Cabbage 
Plant the seed early in the spring, transplanting the plants to rows 
2 teet apart and 15 to 20 inches apart in the row. Feeding, insect 
control, and good cultivation pay off in gratifying results with this 
crop. 
The seed should be planted indoors very early in the spring. The 
young plants, when 2 or 3 inches high, should be transplanted to 
other flats, or thinned out, to stand 3 inches apart in 5 or 6 inch 
rows. These flats should be set outside in a sheltered place or in 
cold frames after danger of heavy frost is past. When the plants 
are about 6 inches tall, hold the water off for three or four days 
and set the plants in the field, 15 to 20 inches apart in 2 foot rows. 
Feeding, insect control, and good cultivation pay off in gratifying 
results with this crop.
