A good load of hard cabbage will ride in awagon just as if the wagon was loaded with stones, whilea load of soft heads will bound along as if they were somany cushions. Punks, most growers call them. I have seen two fields of cabbage set two weeks apartin a dry season; the early-set field produced nearly a full 50 LATE CABBAGE crop, while the other one did not produce over one-halfcrop. Here is the reason—when it gets about July first, ina very dry year, the sun has taken from the soil a large por-tion of the spring moisture, unless you have been morecareful about preserving it than most men are. The early-set crop gets a good root system established, which catchesa large portion of this moisture, but you must do yourpart with the cultivator and keep a dust mulch on thesurface. (Fig. 12.)
