CABBAGE 



STOKES SEEDS

the earlipsl 



""'^''uon"'*^"^"" {Extra Early Long Island Growr\) 



Days to maturity, 90-100. Our stock will produce an extremely early, refined type 

 of head. Because of our variety simplification program, we prefer to hold to our 

 policy of original nomenclature and not designate this as Extra-Early Jersey Wakefield, 

 although in reality that is what it is. This stock has been developed to a degree of 

 purity and early maturity that we believe is not surpassed in the pointed types. 

 Practically the entire crop can be taken off by the second cutting. This feature 

 together with the great solidness and uniformity of the head makes it a stock of great 

 importance to all growers of this type of cabbage 



CHARLESTON WAKEFIELD 



{Early Long Island Grown) 



Days to maturity, 95-lO.v The Stokes stock of Charleston Wakefield will mature 

 very much earlier than the usual strains of Charleston. Furthermore, it will produce 

 one of the rnost uniform crops of cabbage it has ever been our pleasure to ofifer. On a 

 strict reading this strain will rate over 96% with a week's earlier maturity. Our 

 Charleston will produce a head approximating pound heavier than our Early 

 Jersey Wakefield. The restrained leaf growth is a feature of the variety. Growers 

 of large Charleston acreage need to go no farther or pay more for any finer stock. If 

 any exists we do not know of it. It is making a strong return for our customers 



COPENHAGEN MARKET— VIKING 



Days to maturity, 85-95. No one questions the importance of being ahead of the 

 market even if by only three or four days. In these days of terrific competition even 

 the slightest edge often means the diflerence between making and breaking. For 

 three years our Viking Strain of Copenhagen has been a money maker for Stokes 

 customers for just that reason. It will average five days earlier even than Golden 

 Acre which we have eliminated in its favor, and it is nearly two weeks earlier than the 

 usual stocks of Copenhagen Market. The leaf growth is so restrained that plants 

 may be set from 1 2 to 14 inches apart in the row. The slight additional cost of the 

 Viking .Strain will be less than $1.00 per acre, and on a $5.00 per barrel market that 

 is quickly lost sight of. If you are not already fortunate enough to have made the 

 acquaintance of our Viking Strain do not postpone the trial for another season. It is 

 taking the big money in early Cabbage. 



COPENHAGEN MARKET— BALTIC 



Days to maturity, 95-105. This strain will be nearly two weeks later in reachmg 

 maturity than our Viking Strain. On the other hand, it is proportionately larger 

 and heavier, averaging nearly one pound per head more than the Viking. The Baltic 

 Strain will prove to be valuable as a general crop cabbage. Its uniformity of size, 

 shape and ripening are its outstanding features. Many of our customers will be 

 deeph impressed with this stock
