The Latest Cabbage of. Them All 
ss Lhe Houser 
This excellent cabbage is in very wide 
favor, and thousands of our friends testify 
to its value. It is at least two weeks later 
than any strain of the Late Flat Dutch 
type. In solidity it is almost as hard as 
the renowned Danish Ball Head. It is 
very compact in habit of growth, the 
leaves closely surrounding and overlap- 
ping the head. The shape and appear- 
ance are shown in the illustration. 
In size the Houser cabbage will average 
about 12 pounds at maturity, and the 
heads are uniformly handsome. The 
shape is round and deep, as indicated; and 
when a head cracks or bursts it is always 
at the stem end, which does not destroy 
its use for market. 
In quality the Houser cabbage equals 
the best, being very free from the coarse 
ribs found in most late sorts. In fact, we 
would say that the Houser cabbage is very 
well bred, and in the eareful trials and 
comparative tests on our grounds, it has 
shown up excellently with all other late 
sorts. It is a strong, vigorous grower, 
with ability to withstand drought better 
than most yarieties. 
Its true merit is shown by the demand 
for it. It behaves well in the field and 
sells well in the market, and adapts itself 
to various conditions of soil and climate. 
As to its keeping qualities, in winter 
storage, we have only to say that it is per- 
fect. Indeed, it is because the Houser is 
so extremely late, maturing in 130 days, 
and is such an excellent keeper that it has 
E attained such wide popularity.

134 Maule’s 
F Prize Flat Dutch 
Well Known and Widely Gown 


















this cabbage is as widely grown as any other in 
the whole country. Continued care and critical 
| selection have secured a perfectly true stock of \ 
seed. The heads of our Prize Flat Dutch are 
very large, heavy, solid, flat on top, and ofa bluish \ 
green color, Our strain is a iow growing variety, 
) ‘ith short stem and comparatively few outer 
ives. The quality is fine and the flavor ex- 
lent, the heads being white when cut and the 
inside leaves crisp and tender. Our seed has 
al Ways been American grown, coming from the 
4 eelebrated Long Island districts, and whoever 
_|purchases Maule’s Prize Flat Dutch may be as- 
|jured of getting the best. It is everywhere a 
avorite market variety. It matures slightly 
tarlier than Prize Drumhead, producing heads in 
bout 110 days. Prize Flat Dutch is comparatively 
ree from a disposition to burst, and is one of the 
ost reliable winter keepers. We think this strain 
1 do better under partial neglect than any 
er in the world, possibly excepting Surehead.
