BUCKBEE'S GREAT DANE. 



For years large quantities of Danish Cabbage have been imported to 

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

 demand has been far in excess of the supvly, 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 Aroaek, Hie home of the Great Dane. I will use Mr Torgeson's 

 (originator) description, which, to say the least, is too modest to express the sterling qualities of this great winter Cabbage: 

 "For more than twenty years I have worked in perfecting this variety. Heads are almost round as a ball, of good size, perfectly 

 solid, very fine grained, of the best quality. It is ahead of any variety grown on this side for shipping and all general uses, 

 and [ cannot too highly recommend it to gardeners in vour land (America)." I control the entire stock of this variety, and offer 

 it at the following very low prices: Pkt. 10c: oz. 30c; 2 oz. 55c; % lb. 90c: % lb. $1.60; lb. $3 00.

THE BEST 

 SECOND EARLY. 



The best secoDd early ever introduced. So say thousands of 

 my customers from all parts of the country who have carefully 

 tested this grand variety the past three years. The whole plant 

 is finely bred: there is no suggestion of coarseness whatever, the 

 veiningof the leaves and leaf stems are particular lyfine, the whole 

 bead being perfect throughout, It has the peculiarity of heading 

 firmly at an early stage in its growth, so that the finest Cabbage, 

 though small, can be obtained long before it has attained its nat- 

 ural size. Its uniformity in shape, and large yield per acre ren- 

 der it particularly valuable to truckers, and its compact form and 

 good quality will render it the finest second early Cabbage. 

 Pkt. 5c; oz. 20c; 2 oz. 35c; H lb. 65c; ^ lb. $1.25: ; lb. $2 00. 

 Gregory's All Seasons- One of the most desirable new sorts and 

 very popular as a market gardener's Cabbage. The heads are 

 bard and solid, round, flattened on top, of very best quality, 

 aud are ready for market m arly as early as Early Summer, 

 often larger in size. Noted for its ability tostand a hot summer 

 and dry weathr r. Pkt. 3c; oz. 12c; 2oz. 23c; H lb. 40c; 

 H lb. 75c ; lb. $1.40. 

 Mammoth Red Rock— Certainly the finest and by far the best 

 new variety of r> d Cabbage on the market. The heads will 

 av«-rage over 10 pounds each, and are always of rich red color 

 inside as well as outside, while they are almost (literally) as 

 hard as rork. Try it. Pkt. 4c; oz. 12c; 2 oz. 23c; U, lb. 

 45c; H lb. 80c; lb. $1.50. 

 Improved American Savoy-Verv valuable variety, being of 

 much finer flavor and quality than the best of other cabbage. 

 Particularly adapted tor private use, where qua ity rather 

 tha~~ quantity is aesired. Grown in fall and allowed to be 

 touched by fro< t it is one of the most delicious of all vegetables. 

 Pkt. 3c; oz. 12c; 2 oz. 20c; H lb. 35c; y 2 lb. 66c; lb. $1.25. 



Dutch Winter, or Hollander 



The heads which are of medium size, average a weight of 

 eight pounds, are very solid and deep, aud of a fine white color, 

 making them entirely distinct from any other strain. Their qual- 

 ity 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 are put away in the fall. No cabbage will sell be- 

 side it even if offered at half price. Pkt 5c; oz. 20c; 2 oz. 35c; 

 U lb. 65c; y, lb. $1.25; lb. $2.00.
