_| § MAULE’S GENUINE SUREHEAD.—Pretended rivals of the cele- 
brated Surehead cabbage may be offered to the public from time to 
time, but I do not think any one of them is likely to outstrip Surehead 
| in the great race. The new comers finally get into their true places, 
|} and usually take a back seat. 
| Iwatch with great care all the new cabbages, and test them at Briar 
Crest and Panmure, and am often willing to-admit that their claims 
| are partially or locally true; but I still think that Surehead for main 
urge my customers to get the genuine headquarters stock, and to be 
|) satisfied with nothing else. No other cabbage in America to-day has 
all the merits of Maule’s Genuine Surehead, nor as many merits, 
) Possibly excepting the new Lupton. (See Specialties.) 
People who have never sown Maule’s Surehead do not know what the 
best cabnage is; do not know that the characteristic features of the best 
i American cabbages can be and have been blended into a Single type by 
Skillful hybridizing. This was done nearly thirty years ago by an 
expert market gardener, the result is a cabbage better than its parents. 
The Surehead is the greatest and most profitable cabbage ever intro- 
» duced, that has, for such a long term of years, maintained so wide a 
» popularity. This is proved by my long experience with it, and by the 

crop will do the most good for the most people, and for the 27th time I |

testimony of over 100,000 planters, in all sections of the country, repre- 
senting all conditions of soil, elevation, climate and cultural treatment. 
I can truthfully repeat the statements made in former catalogues, that 
while no serious complaints, even in isolated cases, have ever been 
made against this justly celebrated and popular cabbage, thousands of 
tongues and pens are ready to tell of its worth. Hence, I say again, if 
| you want a cabbage all head and always sure to head, you will find it in 
| Maule’s Genuine Surehead. 
| Maule’s Surehead is a cabbage of the general type of Prize Flat Dutch 
|and Prize Drumhead, with the same large, deep, somewhat flattened 
| head, and the same high qualities; but somewhat finer in texture and 
with less spread of leaves. It is a late variety, with head as large as 
Flat Dutch. It is almost absolutely uniform in growth. The heads are 

firm and hard, and the cabbage keeps well, is a splendid shipper, 
|}and is a variety certain to give satisfaction for home use in winter. 
I am sure that as now perfected Maule’s Surehead has no superior as 
a commercial cabbage. 
| This cabbage always justifies its name, always heads, even when 
| other kinds fail. It may be planted somewhat closer in the field than 
| other large, late varieties; for though it forms heads of equal weight, it 
has fewer spreading outside leaves. 
Packet, 10 cents; ounce, 25 cents; quarter-pouwnd, 75 cents; pound, $2.50.
