 of the Autumn King is the peculiarly crimped 

 leaves, which enables it to be distinguished 



anywhere 10

 variety of Early Jersey Wakefield but not as 

 early as the original stock. The pointed-head

 puted lead as the best extra-early pointed-head 

 Cabbage, and is more largely grown than all 



other first-early Cabbages combined 10

 heading Cabbage in existence. Entirely free from 

 coarse veins or leaves. Unexcelled for the home
