CABBAGE 



CULTURE: Second Early and Tale varieties of Cabbage are sown outdoors in May or June in a small seed bed and trans- 

 planted to the garden in June or July. When the Cabbage Moth makes its appearance, spray with Henderson' s Rotenone Spray, 

 described on page 136. 



SECOND EARLY or SUMMER VARIETIES 



274 SUCCESSION (Henderson's) 



The Most Celebrated Second-Early Variety 



The heads become solid long before they are fully grown, so that 

 heads of satisfactory size may be cut long before it is at its best. 



Is so finely bred, so free from, coarse veining of the leaves, that 

 in addition to its reliability and sure cropping quality, it possesses 

 all the fine qualities of the very best earlier varieties. Succession 

 Cabbage is much sought after, and much seed is offered as "Succes- 

 sion" which is spurious. True stock can only be obtained direct 

 from us. 



Price, pkt., 10c; oz., 75c; }i lb., $2.00. 



266 EARLY SUMMER (Henderson's) 



As an ideal second-early Cabbage it continues to hold its place. 

 It forms large, round, flattened, solid heads, weighing usually 

 8 to 10 lbs. each. The quality is excellent, tender and sweet. 

 Price, pkt., 10c; oz., 50c; M lb., §1.50. 



LATE VARIETIES 

 252 AUTUMN KING (Henderson's) 



Enormous Solid Heads — Often 20 to 30 lbs. Each 



We say without hesitation that it is the finest late Cabbage 



in this country today,* entirely distinct, and the best keeper; it 

 produces enormous solid heads of that desirable sea-green shade. 



It produces a greater weight of crop per acre than any other 

 variety, from the fact that it develops very few outer leaves and 

 goes all to head. 



A distinct feature of the Autumn King is the peculiarly crimped 

 leaves, which not only add to its appearance, but enable it to be 

 distinguished anywhere. 



Price, pkt., 15c; oz., 75c; M lb., $2.00. 



258 DANISH BALL HEAD (Henderson's) 



This short stem type is popular on account of the great solidity 

 and weight of the heads; it is a strong, vigorous grower, 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 condition until spring. 

 Price, pkt., 10c; oz., 80c; K lb., $2.25. 



268 LATE FLAT DUTCH (Henderson's Selected) 



It produces very large, round, flattened heads, very uniform, is 

 firm and hard, a reliable header even under unfavorable condi- 

 tions, and is one of the best late fall and winter-keeping Cab- 

 bages. 



Price, pkt., 10c; oz., 50c; \i lb., $1.50. 



RED VARIETIES 



270 MAMMOTH ROCK RED 



A large-growing, select strain, producing very solid heads, weigh- 

 ing 10 to 12 lbs. each; color, intense dark red. 

 Price, pkt., 15c; oz., 75c; M lb., $2.00. 



279 RED ACRE (New) 



Uniform early red variety resembling Copenhagen Market in 

 every respect except color. The heads are round, solid, deep red in 

 color and mature with Copenhagen Market. The most desirable 

 earlv red varietv we have ever seen. 



Price, pkt., 20c; oz., $1.00; \i lb., S3.00. 



SAVOY VARIETIES 



250 AMERICAN DRUMHEAD 



The Savoy Cabbages differ from all other in the peculiar crumpled 

 character of the leaves. 



Although excellent at any season of its growth, the Savoy Cab- 

 bage is never at its best until touched by frost. 



Price, pkt., 10c; oz., 75c; M lb.. $2.00. 



271 PERFECTION (Henderson's) 



The head is medium in size, and the leaves are so distinctly and 

 deeply crumpled as to give it almost a mossy appearance. 



Its flavor is sweet and delicious, and it is positively the tenderest 

 cabbage in existence. 



Price, pkt., 25c; oz., 80c; M lb., $2.25. 



278 CHIEFTAIN 



Plants medium sized, short stemmed and fairly compact. The 

 leaves are broad, intensely and uniformly savoyed, dark olive green 

 in color. The heads are medium large, thick, flat, rounded on top 

 and firm. Unsurpassed for an all purpose strain of Savoy Cabbage. 

 Price, pkt., 20c; Yt oz., 85c; oz., $1.50. 



CHINESE CABBAGE 



Chinese Cabbage is a fine vegetable when cooked like other 

 cabbage, but it is delicious when used as a salad 



257 CHI-HI-LI or CELERY CABBAGE 



It has a long, compact head which resembles celery when the outer 

 leaves are removed. It has a crisp, nutty flavor. 

 Price, pkt., 15c; oz., 50c; \i lb., $1.50.
