Copenhagen Market Cabbage 



Days to maturity, 105. Our strain of Copenhagen Market, a solid, round-headed Cabbage, will mature 

 ten days later than our Golden Acre. The head is larger, averaging about four pounds. With this stock also, 

 we handle only the originator's seed which is grown for us near the city of Copenhagen. Copenhagen Market 

 can be bought for half the price we ask for it, but in line with our pohcy of offering only the finest stocks 

 available, we feel that we would not be keeping faith with our customers if we handled that kind of seed. 

 The stock as offered will prove to be uniformlv true to type and a very valuable one from every point of view. 

 Price, delivered: Pkt. 10 cts.; oz. 35 cts.; i^lb. $1.25; lb. $5; 5 lbs. or more at $4.75 per lb."

SEEDS 



The Houser 



Days to maturity, 145. This variety has proved 

 to be one of the most popular Cabbages for the state 

 of Pennsylvania, and we recommend it generally for 

 our customers as a sort of exceptional merit. It 

 will take i\A\y 145 days for it to reach maturity. 

 Planters will, therefore, set their fields of this variety 

 earlier than for Danish Ballhead. Houser is a 

 rather large-leaved Cabbage, with a solid, round- 

 conical head. It is of most excellent quality, has a 

 very small core, and will prove a good keeper. 

 Houser is especially recommended for planters in 

 those districts where Danish Ballhead cannot be 

 grown successfully. Price, delivered: Pkt. 10 cts.; 

 oz. 50 cts.; Vilb. $1.75; lb. $6.50 



Copenhagen 

 Market 



Mammoth Red Rock 



Days to maturity, 130. Red Cabbage usually 

 commands a higher market price than white Cab- 

 bage, and although the demand is limited, it usually 

 pays to have some of the red. Our strain of Mam- 

 moth Red Rock is offered as one of the most 

 satisfactory all-round red Cabbages for conditions 

 in the Middle Atlantic States. It will be found 

 uniform, hard-headed, and of brilhant, attractive 

 market appearance. W e can recommend this seed 

 very highly. Price delivered: Pkt. 10 cts.; oz. 25 cts.; 

 i/4lb. $1 ; lb. $4.
