HENDERSON'S 



EARLY MARKET CABBAGE 



This Danish production is highly praised by all who have grown 

 it. Its uniformity to type is marvelous. Every row and every 

 head in the row look as nearly alike as if all had been turned out of 

 a mold. The plant is small, with short stem, and few outer leaves. 

 These have the excellent habit of curving inward, thus pro\'iding 

 protection to the head, and so effectually economizing space that 

 it may be planted 21 inches apart — at least 50 per cent, closer than 

 any variety 'with a head of similar size. 



Early Market Cabbage is but three or four days later than our 

 Early Jersey Wakefield, and will i,-ield a greater 

 crop per acre than any other early Cabbage. 



For home use its remarkably fine quality and 

 tenderness will be greatly appreciated. The 

 whole plant is well bred. There is an entire 

 absence of coarse veins and leaves, and it has 

 the quality peculiar to some of the best sorts, 

 of hardening the head before it has attained its 

 mature size. (Sec engraving.) Price, 10c. pkt., 

 3 pkts. for 25c., 60c. oz., $2.00 I4 lb. 



"/ gave your Early Market Cabbage a trial last 

 summer, and found it superior to any other Cabbage 

 1 have groii'n.'^

HENDERSON'S 



EARLY SUMMER 

 CABBAGE 



A Splendid Second-Early Cabbage 



Large. Round. Flat Heads, 



8 to 10 Pounds Each 



This peerless variety was named and intro- 

 duced by us years ago; it is widely known and 

 largely grown. As an ideal second-early Cab- 

 bage it continues to hold its place. It forms 

 large, flat, round, solid heads, weighing usually 

 8 to 10 lbs. each. The quality is excellent, ten- 

 der and sweet. It comes in about ten days later 

 than Early Jersey Wakefield, but is more than 

 double in weight. Henderson's Early Summer 

 ^nll be found a far better sort than when we 

 originally offered it, owing to continuous and 

 careful selection. Price, 10c. pkt., 40c. oz., 

 $1.25 i| lb., $4.50 lb. 



HENDERSON'S ORIGINAL 



EARLY JERSEY WAKEFIELD 



The Best First-Early Pointed-Head Cabbage 



This Cabbage, though introduced years ago by the late Peter 

 Henderson, still holds its undisputed lead as the best extra-early 

 pointed-head Cabbage, and is more largely grown than all other 

 first-early Cabbages combined. It is the good, old reliable; 

 and may be depended upon for uniformity in earliness and crop. 

 The head is large enough for so early a variety and the small 

 outside leaves enable it to be planted closely; the heads are 

 pyramidal in shape, having a blunted or rounded peak. It is 

 beyond question the best variety for spring and early summer in 

 the private garden. Its first appearance brings a welcome change 

 from the hard-headed winter sorts, for Early Jersey Wakefield is 

 attractive in appearance, and essentially good in quality. 



It has a delicacy of flavor rarely associated with Cabbage, and 

 properly cooked may be made one of the most palataWe and appe- 

 tizing dishes, and worthy of a place on any table. (See en- 

 graving.) Price, 10c. pkt., 35c. oz., $1.20 I4 lb., $4.00 lb. 



"Lester Bros, of Des Moines. Iowa, had the best Cabbage for summer use 

 grown from your seed that I ever saw. Look up their last year's orders, and 

 send me the same amount and kind of Cabbage they ordered of you last year. 

 I want some of the same kind of seed (it was Early Jersey Wakefield)." 

 JAMES HETHERSHOW. Des Moines, Iowa. 



" Think your seeds the best we ever planted. Our Cabbage last year was 

 splendid, all headed fine which surprised us, as we were told that the seasons 

 were so short here that we would not have any Cabbage at all. We were 

 pleased to sell Cabbage to the same ones who said it." 



Mrs. GRACE JENSEN, Island Pond, VI. 



HENDERSON'S 



CHARLESTON WAKEFIELD 



Second-Early Pointed-Head Cabbage 



The pointed-head Cabbages are preferable to the larger flat kinds. 

 When used fresh from the garden they are of excellent quality, quite 

 free from the coarse rankness so commonly associated with Cabbage. 

 Henderson's Charleston Wakefield is larger, but full}' equal in 

 quality to any of its class and admirably suited to succeed the very 

 early sorts. Price, 10c. pkt., 40c. oz., $1.25 ^i lb., $4.50 lb. 



" Your Charleston Wakefield Cabbage is a wonder, many heads weighing 

 8, 10 and 12 lbs., as solid as a rock."
