A New Late Cabbage From Russia

This variety coming from a cold
climate ought to prove TO be a good
hardy one for winter gardens.
Among the many new vegeaDle
forms not of recent introduction, de-
cided novelty and valuable acquisition
is the VoIga cabbage. The seeds were
sent to C. l.. Allen of Long Island nine
wears ago for trial. 1t was one OF
collection of all the most popular
brassicas grown in Russia. This one
type showed signs of vigOr and adap-
tatiOn to our climate. Mr.. Allen con-
cluded to give it a thorough trial, and
the results have been all that could be
desired. A specimen head is shown on
mage 135. 1t was a compact and solid
head, weighing 121s pounds. A desir-
able characteristic is its short, strong
stem. bringing the head close to the
ground: also the closely folded outer
leaves. 1t can thus be planted more
closely than varieties with long,
sprawling leaves.
The crop of 1903 was the fourth
from seed grown in this country. 1t
was produced by one of the best grow
ers Oh Long Island. The strong points
claimed for this variety are, it is a
thoroughbred. every plant making a
large solid head. weighing from ten
to 10 pounds. unless injured by accI-
dent. In shape it is midway between
the Danish Ball Head and the Fiat
Dutch: it is very fine grained and con-
sidered one of the best for shipping
and for kraut Second, its quick grow
ing habit which makes it valuable
for a second crop. When planted the
same time as our earliest varieties OF
Flat Dutch. it makes solid head
fully two weeks earlier than the
Early Summer and fully % per cent
larger.
Third. uniformity. In field of fOu1
acres grown for seed purposes. not
one per cent needed to be thrown out
thus making it one of the most re
markable under cultivation. AS a
trial the past season. in two rows AZ
rods each, not a single plant failed
to make perfect head. a result rarely
ever attained. Mr.. Allen does no
recommend the VOlga as an early sum
mer cabbage. but as a quick growing
late variety He found none of the
other types from Russia did wei
here.

Enolish Silks

There is no doubt about it that the
most deliberately plenished wardrobe
requires absolute simplicity as the
characteristic of some of its details,
and this applies very emphatically to
the morning shirt. Smart though the
white lingerie one is, it is not always
desirable to wear 1t, and SO there ar
rives an opportunity for the tailor
made model called the Gibson Girl,
with its neatly stitched pleats and Its
general air of practical utility.
There are being sold now some ex-
cellent English silks that wear very
well, and are not expensive.
They should be made with neck
band like that Of mans shirt, and
deep white linen collar should be
worn with them, with little tie ar
ranged in q bow In front. Supposing
there should be in the possession OF
the wearer a set Of pretty studs and
cuff links, they should be brought into
instant reQuisition.

Ribbon Work,

Ribbon work in various forms and
devices is applied to the waistcoats
and fronts this season, and very beau
tiful are the designs carried out on
some of the new examples. Old-fash-
Toned brocades in pearl gray, oyster
pink, white and the faintest shades of
blue, green and mauve, are used as the
basis of these schemes, the ribbon be-
ing worked into gathered borders with
trains of flowers running down on
either side, supplemented with en-
broidered leaves. Rows of ribbon con-
nected with hairpin work and fianked
with button motifs ornamented with
lace centers provide another effective
device which is simple enough for the
home embroideress to carry out her.
