New Cabbage 
Miniature Marrow. 
fi Small, Extra Early of Delicious 
Quality. ; 
EOPLE who never cared for 
Cabbage before are infatu- 
ated with the table qualities of 
this unique little variety, the 
flavor being as mild and deli- 
cious as thatofBrusselsSprouts, 
while the tenderness of the fine- 
grained heads is only equalled 
by the frost-touched Savoy. The 
plants grow scarcely larger 
than a good-sized Lettuce, sel- 
dom spreading over a foot of 
ground, enabling them to be 
closely planted; the heads are 
of a rounded, cone shape, 5 to 6 
inches in diameter, and the 
leaves comprising the head are 
of unusually fine texture. We 
do not suppose this variety 
will ever be profitable to grow 
for market, where size is a sell- 
eee) ing point, but for the home gar- 
= — ==! den, where delicate quality is 
appreciated, we predict this little gem will be grown every year where once used. It grows and heads quickly and may be 
had about as early as Jersey Wakefield, and two or three successive sowings, at intervals of a month, would enable a supply 
of this delicious Cabbage to be enjoyed during summer and fall. (See cut.) Price, 15c. pkt., $1.00 oz., $3.00 % Ib.

Henderson S Early Summer Cabbage. “We tried some of your Miniature Marrow Cabbage last season, and 
The Best SEGOND Early Gabbage. Large, Round, Flat Heads, find it everything you claim for it. It was wonderfully tender and of 
8 to 10 Ibs Each delicate flavor even during the hot, dry weather; the little heads are just 
; the right size for boiling.’’-—-WM. G. BROWN, Springfield, Mass. 
THis peerless variety was named and introduced by us 
years ago; it is widely known and largely grown. As 
an ideal second early Cabbage it still holds the 
palm. It forms large, flat, round, solid heads, 
weighing usually 8 to 10 lbs. each, though with 
rich cultivation it often gives 10 to 12-1b. heads. 
The quality is excellent, tender and sweet. It 
comes in about ten days later than Early Jer- 
sey Wakefield, but is more than double the size. 
We exercise the greatest care every year in 
breeding and selecting this variety for seed pur- 
poses, so that Henderson’s Early Summer of to- 
day will be found a far better sort than when we 
originally offered it. (See cut.) Price, 10c.
