The All Year Round Large Flat Head Cabbage

 climate, and is well worthy of recognition as a standard American 

 sort. It is a money maker for gardeners, and a very desirable sort 

 in every garden. It is the earliest of large cabbages, being ready 

 for the table or market in about 90 days. All Head Early in size of 

 heads is one-third larger than Early Summer or Copenhagen Market. 

 The deep, flat heads are remarkably uniform in shape, size and color. 

 Good quality and tenderness are marked features. The compact 

 habit of growth of All Head Early cabbage renders close planting 

 feasible. A good early spring, summer or winter sort.

Remarkably Hard and Solid 



One of the best of the early sorts, very 

 hardy, with a very hard pointed head 

 and a sure cropper. Owing to its com- 

 pact and upright habit of growth and 

 peculiar texture of Its rather short and 

 thick, dark green leaves, the variety 

 resists cold wet, and Insect pests excep- 

 tionally well. The solid heads mature 

 in 85 days and are very closely wrapped, 

 sharply conical, of good quality and 

 keep very well. This variety is exten- 

 sively usfd for the home garden. It is 

 sometimes planted late and then makes 

 a desirable winter cabbage.
