Bolgiano's Frost-Proof Cabbage Plants 



Will Mature Heads Two to Three Weeks Earlier Than Your 

 Home-Grown Plants 



OUR GUARANTEE: 



We will refund ihe purchase price to any customer who is dissatisfied with results produced after crop is matured. 



A person wanting Extra Early Cabbage for home use or market can'l afford not to use these plants. 



There are a number of islands along the Seacoast of South Carolina and 

 the Gulf Coast of Louisiana where the soil and climatic conditions are just 

 suited for growing tough, hardy cabbage plants during the Winter and early 

 Spring. The seed is planted in the open field. The plants make a slow but 

 steady growth, until at eight to ten weeks of age they are very tough and hardy, 

 the biids are purple and outer leaves a reddish brown. When in this condition 

 they can be shipped to territory farther north and be planted in the open ground 

 a month to six weeks sooner than the home-grown hot bed or cold frame plants. 

 These FROST-PROOF CABBAGE PLANTS will stand a temperature 10 

 degrees above zero without injury; the land freezing or the plants being 

 covered with ice, sleet or snow after they are planted will not injure them. 



The top of the plant does not grow until your regular Spring weather 

 opens, but the roots grow from the time they are planted, and just as soon as 

 Spring weather starts, the established root growth assimilates the fertilizer 

 in the soil; the plants grow very fast, maturing headed Cabbage two to three 

 weeks sooner than you can mature them from hot bed and cold frame plants. 



Charleston Wakefield Cabbage 



You know what the difference in profit will be if your crop is 

 matured and marketed before the general crop from home-grown 

 plants is matured, but to get this advantage Bolgiano's Frost-Proof 

 Cabbage Plants must be planted a month nr six weeks earlier than you 

 would plant home-grown Plants. 



Bolgiano's Cabbage Plants are grown from the best Long Island grown 

 seed and are shipped direct from our growing station in South Carolina or 

 Louisiana by parcel post or express. We can fill orders from December 1st 

 to May 1st. 



The plants when received will be somewha t wilted and have a hard . stunted 

 appearance, which will be disappointing to persons who have never used these 

 plants before. Regardless of appearance, they will produce the crop results. 



In fornaer seasons we have guaranteed good order delivery, but owing to 

 the congestion of all transporta iion caused by the War, we do not guarantee 

 delivery. Our responsibility ceases upon delivery to Transportation Company.
