BUCKBEE'S FAMOUS VARIETIES 



Buckbee's Superb — Finest of all early 

 varieties and unusually good sized and 

 solid; has little tendency to run to seed. 

 Wonderfully crisp, exceptionally tender, 

 and above all delicious in flavor. As a 

 forcing variety it has no superior. Excels 

 as a family or market sort. Pkt. 5c. ; 



oz. 10c; 2 oz. 16c; } lb. 30c; J lb. 

 55c; lb. $1.0C. 

 Buckbee's Earliest Forcing — For those 

 who like a large thin, exceedingly tender 

 leaf, and for those markets which de- 

 mand a large, loose cluster of leaves 

 rather than a solid head, this is one of 

 the best varieties for forcing out of doors. 

 Plants lar^e, forming a larg", loose head; 

 light yellowish green in color. I con- 

 trol the entire stock of this variety.

groves rapidly, heads extremely 

 early; heads nearly as solid as cab- 

 bage. Outer leaves at first tinged 

 with brownish red, changing toward

 solid heads arc of bright, light green, 

 with a slight reddish tinge on the 

 edges. They have smrll indents 

 which are constantly filled with 

 dew-drops, keeping it fresh and 

 showi. g a remarkable crystalline 

 appearance. I ran confidently
