Johnson & Stokes' Quick^Cash Cabbage is a cross between our Johnson & Stokes' Earliest 

 and Early Spring, made and successfully bred for us by one of the largest cabbage growers of Long 

 Island. It is fully as early as the celebrated Johnson & Stokes' Earliest. Some growers who tested 

 it the past season claim it is even earlier than that wonderful variety. It has an advantage, however, 

 in being a round or flat-headed cabbage, which type is generally preferred to pointed heads. It grows to 

 good size for so early a variety. The stem is short, leaves finely veined, heads very solid, with few outer 

 leaves. It has the peculiarity of heading firmly at a very early stage of growth, so that cabbage of 

 the finest edible and market quality can be obtained long before it has reached its mature size. These 

 advantages, together with its large yield per acre, make it the most profitable and desirable early cab- 

 bage that can be grown for either the market or home garden. Prices for 1904: Per pkt., 15c. ; oz., 60c.; 

 i lb., §2.00; lb., $6.50. 



WHAT CABBAGE GROWERS SAY OF JOHNSON & STOKES' QUICK-GASH 



EARLIEST OF ALL 



W. H. Erard, Comstock, Mich., July 13, 1903, writes: 

 "Every plant of your new cabbage (J. & S. Quick-Cash) 

 made a good-sized solid head, as hard as a rock, quality most 

 excellent and earliest of all." 



STANDS FOR WEEKS WITHOUT BURSTING 



E. S. Shaffer, Moline, 111., August 25, 1903, writes : 

 "Your new cabbage (J. & S. Quick-Cash) grown side by side 

 with four other extra early kinds, has beat them all in earli- 

 ness and whiteness of fruit and in solidity of head. After 

 apparently being fully matured it stands for weeks without 

 bursting ; it even grows more solid, crisp and tender the 

 longer it stands." 



EVERY HEAD A PICTURE OF BEAUTY 



Wm. Wincott, of Suffolk County Horticultural Associa- 

 tion, Babylon, N. Y., July 27, 1903, writes: "I hardly know 

 how to describe your new cabbage (J. & S. Quick-Cash). It 

 is the finest and earliest I ever saw. Heads are very large 

 and the very best quality. Every head is a perfect picture 

 of beauty." 



THE FINEST EARLY SHIPPER 



Wilson Turner, Greeley, Col., July 24, 1903, writes : "Your 

 new cabbage (J. & S. Quick-Cash) is a perfect wonder in 

 earliness, fine quality and solidity. It will be the finest early 

 shipper." 



SELLS AT HIGH PRICES 



John Herrjian, Groesback, Ohio, August 5, 1903, writes : 

 " From the one packet of your new cabbage sent me { J. & S. 

 Quick-Cash) I raised 340 fine heads for market, and sold at 

 high prices. I found it earlier and more solid than any other 

 cabbt^e I ever raised." 



A WEEK EARLIER THAN ANY OTHER 



Chas. G. Addison, Springfield, Md., July 20, 1903, writes: 

 "I have tested your new cabbage (J. & S. Quick-Cash ) impar- 

 tially with my favorite early varieties, and found that from 

 the start it took the lead of all others and held it to the end. 

 They are at least a week earlier than any otlier, and are re- 

 markable for their solidity and sure heading qualities." 



LARGE HEADS IN TWO MONTHS 



Wm. W. Foust, Barnegat, N. J., August 14, 1903, writes: 

 "Your new cabbage (J. & S. Quick-Cash) was the earliest I 

 ever raised. Small plants set out the middle of April pro- 

 duced large solid heads the 15th of June. I reserved some of 

 the seeds to sow in Fall to Winter over in cold frames, and I 

 believe I can get cabbage middle of next May." 



NOT BOTHERED BY WORMS 



B. Marple, Canonsburg, Pa., August 4, 1903, writes: 

 " Your new cabbage (J. & S. Quick-Cash) came extra early, 

 with fine, large, very solid round heads, slightly fiat. It grows 

 very close and compact, and was not bothered any by worms." 



EARLIEST OF SIX EXTRA EARLY SORTS 



R. A. Calvin, Lawrence, Mich., August 12, 1903, writes: 

 " I planted your New Early Cabbage (J. & S. Quick-Cash) this 

 season at the same time with six other extra early varieties, 

 and I had yours in the market ahead of all the rest. It was 

 very crisp, and more solid at the core than the others." 



THE FIRST TO CUT 



George W. Cook, Cable, Pa., July 17, 1903, writes: "I 

 am decidedly pleased with your new cabbage (J. & S. Quick- 

 Cash). It is "the earliest of all the early kinds, being the first 

 I cut this year and by far the handsomest,"
