NOTE. — This peerless 

 variety is becoming so 

 well known and so much 

 jought after that dealers 

 everywhere are offering 

 the "Succession Cab- 

 bage." We desire to warn 

 our custom ers against all 

 such, unless the seed is 

 in our original packages 

 and stamped with our red 

 trade-mark. This is of 

 vital importance, as many 

 inferior stocks of Cab- 

 bage are being offered 

 under the name of " Suc- 

 cession" or "Hender- 

 son's Succession." 



Henderson's Succession Cabbage receives nothing but 



The Succession Cabbage we consider one of our most valuable contributions to hor- 

 ticulture. It would be classed as a second early variety, coming in a few days later than 

 Early Summer, but it is immeasurably superior to that variety ; it is of nearly double 

 the size and is absolutely true to its type under all conditions. In addition to this, it 

 has no tendency whatever to run to seed. We can say without exaggeration that 

 it is the finest cabbage in existence to-day ; whether for medium early, main crop or late 

 use, it has no equal. It is so finely bred and so true to type that in a field of twenty 

 acres every head appears alike. "We can recommend it either for the market gardener, 

 trucker or private planter, as it is a perfect cabbage'in every respect, not only being 

 of the largest size, but of handsome color and of the finest quality. It is probably the 

 safest variety for an amateur to plant as it does well at all seasons, and one is almost 

 sure of getting a crop, no matter when it is planted. Our stocks of cabbage of all 

 varieties have for years been the acknowledged standard of excellence in this country, and 

 when we state that we consider Succession to be the most valuable variety that we have 

 ever introduced, our opinion of its great merit will be apparent to all.

THOSE WHO HAVE GROWN IT WRITE: 

 " The most beautiful type of Cabbage ever 



raised." 

 " Took first Premium." 

 "Always harvests a good crop, even when other 



varieties fail." 

 " Your Succession is the best winter keeper." 

 " We grew 16 acres of Succession, as fine Cab- 

 bage as ever grew. " 

 "Every plant headed ; none imperfect. " 

 " The grandest Cabbage ever introduced." 



We could fill many pages of our Catalogue with unsolicited Testimonials similar to the following : 



"Henderson's Succession Cabbage for a medium early 

 cabbage is the finest and most perfect early cabbage in 

 existence. It grows large, hard heads of uniform size, 

 and is the most beautiful type of cabbage I ever saw. 

 In 9 years of cabbage raising I have seen no cabbage that 

 equals it and am perfectly delighted with it. Jt is bound 

 tofilla largeplacein the cabbage culture of this country." 

 R. C. TROWBRIDGE, Tully, N. Y. 



" I am right here tostatt lhalynur Succession Cabbage 

 is the best cabbagt tlial has ever been planted. I planted 



four other Irinds of cabbage side by side, and Succession 

 beat them all. It is the grandest cabbage yet introduced, 

 although it has been a x\ry dry summer here and all 

 other cabbages failed, but I have heads of your Succes- 

 sion tliat wouldjill a half-bushel measure. 



" Frie7ids, I advise you all who receive Mr. Peter Hen- 

 derson's catalogue to try his great Succession Cabbage, 

 for it is the greatest cabbage that has ever been planted, 

 and I speak of what I know to be correct." 



LEVI M. DOVE, Criders, Va. 



" Our crop of Successioji Cabbage has been harvested ; 

 we cut and shipped from a 16-acre field 5,382 barrel 

 crates of as .fine cabbage as ever grew, an average of 326 

 barrel crates per acre. The weather during the latter 

 part of the harvest was very dry and the cabbage suf- 

 fered for want of water. Had we had seasonable rains 

 we believe the field would have made 400 barrel crates 

 per acre."
