and endures both frost and drouth, that would destroy 
other varieties. 
Quite a distinct sort. Plants rather long stem- 
med, but compact; the leaves are very smooth, 
but thick; the head is of medium size, round and 
very solid, being the hardest heading cabbage we

quite late and keeps well and is considered by 
many the best cabbage to hold over for spring 
markets. Inferior strains are sometimes sold as: 
‘** Danish Bald Head,” ‘‘ Solid Emperor,” ‘“German 
Export.”’ etc. Pkt. 5cts.; Oz. 30cts.; 2 Oz. 55cts:;
