"Early Spring " Cabbage. 



A New Extra Early Cabbage, with a Round Fiat Head, 

 coming in with the Wakefield. 



The must valuable early Cabbage over Introduced. The variety is of 



Early Siinimcr type, bill about one-lift h Bmaller, having only four or five 

 outside leaves, and these so small, and growing wo near to the head, tbat 

 it mav be successfully planted twenty-one Inches apart, as close as any 



\ anvtv we know of. I'.in its great value lies in the fact that it is 

 the only first Early Flat Cabbage. It possesses wonderful uni- 

 formity In shape, being round, slightly Battened tit top of head. Stem is 

 Hhort and extends but little into the head ; this feature is valuable, as it 

 makes almost the entire head edible. Theveining of the leaves is par- 

 ticularly fine, in which respect It shows its finely bred character, being 

 entirely free from any coarseness whatever. There is no Cabbage we 

 know of having a more solid head ; but, added to this, it has the pecul- 

 iarity of heading firmly at an early Stage In Its growth, BO that the finest 

 i abliape. though small, can be obtained Ions before it has attained Its 

 mature size. It is entirely free from any rianknees of flavor. (.S'eecur.)

Henderson's Succession Cabbage. 



IS POSITIVELY THE 



FINEST CABBAGE IN EXISTENCE, 



Whether tor Medium Early, Mala Crop or Winter use. 

 PERFECT la every respect. 



The Succession Cabbage we consider one of our most valu- 

 able contributions to horticulture. It would lie classed as a 

 second early, coming In a few days later than Earlv Summer, 

 but it is Immeasurably superior to that variety; itisof nearly 

 double thesizeand is absolutely true to its type under allroii- 

 dltions. In addition to this, it has no tendency whatever to 

 run to seed. We can say without exaggeration that it is the 

 finest Cabbage in existence to-day; whether for medium early, 

 tnniii crop (, rlateu.se it has no equal. It is so finely bred ami 

 so true to type that In a Held of twenty acres every head ap- 

 pears alike. We can recommend It either for the market gar- 

 dener, trucker or private planter, us It is a perfect cabbage in 



every respect, hot only being ol the largest size, but o! hand- 

 some color and of the fines! quality. It Isprobably the safest 

 variety for an amateur to plant. as it does well at all seasons. 

 aud one is almost sure of getting n crop, no matter when it is 



planted. Our stocks of Cabbage ol all varieties have for years 

 been the acknowledged standard of excellence in t his country, 



and when we state that we consider Succession to be the 

 most valuable variety that we have ever Introduced, our 



opinion of Its great merit will be apparent to nil. (See rut . 1
