119 Copenhagen Market* 



The finest early cabbage. Large, round, solid heads (70 days) 



Very early, solid, uniformly round heads, 6 to 7 in. across, weighing 

 4 lbs. or more. Plants are small, cup shaped, compact, and short 

 stemmed, allowing close planting. Very crisp, tender, and of ex- 

 cellent quality. This variety is at its best when planted for an early 

 summer crop. It is by far the most popular variety for general home 

 use and early market shipments, and it is frequently on the market 

 as early as Jersey Wakefield. The larger, later cabbages are more 

 often used for sauerkraut, but Copenhagen Market is also useful for 

 that purpose, particularly where the season is too short for the late 

 kraut types. We believe Copenhagen Market to be the best cabbage 

 for summer use. Pkt. 10?!; y 2 oz. 30?!; oz. 55?!. 



110 Golden Acre* 



Dwarf plants; round, hard, solid heads (65 days) 



This is an important early cabbage, with solid, round heads 

 which grow about 6 in. in diameter and weigh about 3 lbs. each. 

 Compact, dwarf plants on short stems allow them to be set 

 quite closely. Our strain of Golden Acre is exceptionally uni- 

 form, both in size and roundness of head, and in length of grow- 

 ing season. With a high percentage of plants maturing at one 

 time the crop can be handled with maximum efficiency. This is 

 the earliest round head cabbage, very similar to Copenhagen 

 Market but earlier and smaller. Pkt. 10^; y 2 oz. 30^; oz. 55?!. 



116 All Head Early 



Firm, solid, flat heads of uniform size (85 days) 



All Head Early, one of the earliest of all large cabbages, does well 

 in a wide range of soils and climates. The deep, well-rounded 

 flattened heads are very solid and remarkably uniform in size, 

 shape, and color. They measure 8 to 9 in. across, byi to 7 in. deep, 

 and weigh 6 to 7 lbs. each. The heads may be cut before they have 

 reached full size since compactness and solidity are reached at an 

 early date. Set plants in the spring for summer use and again in 

 midsummer for winter storage. Pkt. io^; y 2 oz. 25?!; oz. 45?!. 



117 Early Flat Dutch 



Solid, short stemmed heads (90 days) 



This variety has a truly ancient lineage, and was an old standard 

 when our company was founded in 1877. The heads are mounted 

 on short stems, and have smaller, shorter cores than other vari- 

 eties. Fully developed heads measure 7 to 8 in. across, 6 in. deep, 

 and weigh as much as 5 to 8 lbs. The leaves are tightly folded, 

 crisp, and well flavored. Pkt. 10?!; y 2 oz. 25?!; oz. 45^. 



143 Mammoth Red Rock 



Largest heading red cabbage; good keeper (100 days) 



Heads are perfectly, round, very solid and heavy. They often 

 weigh as much as 8 lbs. each. The deep purplish red color con- 

 tinues in undiminished intensity to the very center of the head. 

 When sliced the cabbage presents a most attractive red and white 

 color pattern. The outer leaves of the plants are dark green with 

 red veins. This variety keeps well in storage and is often 

 10 used for pickling. Pkt. 15^; y 2 oz. 40?!; oz. 70*!. 



111 Maule's First Early * 



Earliest of the large, flat heads (80 days) 



Its plant type and its attractive head type are almost ideal for 

 every use. It is the earliest of the large, flat-head cabbages, 

 and excels all other early varieties in solidness. Its excellent qual- 

 ity and tenderness have made it a great favorite. The heads are 

 5*4 to 6 in. deep, 8 to 9 in. across, and weigh 5 to 7 lbs. This ex- 

 clusive Maule variety competes with Copenhagen Market and 

 Jersey Wakefield because so many people prefer a solid, flat head 

 to the round or pointed shapes. Pkt. 10?*; y 2 oz. 25?!; oz. 45(2. 



127 Glory of Enkhuizen 



Round solid heads of superior quality (82 days) 



A splendid, medium-early cabbage with large solid, round heads 

 8 to 9 in. across, weighing 5 to 7 lbs. each, and often more. The 

 leaves are finely ribbed, exceedingly tender, and remarkably well 

 flavored. pkt - 10 t* Vz °z- 25?!; oz. 45?!. 



141 Drumhead Savoy 



Crumpled leaf cabbage (90 days) 



Of a milder, more pleasing flavor than the regular cabbages. 

 There is a certain delicacy about this variety that appeals greatly 

 to people who dislike either the strong flavor or odor of other 

 kinds. The heads are large, heavy, compact, round, and some- 

 what flattened; the average weight is 5 lbs., although they often 

 grow much larger. Leaves are attractively wrinkled and crum- 

 pled, even into the center of the head. It is a splendid winter 

 keeper. The Drumhead is the best of the savoy cabbages, and our 

 strain is carefully selected for uniformity and mildness of flavor 



Pkt. 10?!; l/ 2 oz. 25?!; oz. 45«i.
