Wakeiield Gabbage.| 
The Best FIRST Early. 
This Cabbage, though intro- 
duced years ago by the late Peter 
Henderson, still holds its undis- | 
puted lead as the best extra early | 
variety in cultivation, and is more 
largely grown than all other 
First Early Cabbages combined. 
It is the good, old reliable, al- 
ways depended upon for its uni- 
formity in earliness and crop. 
Among its merits may also be 
mentioned its large size of head 
for so early a variety and the 
small outside foliage, allowing it 
tobeclosely planted; theheads are 
pyramidal in shape, having a 
blunted or rounded peak. We be- 
lieve our selected stock has no 
equal. (See cut.) Price, 5c. pkt.,

“Had Peter Henderson done nothing else but introduce 
the Early Wakefield Cabbage, it would be a lasting monu- 
Inent to hisname. No better variety is in cultivation to-day 
among the early kinds.” —CoUNTRY GENTLEMAN.

_ THE BEST LARGE EARLY CABBAGE. 
For some years past customers have requested 
us to procure for them, if possible, a Cabbage 
which had all the characteristics of the Early 
Jersey Wakefield, but of a greater size. With 
this in view, we carefully selected from one of 
our best stocks of Wakefield a larger type, which 
is now so fixed in its character that we can offer 
it with confidence to those desiring a Cabbage 
of this kind. This selection will average about 
50 per cent. larger in size than the old type of 
Wakefield, and is only a few days later.

‘‘Charleston Wakefield cannot be beat for solid heading. 
Last spring I sold a lot to a grocer and he said they were 
the best Cabbages he handled.”

The only Extra Early Round Flat-Headed Gabbage. 
Every Head as uniform as if moulded, and remarkably solid even when young. 
Few and small outside leaves. Small Veins. Fine Texture and Delicate Flavor. 
Its great value lies in its being a First Early FLAT Cabbage, a type much 
preferred over pointed heads by many people. It is of the Early Summer 
type, but about one-fifth smaller, and has only four to five outside leaves, and 
these so small that it may be planted twenty-one inches apart, 13,500 to the 
acre. Remembering that this isa first early flat variety, the shape that is so 
popular on all markets, and that it is ready fully a week earlier than any 
sort like it, its value can be readily appreciated. The stem is short, making 
almost the whole plant edible. It is finely bred, the veining of the leaves 
being particularly fine. There is no Cabbage we know of having a more solid 
head ; it has also the peculiarity of heading firmly at an early stage in its 
growth, so that the finest Cabbage, though small, can be obtained long before 
it has attained its mature size. Its shape and large yield per acre make it 
particularly valuable for truckers, and its good quality will render it the 
finest early Cabbage for private gardens. (See cut.)
