SEED ANNUAL. 21 CABBAGE. The cabbage requires a deep, rich soil and thorough working. For early use, the plants should be started in a hot-bed or cold-frame, but seed for winter cabbage should be sown in a seed bed early in the spring. Some of the large late varieties seem to do best if the seed is sown in hills where they are to remain, and in that case sow two or three seeds where each plant is desired and then pull up all but the strongest. Plant the laage varieties three feet apart; the small, early sorts, from a foot to eighteen inches. Some gardncrs grow plants for early summer cabbage in a frame in the autum, protecting them with boards or matting during the winter. In mild climates cabbages can be transplanted in the autum. One ounce of seed produces about fifteen hundred plants. A half pound grows enough planes to set an acre. >wew Express Cabbage—, lybduces fair sized heads in; eighty to eighty-five days froni sowing of seeds; does not form as large a head as "Earliest Etampes" but is ahead of this variety several days.
