New Early Express 
The earliest of all. First introduced in my 1887 Catalogue 
and pronounced by one and all the greatest addition in years to the 
Cabbage family. Produces fair-sized, marketable heads 70 DAYS 
FROM SOWING OF THE SEED. I did not think I would be 
able to offer an earlier cabbage than Etampes, but EXPRESS IS 
A FEW DAYS EARLIER THAN EVEN THIS NOW PAMOUS 
EXTRA EARLY. It does not form quite so large a head as the 
Etampes, but when it is considered that the Express forms a 
head fit for use in '70 to 80 days from the sowing of the seed, I 
think I have the pleasure of recommending to my customers the 
MOST IMPORTANT ADDITION MADE IN YEARS TO THE 
CABBAGE FAMILY. Im quality it is A No.1; hascomparatively 
few loose leaves, and almost every pliant forms a fine head every 
time. Like the Etampes, it holds its head admirably, and as it 
can be planted so close together, yields a very large crop. There 
are many cabbages called “ earliest ” listed by other seedsmen, but 
I venture to say that EXPRESS WILL DISCOUNT THEM ALL. 
Packet, 10 cents; oumce, 30 cents; 4 pound, $1.00; pound, $3.00.

solidity and compactness are unsurpassed. Its short, 
compact growth permits its being planted close 
in rows, so, although the heads are much 
larger than Early Summer, as many plants 
can be set to the acre. It is a remarkably 
sure header, and for a market crop is 
one of the most profitable varieties in 
existence. Maule’s Midsummer is 
very similar, in many respects, to 
the All Seasons lately introduced 
by Mr. Gregory, and comes from 
very near the same source on 
Long Island. Plant Express fo1 
early, Midsummer for Summer, 
and Surehead or Prize Drum- 
head for winter, and you will 
haveasuccession of fine Cabbage 
all the year round, and the finest 
j heads, both as to solidity and

Hz your fortune to raise. Packet,

Mammoth Red R 
This is the largest and hardiest 
eading red cabbage in cultivation. 
Successful Long Island market gar- 
deners will raise no other kind of red 
cabbage, for they consider this the 
est o¥ all. The heads frequently 
verage 12 pounds each, and is a very 
sure cropper. If you want as fine red 
- cabbage as you ever saw, you must 
sow Red Rock, for it absolutely leads 
ef every other red sort, and I know you 
ri will be pleased with it. True seed 
scarce, consequently Red Rock is still 
very high in price. Pkt. 10c.; 02. 60c.
