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 distinc, 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. There is rio late-keeping variety 

 which maintains its fresh character so long after it has matured. 

 This quality has made it known as "the sweetest Cabbage ever 

 eaten." (See illustration.)

258 DANISH BALL HEAD (Henderson's) 



Short Stent 



This type has become very 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 choice con- 

 dition until spring.

SAVOY CABBAGE

271 PERFECTION SAVOY (Henderson's) 



Perfection, both in appearance and quality. The head is medium in

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

 cabbage in existence. (See illustration.)
