HENDERSON'S 



Early Summer Cabbage 



A Splendid Second-Early Cabbage. Large, Round, 

 Flat Heads, 8 to 10 Pounds Each. 



This peerless variety was named and introduced by us years 

 ago ; it is widely known and largely grown. As an ideal second- 

 early Cabbage it continues to hold its place. It forms large, 

 flat, round, solid heads, weighing usually 8 to 10 lbs. each. The 

 quality is excellent, tender and sweet. It comes in about ten 

 days later than Early Jersey Wakefield, but is more than double 

 in weight. Henderson's Early Summer will be found a far 

 better sort than when we originally offered it, owing to con- 

 tinuous and careful selection. Price, 10c. pkt., 86c. oz., $3.20 

 M lb., $12.00 lb. 



"/ have bought your seeds for my cabbage crop, for a number of years, and 

 have always had good seed, true to type. Buyers say my cabbage is the best 

 drawn to them." 



HENDERSON'S 



Early Market Cabbage 



This Danish production is highty praised by ah who have grown 

 it. Its uniformity to type is marvelous. Every row and every 

 head in the row look as nearly alike as if all had been turned out of 

 a mold. The plant is small, with short stem, and few outer 

 leaves. These have the excellent habit of curving inward, thus 

 providing protection to the head, and so effectually economizing 

 space that it may be planted 21 inches apart — at least 50 per 

 cent, closer than any variety with a head of similar size. 



Early Markot Cabbage is but three or four days later than our 

 Early Jersey Wakefield, and will yield a greater crop per acre 

 than any other early Cabbage. 



For home use its remarkably fine quality and tenderness will 

 be greatly appreciated. The whole plant is well bred. There 

 is an entire absence of coarse veins and leaves, and it has the 

 quality peculiar to some of the best sorts, of hardening the head 

 before it has attained its mature size. Price, 10c. pkt., 3 pkts. 

 for 25c, $1.00 oz., $3.50 \i lb. 



"I raised Henderson's Early Market Cabbage last year, and found it the 

 finest cabbage I ever grew. It averaged 15_ lbs. to Ike head and I had several 

 that weighed 22 lbs.

HENDERSON'S SUPERIOR STRAIN OF 



Danish Ball Head, or Holland Cabbage 



This type of winter Cabbage has become very popular of late years on account of its unequaled keeping 

 qualities, as well as for the great solidity and weight of the heads; it is a strong, vigorous grower, "a little 

 leggy" but producing large, round, compact heads, almost as hard as iron, weighing when trimmed fully 

 one-fourth more than any other Cabbage of equal size; in consequence, it keeps in choice condition until 

 spring. For boiling, slaw, sauerkraut, etc., it is unsurpassed, being crisp, tender and sweet. It seems to 

 grow luxuriantly on all soils and under most conditions, withstanding hot, dry weather, and does not rot 

 from the effects of wet seasons, and the heads do not burst. Our strain of Danish Ball Head Cabbage 

 yields a larger number of solid heads than any other. This is the testimony of almost every large grower of 

 winter Cabbage who has grown it. (See engranng). Price, 10c. pkt., 85c. oz., $3.20 ]/i lb., $12.00 lb. 



"/ wish to say that the Cabbage grown from your Danish Ball Head Seed was the best Cabbage I ever grew." 



JOHN W. HOLLIS. Townsend, Del. 

 "I raised two acres of Danish Ball Head Cabbage from your seed that gave me 33 tons. It was the finest Cabbage drawn to market 

 here; they were more brittle and the finest groined of any in the market."

OSCAR GRIMBLE, LyndonvilU, N. Y. 



"I would like to slate that more than one man has come to me and asked how 

 it was that my cabbages grew so large and their' s came to nothing. I told them 

 of Peter Henderson &• Co. They never fail me." 



H. WICKWOOD, Albaca, Bahamas. 



Words of Praise 



"Enclosed find order for 

 Henderson's Danish Ball 

 Head Cabbage Seed. I have 

 harvested twenty-six ton) 

 per acre from seed pur- 

 chased of you. Two years 

 ago I did not have quite 

 enough plants from your 

 seeds, on account of bad 

 weather, and I purchased 

 some plants of others with 

 the result that I had a lot of 

 cabbage, not Danish, that 

 would not keep. I have used 

 your seeds for twelve years 

 and would not change." 

 CHAS. E. ROGERS, 

 Middleboro,

"I wish to say thai 

 Henderson's Danish Ball 

 Head is fine. It is the best 

 cabbage I ever grew." 



Mrs. F. JANSEN. 

 April 24, 1917. Harvey, III. 



"My son, whom I wrote 

 you about last spring, did 

 fine. He made three hun- 

 dred dollars on a lot 180* 

 190, with Henderson's Dan- 

 ish Ball Head Cabbage for 

 the market. The cabbage 

 was as clean as a pin, as we 

 Sprayed it."

"I secured a quantity of 

 Henderson's Danish Ball 

 Head Cabbage from you, 

 which was most satisfactory. 

 I want some more of the 

 same seed."

 Weedsport, 

 May 17. 1917. N. Y. 



"I have harvested 353 

 tons of Henderson's Danish 

 Ball Head Cabbage from 

 your seed. The crop came

 field."

" The ' Country Gentle- 

 man' collection of vegetable 

 seeds I ordered from you in 

 the spring, gave very satis- 

 factory results, and I am 

 having a fine garden from 

 every kind I planted." 

 JOHN J. PIERCE,
