HENDERSON'S 



CHARLESTON WAKEFIELD 



Second- Early Pointed- Head Cabbage 



The value of this variety is second only'to the original Early 

 Jersey Wakefield, from which we selected it many years ago, in 

 response to a request for a Cabbage of the same character, but 

 of greater size. 



It is the very best stock of pointed head Cabbage grown today 

 in every respect, except that it is not quite so early as the original 

 stock. This is more than balanced by the great advantage 

 secured in larger size, and consequently heavier crop. 



It is remarkably uniform in size and shape, it heads up very 

 regularly and is a good seller on every market. Price, 30c. oz., 

 $1.00 Jib., $3.50 lb. 



"1 enclose herewith a photo of Henderson's Charleston Wakefield Cabbage 

 grown by me this summer. It weighed 21 lbs. and in the same field were a 

 number of others that came pretty near that weight." 



August 2, 1915. 5. L. S. YOUNG, Philadelphia, Pa. 



" Your Charleston Wakefield Cabbage is a wonder, ^many 



heads weighing 8, 10 and 12 lbs., as solid as a rock. Out of 



800 only 20 failed to head; it seems to be a cabbage of great 



vitality, and the worms and lice damage it but little." 



0. B. ST A UFFER. Rocky Ford, Colo. 



HENDERSON'S 



EARLY SPRING CABBAGE 



A Round Flat' Headed, Extra Early 



W~ ; Many markets require a flat Cabbage at all 

 seasons. Not only has Early Spring met this 

 demand, but it produces such excellent heads, 

 and so early in the season, that it is relied upon by 

 hundreds of growers for their first crop. Price 

 30c. oz., $1.00 \i lb., $3.50 lb. 



HENDEKSON'S 



EARLY SUMMERCABBAGE 



The Best Second Early Cabbage 

 By continued careful selection we have made 

 this famous old variety better than ever. Every 

 undesirable feature has been bred out of it, and it 

 is grown today more largely than ever. It is fit 

 for use right after the very early sorts, and fills the 

 gap between those and Succession perfectly. The 

 heads are of medium size, flat, round, very solid, 

 trims up neat, looks well on the load and on the 

 stand. Price, 35c. oz., $1.20 \i lb., $4.00 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 

 variety in cultivation, and is more largely grown than all other 

 First Early Cabbages combined. It is the " Good old reliable," 

 always depended upon for its uniformity in •earliness and crop. 

 It has a good sized head for so early a variety and the small outside 

 leaves allow it to be closely planted; the heads are pyramidal in 

 shape, having a blunted or rounded peak. We have the original 

 <tock, better selected than ever. It has no equal. {See engraving.) 

 Price, 30c. oz., $1.00 H lb., $3.50 lb. 



" Sestier Bros, of Des Moines, Iowa, had the best cabbage for summer use I ever saw. 

 It was Henderson's Early Jersey Wakefield. Send me the same amount and kindof Cab- 

 bage Ihey ordered last year. JAMES HETHERSH AW, Des Moines, Iowa. 



" Henderson's Jersey Wakefield Cabbage is the best, and I have tried seeds from 

 a number of good seedsmen. Henderson's Wakefield is a reliable header, making 

 95 to 100 per cent, of solid heads." W. J. SHANE, Lexington, Va. 



HENDERSONS 



EARLY MARKET CABBAGE 



The Best Early Kound- Headed Cabbage 

 (Must be sown early in spring. Fall sown plants wintered over 

 are liable to run to seed.) 

 Early Market Cabbage has every quality which gives value 

 to a Cabbage for early use. It is ready a few days after Jersey 

 Wakefield, and is well suited to succeed that variety. The outer 

 leaves are so small and few that the plants may be safely set as 

 close as 21 inches apart. The stem is short, the head round, solid 

 and of good quality. It trims with little waste, and is a perfect 

 shipper. It heads up so evenly that we believe it possible to cut 

 a whole field at one time. (See engraving.) Price, 40c. oz., 

 $1.40 % lb., $5.00 lb. 



Henderson's Early Market Cabbage beats any cabbage I ever saw, or grew. 

 I had some that weighed 16 lbs. each." 



July 30, 1915 B. F. CROSTIC, Harvard, III. 



"I gave your Early Market Cabbage a careful trial last summer, and found 

 it superior to any cabbage I ever grew before." 



Jan. 11, 1915 RALPH W. WARD, Cameron, Mo. 



"The \ lb. of Henderson's Early Market Cabbage seed proved a great success with 

 me. I planted it at the same time as the Charleston and cut it 4 davs earlier. It also 

 did well as a midsummer variety." T. BOCKHOLDT, 3615 W. 71st Chicago III. 



"Henderson's Early Market is a No. 1 Cabbage in all respects." 



R. L. GLASSCOCK, Joliet. Ill, 



HENDERSON S EARLY MARKET CABBAGE.
