Buckbee's Earliest 

 Forcing 



For those who like a large thin, ex- 

 ceedingly tender leaf, and for those 

 markets' which demand a large, loose 

 cluster of leaves rather than a solid 

 head, this is one of the best varieties 

 for forcing out of doors. Plants large 

 forming a large, loose head, light yel- 

 lowish green in color. I control the 

 entire stock of this variety. Pkt. Sc. ; 

 oz. 12c.; 2 oz. 20c.; i lb. 35c.; i lb. 

 60c; lb. $1.00. 



Buckbee's 

 Ice Drumhead 



It grows rapidly, heads extremely 

 early; heads nearly as solid as cab- 

 bage. Outer leaves are first tinged 

 with brownish red, changing toward 

 the center from a golden yellow to a 

 creamy white. As palatable as beau- 

 tiful; very tender: of a sweet buttery 

 flavor and never bitter. Ready for 

 use from the time it is 3 inches across 

 until it runs to seed. I control the 

 entire stock of this variety. Pkt. 5c. ; 

 oz. 12c.; 2 oz. 20c.; i lb. 35c.; i lb.
