    Title is incorrect. This is a continuation of the previous entry.
    In the winter and Spring turnips (swede) are substituted for cabbage. The farmers never to my knowledge sowed much winter cabbage, but lately they have begun to do so; the only cabbages they used were York in the Summer and Flat Dutch in the harvest and early winter, followed by turnips. The flavouring of the boiled bacon makes the turnips and cabbage very palatable.
