EXTEA EARLY EXPRESS CABBAGE. 



VERY EARLY ETAMPES. 



EARLY ■WINNINGSTADT (PRUSSIAN PRIZE STOCK 



There is nothing of greater importance to the market or family gardener than reliable eabbage seeds. We need 

 say nothing to those who liave purchased our cabbage in former seasons, as to them its high quality is already 

 known. To those who have never tried us, we can only say that our cabbage is the very best procurable and 

 vastly Slip 'rior to the seed generally sold. Kvery grain of seed produced is from carefully selected heads, and our stocks are 

 unsuVpasstd in this country. We annually supply hundreds of the best market gardeners around Philadelphia, New York 

 and other large cities of the Union. This fact alone is an evidence of high quality.

EXTRA EARET 

 EXPRESS. A new 

 French cabbage, re- 

 sembling the well- 

 known Etampes cab- 

 bage, but a few days 

 earlier and a little 

 lighter in color. It 

 comes ofif almost as 

 early as our John- 

 sou & Stokes' Earli- 

 est Cabbage, but 

 does not form so large 

 or solid a head. Do 

 not be deceived into 

 buying these French 

 cabbages as tlie earli- 

 est and best, as after 

 three years compara- 

 tive trials, each variety planted alongside, we find them 



some days liehind our Wonderful and Earliest, which are 



thoroughbred American varieties, and form both larger and 



harder heads. Pkt., 10c. ; oz., 25c.; }i lb., 75c.; lb., $2.50.

VERY EARLY ETAMPES. 



This variety 

 comes originally 

 from France. 

 Ripening a week 

 later than John- 

 son & Stokes' 

 Earl i est , and 

 coming in a few 

 days ahead of 

 Wakefield, 

 which, previous 

 to the introduc- 

 tion of Johnsoti 

 & Stokes' Earli- 

 est, was consid- 

 ered the earliest 

 ofall. It forms 

 a good, hard, 

 pointed head, 

 with a V e ry 

 short stem, 

 growing close to 



the ground. Pkt., 5c.; oz., 20c.; ^Ib., 65c.; lb., $2.25. 



Early Dwarf Flat Dutch. A standard second early 



market variety. Pkt., 5o.; oz., 20c.; 34 lb., 75c.; lb., $2.50. 



EARLY TVINNINGSTADT, THE PRUSSIAN PRIZE 

 STOCK. Many consider the Early Win ningstadt the very 

 best for early market sales, as it invariably grows very hard 

 and will head on soils where many other sorts fail entirely'. 

 Reliable stock is hard to get, as seedsmen usually import it 

 from England and France. The seed we offer, however, is 

 American-grown, acclimated and selected from the original 

 Prussian Prize Stock. Those intending to plant tliis variety 

 will find this strain far superior in earliness, size, solidity 

 and great uniformitv of heading to anv other ever sold in 

 this country. Pkt., lOc; oz., .30c.; 34 lb., 75c.; lb., $2.75. "* 



EARLY BLEICHFIELD GIANT. It is seldom we 

 are able to recommend a new foreign cabbage .as highly as 

 this variety. Since its introduction a few years ago it has 

 grown very popular with market gardeners as a second early 

 and summer sort. It is a short stemmed, large heading sort, 

 tender and solid, ripening a few days earlier than Brunswick. 

 Cabbage growers in all sections should not fail to give it a 

 trial. Pkt., 5c.; oz., 25c.; 34 lb., 70c.; lb., 82.40. 



Early Drumhead. A second early, large, solid-heading 

 variety. Pkt., 5c.; oz., 20c.; 34 lb., 75c.; lb., $2.50. 



FOTTLEB'S IMPROVED EARLY BRUNSWICK. 



A splendid second earlv and late sort; shoi't stem, large, 

 solid heads. Pkt.,5e.; oz., 25c.; 3.11b., 70c.; lb., $2.40. 



VANDEBGAW MIDSUMMER, This valuable new 

 variety is the result of many years' selection by Mr. Vander- 

 gaw, a noted Long Island market gardener. In some 

 respectsitresembles "All-Seasons," cominginabout a week 

 after Early Summer, making much larger heads than that 

 well-known variety. Head-i are very uniform in color and 

 size, very solid, and in q\iality all that could be desired in 

 a midsummer and winter cabbage. Long Island cabbage 

 growers have been annually paying Mr. Vandergaw $10 

 per pound for the seed, and it has never been offered l"»efore 

 at a less price. Pkt., lOc; oz., 30c.; % lb., 75c.; lb., $2.75. 



The following well-known varieties of cabbage are each 

 5e. per pkt.; oz.,15c.; 341b., 40c.; lb., $1.50, 



Deep Head Early, Peerless, Extra Early York, 

 Early Sugar Loaf, Imperial Ox-Heart, Early Large 

 York, Early Bacalan, Early Large Schweinfurt.
