Cabbage culture naturally falls
under two heads; (l The uuck
crop Of the South aud the uarlrN
market garden crop OF the Nsriil,
both based on early maturlng
sorts, and 90 the autumn sroP'
of the farm and gardens Of the
North, based ON the more robnsl
growing varieties claxsed as late
cabbage. ----.. .-... 80
Early cabbage is practically ait
consumed as a green vegetable.

Is handled as fresh vegetable,

manufacture of sauerkraut Gao

under present conditions II is al
WAYS available. either as the
product of a Southern truck
farm or a Northern farm, garden,
or storage house.
The soil for cabbage must ne
ccssnrily vary in different To-
ca!.tics. In one area II may be
uf an alluvial character. while m
another II may be- scdentary, and
IN still another II may be char

that cabbage grows well in all
these soils indicates it's adapia-
