Early Ox Heart. — Conical heads, but little used. 



Very Early Winningstadt. — For the private 

 garden this is one of the best in cultivation, and, if

planted for a succession, none other would be re- 

 quired; in point of tenderness or flavor it has no 

 superior. But it is of no use as a shipping cabbage; 

 its good qualities for the table make it unfit for dis- 

 tant shipments. (Fig. 3.)
