Annual descriptive catalogue of seeds & Nursery stock Massachusetts Catalogs; Flowers Seeds Catalogs; Vegetables Seeds Catalogs; Gardening Equipment and supplies Catalogs; Nursery stock; Flowers; Vegetables; Gardening. German, Kopfkohl. -— French, C/tou Pomme. — Spanish, Berza. {Forprice on Cabbage Plants, see Vegetable Plants.) All the cabbage tribe requires is the soil to be rich, deep, well- drained, and abundantly manured. For the early kinds, plant thirty inches between the rows and sixteen inches between the plants. For late kinds, three feet between the rows and two feet between the plants. For veiy early use, sow in January or February, in hot-beds. Set out when the plants are strong enough into other hot-beds, or set in cold-frames in March. Transplant when danger from frost is past to the open ground. For a succession, sow in the open ground last of March or early in April. Late plants are sometimes subject to attacks of the cnbbage fly, which destroys them as fast as they appear above ground. To prevent this destruction, sprinkle the plants with wood ashes, air-slacked lime, plaster, slug-shot, or tobacco dust, when the plants are wet with dew. One ounce ojseed produces about 3,000 plants. BRECK'S STRAIN EARLY JERSEY WAKE- FIELD, a favorite with Boston market gar- deners. Very early, medium size, of pyramidal shape . . . .
