Maule's First Early is what is wanted for home or market. 

 Its shape, habit of growth and general aspect are well shown 

 in the illustration. It can safely be planted as close as 

 Wakefield and is a sure header. It excels Wakefield and all 

 other early cabbages in solidity of head; in fact, the flat head 

 is as hard as a stone. It is a choice market sort on account 

 of both shape and quality. It is a beautiful cabbage in ap- 

 pearance, being handsome in color and general uniformity. 



Many of our customers have cleaned off their entire crop 

 of Maule's First Early before they have started to cut Early 

 Wakefield, or Early Flat Dutch.
