 vigorous, and disease resistant. They bear the bulk of the crop 

 within 75 days from date of planting, the first picking being 

 generally ready in sixty days. The pods average 6 inches long, by 

 I inches wide, are thick through, of pleasing light green color, very

Wong Bok Chinese 

 Cabbage 



222 It really is not a cabbage but a Mus- 

 tard, forming a compact, elongated, 

 tightly folded head. Weigh from 5 to 8 

 lbs. and are good all the way through. 

 Delicious served as a salad with a 

 French dressing, or like Cole Slaw, with 

 Mayonnaise. The green portion of the 

 leaves may also be served like Spinach, 

 while the heavy midribs are very pala- 

 table like Swiss Chard, or Asparagus. 

 Wong Bok is entirely self folding and 

 the heads need no tying up or blanch- 

 ing of any kind. Should not be sown 

 before August 1 . Pkt. , 1 cts. ; J oz., 30 

 cts.; oz., 50cts.; i lb., $1.50. 



Dry -Weather 

 Cauliflower 



256 A fine variety of Cauliflower, especially 

 adapted for growing in the open ground 

 in sections subjected to long, dry sea- 

 sons, as it will grow well and produce 

 the finest heads in spite of the lack of 

 moisture, which is required by other 

 sorts. The heads grow to a large size, 

 are very solid, pure white and of deli- 

 cious flavor. It is not suited for forcing 

 or growing under glass, but it will prove 

 valuable in the Southern States, where 

 the climate is hot and where long seasons 

 of dry weather are experienced. Pkt., 

 25 cts.; \ oz., $1.75; \ oz., $3.00; 

 oz., $5.50. 



Mary Washington Asparagus 



Golden Acre Cabbage 



204 This excellent new variety is the earliest round headed 

 Cabbage. It will mature at least 7 days ahead of the earliest 

 strains of Jersey Wakefield, considered the standard Early of 

 the country. The heads of Golden Acre cabbage are perfectly 

 round, firm, and of exceptionally fine texture, heavy mid-ribs 

 being entirely absent. They average in weight about 4 pounds 

 and produce very few outer leaves, permitting close planting 

 in the row. A valuable addition to the list of fine Cabbages 

 Pkt.,' 20 cts.; J oz., 80 cts.; oz., $1.50; i lb., $4.00.
