fun to sow the 
seed in boxes, (we have them) then transplant them to Vita-Band pots 
(see page 42), then set them out in your garden. A pkt. of seed will give 
you several hundred plants, plus the pleasure of growing them. 
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. 
Schell’s ‘“‘Harrisburg”’ Extra-Early Cabbage, the best extra- 
early round variety. About 62 days. 
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.; 
Y20z. 50 cts.; oz. 95 cts.; 141b. $2.50; Ib. $8.25.

very firm and uniform and have the smallest, shortest core of 
any cabbage,—customers say “‘it’s all cabbage’; heads 4 pounds,

small core or heart it does not crack and can be used small or
