SHORT'LEAVED EARLY WHITE 



VIENNA KOHL'RABI 



Kohl-Rabi is a bulbous formed vegetable much appre- 

 ciated in Europe and too little known in - America. 

 It is usually cooked before fuUv grown, when it is tender 

 and excellent. This variety is one of the best, being 

 very early, rapid growing, tender and delicately flavored. 

 The bulb is large enough to be eaten in from 10 to 12 

 weeks from sowing and as it is more tender and 

 delicately flavored before fully matured, it is advisable 

 to make successive sowings, rather than depend upon a 

 standing crop. (See cut.) Price, 10c. pkt., 30c. oz., 

 90c. H lb., $3.00 lb.
