134 Maule's Prize Flat Dutch 



Heads large, round, flattened, and very firm (100 days) 



An old reliable variety. Heads are very large, heavy, solid, flat 

 on the top but deep. Leaves are a bright bluish green. Our strain 

 is low growing, with a short stem and vigorous plant growth, 

 reaching almost 3 ft. in diameter under average conditions. Heads 

 become firm and solid while still rather small so that you can 

 start to use them in late summer and continue to cut until late 

 fall. Grown principally in the northern states, where it is used 

 as a main late crop. In addition to being a home garden favorite, 

 the variety is frequently used for market, shipping, and quite 

 often also for sauerkraut. Heads attain 10 to 12 lbs. in weight 

 One of the best winter keepers. Pkt. 10$!; >/ 2 oz, 25$!; oz. 45$!. 



131 Maule's Genuine Surehead 



Widely adapted; large, heavy, thoroughly reliable (90 days) 



One of Maule's very first introductions, in 1877, this remarkable 

 cabbage was a strong factor in establishing Maule's seeds as lead- 

 ers in the industry. For 36 successive years a full catalog page 

 was devoted to Surehead. The increased popularity of small 

 headed strains has caused fewer acres to be planted to this vari- 

 ety, but anyone wishing a large, hard, somewhat flattened, 10 lb. 

 head should grow Maule's Surehead. This variety is absolutely 

 reliable, a perfect winter keeper, and still the unchallenged fa- 

 vorite of thousands of gardeners. k Pkt. 10$!; y 2 oz. 25**; oz. 45$!.

 in the open when large enough to handle. Late cabbage seed is sown in a 

 specially prepared bed in late May or early June, and the plants set out in early 

 July, IK ft. apart in rows 3 ft. apart. A packet of seed will produce about
