Ball-Head Cabbage. 



HENDERSON'S SUPERIOR STRAIN. 



This type of winter Cabbage has become very popular 

 of late years on account of its unequalled winter keeping 

 qualities, as well as for the great solidity and weight of the 

 heads; it is of strong, vigorous habit, producing large, round, 

 compact heads, extremely hard and solid, weighing, when 

 trimmed, fully one-fourth more than any other Cabbage of 

 equal size; in consequence, it keeps in choice condition away 

 into the spring. For boiling, slaw, sauerkraut, etc., it is 

 unsurpassed, being crisp and tender. It seems to grow lux- 

 uriantly on all soils and under most conditions, withstanding 

 hot, dry weather, and does not rot from the effects of wet 

 seasons, and the heads do not burst. Our strain is especially 

 selected for round heads, uniformity of size, and is abundantly 

 supplied with outer leaves, enveloping the head sufficiently 

 to be a great protection while in storage. That our strain of 

 Danish Ball Head Cabbage yields more solid Cabbage to 

 the square rod than any other is the testimony of large grow- 

 ers of winter Cabbage. (See cut.)

"Find enclosed a photograph of a field of your Danish Ball-head Cabbage 

 grown by myself. I have used your seed of it for the past 10 years and find it 

 satisfactory in every way." R. T. PARMELE, Adams Basin, N. Y. 



"Your Danish Ball Head Cabbage gives excellent satisfaction. In my crop 

 of 350 tons (25 acres) I did not find a head of domestic or any other variety but 

 the Genuine Danish." JAMES H. CARR, Kent. N.Y 



"I raised two acres of Danish Ball Head Cabbage from your seed that gave 

 me 33 tons. It was the finest Cabbage drawn to market here; they were more 

 brittle and the finest grained of any in the market."

HENDERSON'S 



AUTUMN KING CABBAGE. 



The King of all Winter Cabbages. 



THE BEST KEEPEK— THE LARGEST. 



THIS peerless variety was introduced by us, and 

 we can say without hesitation that it is the 

 finest late Cabbage in this country to-day, 

 entirely distinct, and the best keeper; it produces 

 enormous solid heads of that desirable dull green shade. 

 It has such small outer leaves that it can be planted 

 closer than the ordinary late sorts; for this reason it 

 can be. relied upon to produce a greater weight per 

 acre than any other variety. A distinctive feature of 

 the Autumn King is the peculiarly crimped leaves, 

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

 be distinguished anywhere. But, however, good a 

 variety may be at its introduction, it is of paramount 

 importance that improvement in purity be steadily 

 maintained.' To this end we have for many years 

 worked most' assiduously on our stock of this valuable 

 variety, and it is only fair to say that our stock as it is 

 sold to-day is more of a " King " than ever. 



It has successfully stood the most severe of all tests, 

 the competition of the market stand, and is prized and 

 relied on by prominent growers in all sections of the 

 country. (See cut.) Price, 10c, pkt., 30c. oz., 90c. 

 i lb., $3.25 lb. 



"/ have planted your Autumn King Cabbage for several years and 

 find that it excels all other sorts I have ever grown. My crop last fall 

 ' was especially excellent a large proportion averaging over 25 lb. per 

 head." R. IV. READ, Skerando, Va. 



HENDERSON'S SELECTED 



LATE FLAT DUTCH CABBAGE. 



Our improved highly bred strain of this old favorite 

 Cabbage will be found very superior. It produces 

 very large, round-flattened heads, runs uniform, is 

 firm and hard, a reliable header, even under un- 

 favorable conditions, and is esteemed as one of the 

 best late fall and winter Cabbages; it is a good keeper 

 and shipper and its attractive appearance and fine 

 quality make it saleable. Price, 25c. oz., 75c. \ lb., 

 $2.50 lb.
