Cl'LTUre. -I'or the earliest supply, seed may be sown in September and the plants wintered over in coldframes, or seed started in hot- 

 beds or coldframes early m the sprnig. For the fall crop, the seed should be sown early in June and the voun? plants transplanted to the 

 rows durmg the latter part of July. In planting, be sure to set the young plants down' to the first leaves'. If^it is desirable to economize 

 space, lettuce or radish may be sown between the rows, as they will be out of the way before the Cabbage needs the room. 



One ounce oJ seed will sow 300 feet of drill; 2 ounces sown thinly should provide plants enough for 1 acre 



Stokes' Earliest. ^^ji^^! Market-Gardeners' No. 2. 



Jersey Wakefield. 



and hardest 



heading of all first-early Cabbages. For 



over twenty years this splendid Cabbage 

 has been a leader. It has steadily grown 

 in favor and is today the standby of 

 many of my best friends. It is ten days 

 earlier than Early Jersey Wakefield, and 

 is unsurpassed in fine quality, great 

 beaut}- and vigor of growth. With it you 

 can command the earh' market in 3-our 

 neighborhood. The heads are slightly 

 conical, large, solid and remarkably uni- 

 form. Pht. lo cts., oz. 35 cts., I4\b. $i,

Stokes* Selected Early 



W h i 1 e 

 this sort 



is not so earl}' as Stokes' Earliest, it will 

 be found to be the very best conical- 

 headed sort to come in immediately after 

 it. It heads up remarkably hard and 

 solid, with but few outside leaves, which 

 are unusually thick and heavy, enabling 

 it to stand cold weather without injury 

 when carried through the winter either 

 in the open ground in the South or in 

 coldframes in the North. Pkt. 10 cts., 

 oz. 30 cts., Klb. 85 cts., lb. $3. 



In mar- 

 k e t s 



where a flat head is preferred to a pointed 

 Cabbage, the Quick Cash will fill the bill. 

 It is fully as early as the Early Jersey Wakefield, and grows to a 

 good size for so early a sort. The stem is short, heads very solid, 

 with a few outer leaves. It has the peculiarity of heading firmly 

 at a very early stage of growth, so that a Cabbage of the finest 

 eating and market quality can be obtained long before it has reached 

 its maturity. Owing to the few outer leaves, they can be set close, so 

 that the yield is very large. Pkt. loc, 02. 40c., }i\h. $1, lb. $3.50. 



Stokes* Quick Cash. 



A large, flat-headed Cabbage, coming 

 in shortly after the Wakefield. This is a 

 most e.vcellent Cabbage, for which we 

 have had a very heavy demand for years. 

 It is one of the earli'est large Cabbages 

 on the list; very compact, hardy, and 

 answers an e.xcellent purpose either for 

 summer or winter use. It is fully a week 

 earlier than tlie Early Summer. 'Pkt. loc,

Stokes' Selected Early Jersey Wakefield Cabbage 



Stokes* Special All 

 Head Early. 



I have a 

 specially 

 selected strain of Long Island- 

 grown All-Head Early Cab- 

 bage which is one of the best 

 quite early Cabbages on the 

 list. The deep, flat heads are 

 remarkably solid and very uni- 

 form in color, form and size. 

 The heads are quite free from 

 spreading leaves, which ena- 

 bles them to be planted close 

 together, and the rows closer 

 together than almost any other 

 Cabbage of this class. Pkt. 10
