CABBAGE Note—Prices listed are postpaid. Col Repollo Kopfkohl Chou Pomme Culture. Knowing the first essential of successful cabbage growing to be good seed, we have always obtained our seed from expert seed growers, and therefore we enjoy an enormous volume of business on this variety of vegetable. To raise cabbage successfully is not difficult, as it is compara- tively easily grown. We advise the planting of seed in beds or land of light, rich texture at a depth not to exceed %-inch; and the soil should be pressed firmly over the seed. The plants should not be allowed to crowd one another before they are transplanted, but as soon as large enough to be handled should be lifted out to their permanent place. For early varieties, such as Winnigstadt, plant in rows 3 feet apart, plants 1 foot apart in the row. The larger headed varieties, IY2 feet apart in the row. For the permanent field, soil of a firm, stiff, rich nature is preferred. Immediately after transplanting, the plants should be watered and constant, deep cultivation is very essential. A cool, moist climate seems to be the most suitable of all for the culture of cabbage which generally grows to greater perfection in the coast region, as heat and drought are in- jurious to them. Sudden changes of temperature have a tendency to make cab- bage go to seed and growers should watch them carefully to see that their field is moist but properly drain- ed.
