VAKEFIELD 
WED “g 
plants are set out in the ground. 
PLANT AT LEAST THREE SORTS—EARLY, SECOND EARLY and LATE 
EXTRA EARLY and EARLY VARIETIES 
254 CHARLESTON WAKEFIELD 
The pointed-head Cabbages are of ex- 
cellent quality, quite free from the 
coarse rankness so commonly associated 
with Cabbage. Henderson’s Charleston 
Wakefield is larger, but fully equal in 
quality to any of its class and admirably 
suited to succeed the very early sorts. 
Ready 68 days from the setting out of 
the plants. 
Price, pkt., 10c; oz., 60c; 14 Ib., $1.80. 
269 GOLDEN ACRE 
259 
262 
Golden Acre Cabbage is an early round- 
headed variety resembling Early Market 
in shape and type, but is smaller. It will 
remain on the field for a long time without 
bursting. Season 64 days. 
Price, pkt., 15e; oz., 75¢; 14 Ib., $2.25. 
EARLYKROP 
One of the earliest round-headed Cab- 
bages on the market. It finishes with 
the Earliest Wakefield type; but unlike 
that type, it remains in perfect condition 
on the field for a long time without 
bursting or bolting to seed. This is a 
very desirable quality for the home 
gardener who wants his crop to extend 
over a long period of time. Season 64 days. 
Price, pkt., 15c; oz., 75c; 14 Ib., $2.25. 
EARLY MARKET 
The plant is small, with short stem, and 
few outer leaves. These have the ex- 
cellent habit of curving inward, thus 
providing protection to the head. 
For home use its remarkably fine 
quality. and tenderness will be greatly 
appreciated. There is an entire absence 
of coarse veins and leaves, and it has 
the quality peculiar to some of the best 
sorts of hardening the head before it 
has attained its full size. Season 64 days. 
Price, pkt., 15c; oz., 75c; 14 Ib., $2.25. 
260 EARLY JERSEY 
WAKEFIELD 
The Best First-Early, Pointed- 
Head Cabbage 
The heads are pyramidal in shape, having a 
- blunted or rounded peak. It is beyond question 
the best variety for spring and early summer in 
the private garden. Its first appearance brings a 
welcome change from the hard- headed winter 
sorts, tor Early Jersey Wakefield is attractive 
in appearance and essentially good in quality. 
Season 62 days from plant eecune: 
Price, pkt., 10c; 0z., 60c; 14 lb., $1.80. 
273 PREMIER 
It is the earliest of all the round-headed varieties, 
fully 3 to 4 days earlier than Earlykrop. The 
head is a trifle smaller, the plant is more com- 
pact; it can therefore be planted closer than other 
sorts, so that quality cabbage can be grown in 
even the smallest garden. The heads are very 
firm, and the quality is delicious, tender and 
succulent. Season 60 days. 
Price, pkt., 25c; oz., $1.00; 14 Ib., $3.00. 
“Yellows” Resistant Varieties 
275 RESISTANT GOLDEN ACRE 
(Extra Early) 
This strain has proven. highly resistant to 
*‘vellows” and has made it. possible for growers 
to produce a good crop of early Cabbage in 
many areas infested with this disease. The heads 
closely resemble our strain of regular Golden 
Acre, but mature a day or two later. 
Price, pkt., 25¢; oz., $1.00; 1% Ib., $3.00. 
263 MARION MARKET 
(Second Early) 
One of the first resistant strains to be developed. 
Marion Market has proven very profitable for 
many growers because of its dependability and 
heavy yields, even on yellows infected soil. The 
plants and heads are larger than Copenhagen 
Market. Season 75 days. 
Price, pkt., 15c; 0z., 80c; 14 Ib., $2.40. 
277 WISCONSIN HOLLANDER 
No. 8 (Late)

very hardy. The heads are large, practically 
round and solid. Season 105 days. 
Price, pkt., 15c; oz., 85c; 14 Ib., $2.55.
