Buckbee's "FjiU of Life" CABBAGE 



= FOR FALL PLANTING == 



^' This has been oue ol" my leading SPECIALTIES for maay years and all my 

 Cabbage Seeds are grown from Choicest Selected Stocks under my own person- 

 al supervision and inspection. My stocks have reached such a lush point of 

 merit that it is a household word everywhere that "Buckbee's Cabbage Seed" 

 is the most reliable and produces more good, marketable heads per acre than 

 any offered, and from the number of unsolicited testimonials I am constantly re- 

 ceiving gives me every reason to believe that the time I personally spend in my 

 Cabbage fields is truly appreciated by many thousands of my customers. 



For Fall and early Spring planting in the Southern Slates Cabbage can be 

 sown from the middle of September (but not before) to the first of January. 

 November and December sowings should be made in cold-frames or hot-beds to 

 give slight protection during the Winter. Cabbage requires good rich soil 

 heavily manured and must have frequent and deep cultivation. 



Buekbee's New Race Horse. The earliest and hardest heading Cabbage in 

 cultivation. Ready to use in sixty days from time of planting. Thousands 

 of our customers — principally gardeners — depend absolutely upon this grand 

 acquisition for their entire extra early crops. Headsareof good size weighing 

 from eight to thirteen pounds; have but few outside leaves and therefore 

 mav be planted verv close toarether. Prices postpaid — Pkt. 5c. ; oz. 20c. ■ 2oz.

From good seeds only can good crops be grown; nothing should induce yon to risk plant- 

 ing so-called "Cheap Seeds." We always aim to give value received in. Fresh, High-Grade, 

 Tested, Reliable. Full of Life Seeds. 



It has oftentimes been said that, "besides good seeds, grood gardeners are necessary in 

 producing a satisfactory crop." We all know how true this is. Seeds of the best quality 

 sometimes fail through improper treatment by sowing the seed too deep or too shaUow. in too 

 wet or too dry soil. Some will germinate rapidly at a certain temperature, while others, if 

 sown under the same conditions, are apt to decay. The young plants are liable to various 

 accidents, cold or dry air may check their growth or destroy tbem. Insectsabove and below 

 the ground may attack them and a great many other contingencies may arise to prevent The 

 best seeds from giving satisfaction, and for all these reasons we cannot, of course, guarantee 

 or be responsible for a crop, as success is dependent upon natural causes, which are beyond 

 human coutrol. Therefore we do not warrant in any way, express, or implied, the contents, 

 or the description, quality, productiveness, or any other matter of any seeds, bulbs, or plants 

 sold by us, and we will not be in any way responsible for the crop. If the purchaser does not 

 accept these goods on above terms, no sale is made thereof, and he must return them at once, 

 and money will be refunded. Subject to above conditions we make this sale, at the moder- 

 ate prices at which we sell our goods.
