Dutch Winter^or Hollander. 



The best Cabbage for early Spring 

 sales and for shipping. 



Through our connection with 

 the largest seed growers in Hol- 

 land, Ave have obtained a supply 

 of thegenuine seed, and offer it at 

 such a price as to bring it within 

 reach of all. The heads of this 

 valuable sort are of medium size, 

 averaging a weight of 8 pounds, 

 are very solid and deep, and of a 

 fine white color, making them en- 

 tirely distinct from any other 

 strain. Their quality is superior, 

 and they keep better than any 

 other sort, the heads being just as 

 solid and perfect when taken up 

 in the spring as when they put 

 away in the fall. No cabbage will 

 sell beside it even if offered at 

 half the price. Pkt. 5c; oz. 20c;

BUCKBEE'S GREAT DANE. For years large quantities ot Danish cabbage have been imported to our 



— leading American markets, the heads being of such solidity that the 



demand has been far in e.xcesa of the supply, always at a price far above the ruling market rate. To get at the source of this 

 supply I dispatched my European traveler direct to Denmark, and after careful inspection of the cabbage growing localities 

 came to Amack, the home of the Great Dane. I will use Mr. Torgesou's (originator) description, which, to say the least, is too 

 modest to e.vpress the sterling qualities of this great winter cabbage: "For more than twenty years I have worked in perfect- 

 ing this variety Heads are almost round as a ball, of good size, perfectly solid, very fine grained, of the best (juality. It is 

 ahead of any variety grown on this side for shipping and all general uses, and I cannot too highly reccommeud it to gardeners 

 in your land (America.)" I conirol the entire stock of this variety, and offer it at the following very low prices; Pkt. 10c; oz. 

 30c; HI b. 90c; H lb. $1.60; lb. $3.00.

TTTE LiTTPTON CABBAGE.— This fine new cabbageis accu- 

 rately described as follows by the originator, Mr. J. M. Lupton. 



"It is the result of an effort to combine in one variety the best 

 qualities of the second-early and the late sorts. It is a lit- 

 tle earlier than any one of the various strains of Flat Dutch ana 

 Drumhead, auii of alosur growth. The heads are particularly large 

 in proportion to the plant, which grows strong but does not spread 

 outmuch. The stalk is rather short; color, dark green. The qual- 

 ity fine and it is also one of the best keepers we have, and comes out 

 in the spring bright and fresh. The heads are not likely to crack 

 open. As for uniformity, it will grow more uniform and head bet- 

 ter than the late varieties." Pkt. 5c; oz. 20c; }4, lb. 75c; V4 lb. $1.25: ■ I
