Salamander, b. s lesal 



70 days. Very dependable; particularly popular with market 

 gardeners because it forms fairly good heads when the weather 

 is so warm that most varieties fail. Head globular, hard and 

 buttery; of sweet, delicate flavor. The same as Black Seeded 

 Tennisball, which name is equally popular.

WHITE BOSTON, w. s. (Unrivalled) lewhi 



76 days. Our White Boston is the perfected, pure-bred strain of 

 Unrivalled. This is a cabbage, butter-head type, leaves smooth 

 and straight on the edges. Plant and head entirely light green; 

 heart buttery and yellow. This strain is the best in existence, 

 and we have given it this name to distinguish it from Big Boston.

A strain of White Boston developed by the New York State 

 College of Agriculture. Produces larger, darker green plants than 

 the parent strain. Very satisfactory in tests made during the past 

 season. Worthy of trial wherever a larger type of White Boston 

 is wanted.
