EARLY VARIETIES. 



Earliest of All was tlie first to head. It had a tendency to form 

 several heads, which is an unusual occurrence. 



Lighining is a good strain of the Early Wakefield type, and is a very 

 uniform header. Not as early as was advertised. 



Etampes is known as a reliable early variety, but it headed somewhat 

 unevenly this season. Quite desirable. 



SECOND-EARLY VARIETIES. 



Dwarf Flat Dutch follows very closely the early varieties. It is a sure 

 header and a compact grower. Its increased size and solid heads cause it 

 to supersede the earlier varieties as soon as it appears in the market. 



Winnigstadt is an old favorite, and is a very reliable header. A val- 

 uable variety where a conical head is desired, on account of its sureness 

 of heading. 



Fottler^s Drumhead was somewhat uneven this season. It is a desira- 

 ble cabbage for general purpose. Planted late it makes a good winter 

 variety, although early planting brings its season in August. 



MEDIUM SEASON. 



There seems to be but little choice between the Acme, Vandergaw and 

 Prize Head Flat Dutch, which are the three best of the varieties matur- 

 ing in three months after transplanting.
