Steckler’s New Leader. This cabbage 
has been tested by our market gardeners 
here who praise it and recommend it 
very highly. It resembles somewhat that 
of the Brunswick, but not quite so flat 
and broad, but about the same season. It 
is a regular header and uniform. 
Orleans Pride. Earliest variety head- 
ing cabbage. It is aselected cross between 
the Jersey Wakefield and the Early Flat 
Dutch, afterwards improved by selection 
of stock until it produces uniformly a 
fine head. This cabbage is the earliest 
flat heading cabbage that is now known 
in any market, maturing at about the 
same season as the Charleston Wakefield. 
It should be planted closely in rows, as 
there is but little outside growth, and, 
when so planted, will produce fine crops 
of solid heads of very fine quality. 
Wherever it has been used, we have had 
most excellent reports from it. We re- 
commend same highly for market and 
family use.

Fotler’s Short Stem Brunswick. A 
rapid grower; large, solid heads and few 
outside leaves; planted early it is ready 
for use in July; planted late it is a choice 
winter sort. 
Creole. A northern strain of Flat. 
Dutch grown in Louisiana some years,,. 
making it a hybrid; can be planted as 
early as June ist. It is generally used 
for bunch greens but often affords a good, 
hard head of dark greenish color. 
Faultless. This strain of cabbage is 
one which we have been at work on for 
several years until we have now, in our 
judgment, one of the best stocks of 
second early cabbage, a little earlier 
than Stein’s Harly Flat Dutch; remark-. 
ably uniform in its habit of growth; pro- 
ducing deep flat heads which are very 
hard. The stock heads up practically all 
at one time. The leaves are light green 
in color, broad with medium growth of 
plant outside of heads. The field from 
which the seed was taken produced fully 
99 per cent of large heads, very uniform. 
in size and very attractive in appearance.
