BRUSSELS SPROUTS

Brussels sprouts are one OF the
choicest varieties OF the cabbage
family. The plant Is grown for
the miniature cabbage heads
which grow thickly on It's stem.
II Is at It's best late In the season
and IL al the better for having
been touched by frost. They re-
quire the entire season In which
TO grow. and seed may be started
In q cold-frame and the plants lat
or placed In the open plat, about
two feet apart. Remember TO cut
on rather than break the little
cabbages when harvesting.
