CABBAGE. (Late Varieties) 



Dreer's Selected Late Flat Dutch. (See cut.) This is 

 the result of many years' careful selection, and the finest 

 strain of Late Flat Dutch Cabbage on the market. Heads 

 are flat, and remarkably large, even, very solid, and of fine 

 texture; stems short and the quality of the Cabbage very fine. 

 It is a sure-heading sort, as nearly every plant can be de- 

 pended upon to produce a fine, large head. It is also a good 

 keeper. Market gardeners and farmers who grow for market 

 are using this variety very largely, and report satisfactory and 

 profitable crops. Pkt., 10 cts. ; oz., 30 cts. ; i lb., $1.00. 



Lupton. A fine winter variety of excellent quality and dis- 

 tinct character; a little earlier than the Flat Dutch, but will 

 maintain shape and solidity for storing. It originated on Long 

 Island with our Cabbage seed grower, and is a strong, healthy 

 variety and a reliable header. Pkt., 10 cts.; oz,, 30 cts.; ilb., 

 11.00. 



Surehead. This is a good strain of Late Flat Dutch, having 

 great reliability for heading. The heads grow large, and are 

 of good texture. It is also a good keeping variety. Pkt., 5 

 cts.; oz.,25 cts.; 1 lb., 80 cts. 



Qolden Sugar Winter. This excellent variety is entirely 

 distinct in character and color, makes a very hard head and 

 has a short stem ; its special feature is the golden color after 

 being put up, which makes it very attractive compared to the 

 ash-gray color usual among winter Cabbages. This variety is 

 medium late, is perfectly solid at maturity, and does not 

 crack. Color of foliage dark green, looking very much like 

 an early sort. Pkt., 10 cts.; oz., 30 cts.; 1 lb., $1.00. 



Danish Ball Head {Hollander). This extra hard-heading 

 variety of Cabbage originated in Denmark. It is the medium- 

 sized, hard white Cabbage that is received from abroad dur- 

 ing the early spring months, and even after the long journey 

 arrives in splendid condition. It is a medium or late variety, 

 but is used mostly as winter Cabbage. Pkt., 10 cts. ; oz., 30 

 cts.; \Vo., $1.00. 



CABBAGB PLANTS. (See page 51.)

 planted by growers who make a specialty of shipping cabbage,

 large size and heavy weight. They are solid, of good quality 

 and texlme, and have very few loose leaves, allowing of 

 planting closely in the field. Pkt., 5 cts. ; oz., 25 cts.; \ lb.,
