HENDERSON’S 
Early Summer Cabbage 
A Splendid Second-Early Cabbage 
Introduced by Peter Henderson & Co. in 1874. 
266 ‘This peerless variety was named and introduced by us years 
ago; it is widely known and largely grown. As an ideal second- 
early Cabbage it continues to hold its place. It forms large, flat, 
round, solid heads, weighing usually 8.to 10 lbs. each. The quality 
is excellent, tender and sweet. It comes in about ten days later 
than Early Jersey Wakefield, but is more than double in weight. 
Henderson’s Early Summer will be found a far better sort than 
when we originally offered it, owing to continuous.and careful selec- 
tion. Price, 10c. pkt., 70c. oz., $2.00 14 Ib., $6.00 lb. 
“T take pleasure in telling you that four pounds of Henderson’s Early Summer 
Cabbage produced more plants than ten pores of seed I purchased locally.”

ERD ERSONE 
Early Market Cabbage 
Introduced by Peter Henderson & Co. in 1912. 
262 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 
outofamold. The plant is small, with shert stem, and few outer 
leaves. These have the excellent habit of curving inward, thus 
providing 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 yield 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 course 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. (See LeU, )

“Too much cannot be said in oe, oA eee s Early Market Cab- 
bage. It surely is fine and I never had such nice cabbage before. It is a 
wonderfully good keeper.”

HENDERSON’S ORIGINAL 
Early Jersey Wakefield 
The Best. First-Early Pointed-Head Cabbage 
Introduced by Peter Henderson & Co. in 1868. 
260 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 Wakcfield is attractive in appearance 
and essentially good in quality. It_has a delicacy of flavor rarely 
associated with Cabbage, and properly cooked may 
on any table. (See engraving.)

‘*Had Peter Henderson done nothing else but introduce the Early Jersey 
Wakefield Cabbage, it would be a lasting monument to his name. No beiter 
variety is in cultivation today among the ~early kinds.’”—Country

Charleston Wakefield 
Second-Early Pcinted Head Cabbage 
Introduced by Peter. Henderson & Co. in 1892. 
254 The pointed-head Cabbages are preferable to the larger flat’ 
kinds. When used fresh from the gardén they are of excellent 
quality, quite free from the coarse rankness so commonly associated 
with Cabbage. Henderson’s Charleston Wakefield is larger, but 
fully equal in quality to any of its class and admirably suited to suc- 
ceed the very early sorts. -
