EARLY AND MEDIUM CABBAGES. 



MAULE'S EARLY EL,AT DUTCH.- 



old variety, but of unabated popularity 

 with a large number of my customers. 

 The type is so pronounced and the name 

 so widely known that it wou'd be hard '" 

 displace it, with even a better soil il 

 such could be found. It continue', to 

 ceed everywhere. It is an ex( el- 

 lent second early cabbage, pi 



diicing large, solid heads of /S^ 

 uniform shape, flattened on top, 

 as shown in the illustration, and 

 always makings handsome <ip- 

 pearance. It is well adapted to 

 a wide range of climatic condi- 

 tions, but seems particuKii Iv 

 suited to the .'<outh, as it li is 

 strong heat resisting qualitit^

EARLY SUMMER. 



„. This variety matures 



W%% *®" days or two weeks 



DEEP HEAC 



after Wakefield, with heads almost double the size of that verv earlv sort, 

 one of the best of the large early cabbages, of round, flattened form and very 

 pact and solid. It is a valuable variety for the market gardener. One poi 

 favor of this cabbage is that on ^ 



account of its short outer leaves ,««,<fl^nn^lf^^-™s,'^ ' ^ 



it can be planted almost as '— - "^"^ (^'s^iok.m 



closely as the \\'akefield, or 



from 11,000 to 12.000 plants to 



the acre. The shape of this 



cabbage is remarkably uni- 

 form. I offer strictly first- 

 class Long Island grown 



seed. Pkt., Sets.; oz., •20cts.; 



% lb., 60cts.; lb.. 52.00. 



SUCCESSION. — A good 



second early cabbage, com- 

 ing in a few davs later than 



Early Summer. II is much 



larger than that variety. It 



is suited to both amateur and 



market gardeners, as it is 



adapted alike to late spring, 



summer and autumn, and is 



a good keeper. Quality fine.

 J 2 Steniined. — Many people who grow 

 . M "tily one variety of cabbage, prefer the 

 i* Brunswick to all others, as it is most 

 I^ excellent for early or late. It is always 

 5* a reliable header, and under ordinary 

 i^ cultivation will produce heads welgh- 

 Jj« ingl5to20 pounds. In quality it is al- 

 Ij; together desirable, while it is unques- 



!0 tionably theearliest of all thelarge.hard 

 2 heading varieties of Drumhead cab- 

 bage. I have long taken pride in fur- 

 jj nishing my customers with an extra 

 * strain of .short Stemmed Brunswick 

 5^ cabbage seed, and for this reason my 

 iu prices are a little higher than for the or- 

 is dinary strains of Brunswick generally 



* sold, but the seed which I offer is well 

 worth the slightly higher price. Pkt

 MAULE'S MIDSUMMER. 



S —Ready nearly as soon as Earlv 

 Summer, and at the same time pro- 

 duces much larger heads, which for 

 solidity are unsurpassed. Its com- 

 pactness of growth permits close 

 iB planting, and as many plants may be 

 JiJ set to the acre as of the apparently 

 ;« smaller Early .Sumiuer. Midsum- 

 ,1, iner cabbage is one of my favorites, 

 !» and I have no hesitation in praising 

 I* it. It is a remarkably sure header, 

 J and for a summer market crop is 

 :'^one of the most profitable varieties 

 5 in existence. This cabbage is very 

 ; ! similar to Mr. Gregory's .\11 Seasons, 

 ; and possesses the same merits as 

 ; ; that variety; in fact, it originated 

 ',_ near the same spot on I^ong Island. 

 ; I I particularly recommend Midsuin- 

 ! mer for domestic use and for the 

 ■'\ market during all that portion of 

 I the year between .luiie and October, 

 " . as it will give excellent satisfaction 

 '•• in warm weather in regard to solld- 

 °. I ity and quality, and In all other re- 

 ' ' spects that go towards making an 

 '\ P exceptionally fine summer cabbage.
