Frost Proof Cabbage 

 Plants 



Varieties: Early Jersey Wakefield, 

 Charleston Wakefield, SucceBSion 

 and Early Flat Dutcb. 



These plants are grown in the open 

 field during the fall and winter 

 months, which causes them to make 

 a slow, tough, hardy growth — so 

 hardy that the outer leaves turn to a 

 reddish brown. They can be shipped 

 to distant points without danger of 

 spoiling, and should be planted in the 

 open ground from four to five weeks 

 earlier than frame plants. 



Thev will stand a temperature of 

 10 to 15 degrees above zero without 

 iniurv. Will do very much better 

 planted early, as they will take root 

 and start to grow as soon as warm 

 weather sets in. 



Orders filled from January 1 until 

 April 1. We do not advise planting 

 later than this time. 



Price by mail, postpaid, 35c. per 

 100. By express, buyer paying ex- 

 press charges: 



500 for $1.00. 

 1000 to 4000 at $1.50 per M.
