Three Ounces of Seed Yards of Row. A f^w simple rules for planting and growing naay help many to success where failure has heretofore been the result. Don't have the soil in the seed-bed as rich as the field to which the Cabbage is transplanted, or the plants will be starved after ti-ansplantation. Don't seed too thickly, or force the growth too rapidly, or the plants will grow too tall, slim and tender, and the growth be more seriously checked by adverse conditions. lioot deeply to resist drought. When setting out, plant up to the first leaf-stems. Supply plenty of moisture and manure, Don't sow the seed for a whole crop at one time, for plants of different age are differehtly=a€ected by adverse circumstances and by division a planter will have a better chance to profit, at least from a part of his crop. , The black rot at the root of Cabbage is a bacterial growth scientifically designated as Pseudomonas campestris. It affects Cabbage, Turnip, Kohl Rabi, Kale, in fact any of the Cabbage forms. Once the growth has appeared upon a field it is thereafter for many years vain to attempt to grow another crop on the same field unless it be radically treated, as for example with twenty bushels caustic lime to the acre and six bushels of common salt, a dose so heavy as almost to unfit it for cropping for a year. As a safeguard against the spread of infec- tion, we recommend that seed beds every year be placed in a new location. SIX FIRST EARLY VARIETIES.
