 Channel coast. Probably under cultivation for 10,000 years.

Extra- early Jersey Wakefield. 



Days to maturity, 90. Originally brought from 

 New Jersey to Long Island by Brill in 1871. 

 The head of Jersey Wakefield is very solid, 

 comparatively small and running to rather 

 a small point at the top. The quality is_ ex- 

 cellent but, as is the case with most quick- I 

 maturing vegetables, it will not hold long 

 after attaining its growth and is likely to break / 

 open after about two weeks. The strain ' 

 offered is highly recommended and may be 

 relied upon by the most critical planters. 

 Price, pkt. 10 cts., oz. 35 cts., V4lb. $1.10, 

 lb. $4.00, 5 lbs. $18.00, delivered. 



Succession or All Seasons. 



turity, 110- Introduced in 1888. A varietj^ 

 remarkable for its resistance to hot sun and 

 dry weather. The fact that it remains two to 

 three weeks without breaking also recommends it 

 as an important variety. It may be sown either 

 as a late Cabbage or for fall use. The heads are 

 round but slightly flattened. Price, pkt. 10 cts., 

 oz. 30 cts., y4lb. $1.00, lb. $3.50,5 lbs. $15.00, 

 delivered. 



Late Flat Dutch. 



Days to maturity, 130. 

 A variety maturing nearly 

 a month later than Early Flat Dutch and having 

 proved to be most satisfactory when brought to 

 its full development in November. This will be 

 found to be an attractive variety of good quality. 

 The head is large, hard, and slightly rounded. 

 Price, pkt. 10 cts., oz. 30 cts., y^h. $1.00, lb. $3.50, 

 5 lbs. $15.00, delivered. 



American Savoy. StLmeiy ?M typl^p^^^^^^ 



ably originating in England. Savoy Cabbage was 

 offered here in 1839, along with twenty-three 

 other varieties. The stock we offer will prove to be 

 true, the wrinkled savoyed leaves being uniform 

 and of a deep green color. Market gardeners will 

 find our stock dependable. Price, pkt. 10 cts., 

 oz. 35 cts., V4lb. $1.10, lb. $4.00, 5 lbs. $18.00, 

 delivered. 



Danish Ballhead or Hollander. 



Days to maturity, 120. A variety of Danish 

 origin listed by Johnson & Stokes in 1889 as 

 Danish Ballhead. The fact that in 1897 a Cabbage 

 known as Hollander . or German Export was 

 offered by Johnson & Stokes seems to prove that 

 this was a variety widely known and cultivated 

 over northern Europe. At the present time the 

 names Danish Ballhead and Hollander are 

 synonymous. This variety is now considered the 

 standard Cabbage for storage purposes. The 

 head is nearly round, solid, and of good quality. 

 Its adaptability to soil conditions has no, doubt 

 added to its popularity. Price, pkt. 10 cts., oz. 

 30 cts., V4lb. $1.00, lb. $3.50, 5 lbs. $15.00, 

 delivered. 



Charleston or Large Wakefield 



Charleston or Large Wakefield. 



Days to maturity, 95. A selection of the large heads 

 from Early Jersey Wakefield. The head of Charles- 

 ton is considerably larger than Jersey Wakefield 

 and for this reason is more usually grown for com- 

 mercial purposes than the latter. The five extra 

 days before it reaches maturity are in one way 

 a handicap. Given the same number of days the 

 Charleston Wakefield will produce a larger head 

 than Extra-early Jersey Wakefield. The general 

 shape of the head is thicker through and not so 

 sharply pointed. Price, pkt. 10 cts., oz. 35 cts., 

 y^h. $1.10, lb. $4.00, 5 lbs. $18.00, delivered. 



Red Danish Stonehead. J^^^ f^o.^A 



Danish Cabbage very similar to Danish Ballhead 

 except for its red color. This Cabbage is almost 

 identical in every respect with Danish Ballhead 

 except in its color. The head is very solid and 

 the rich red color extends farther into the center 

 of the head. Price, pkt. 10 cts., oz. 40 cts., V^lb. 

 $1.25, lb. $4.00, 5 lbs. $18.00, delivered. 



PE-TSAI or CHINESE CABBAGE 

 Wong Bok 



Days to maturity, 115. It was 

 brought from China, where it has 

 been grown extensively for over forty centuries. 

 Wong Bok is one of the most desirable of the 

 many available strains. Pe-Tsai is essentially a 

 cool-season vegetable and should not be matured 

 during the midsummer months. It may be eaten 

 raw as a salad or cole slaw, or it may be cooked 

 and served as a hot vegetable. Price, pkt. 10 cts., 

 oz. 30 cts., y4lb. $1.00, lb. $3.50, 5 lbs. $13.00, 

 delivered.
