This peerless varietj^ was introduced by us, and we can say without hesitation 

 that it is the finest late Cabbage in this country to-day, entirely distinct, and the best 

 keeper; it produces enormous solid heads of that desirable dull green shade. It has 

 such small outer leaves that it can be planted closer than the ordinary late sorts; 

 for this reason it can be relied upon to produce a greater weight per acre than any other 

 variety. A distinctive feature of the Autumn King is the peculiarly crimped leaves, 

 which not only add to its appearance, but enable it to be distinguished anjnvhere. But, 

 however good a variety may be at its introduction, it is of paramount importance that 

 improvement in purity be steadilj^ maintained. To this end we ha^-e for many years 

 worked most assiduously on our stock of this valuable varietj', and it is only fair to say 

 that our stock as it is sold to-day is more of a " King ' ' than ever. 



It has successfulh^ stood the most severe of all tests, the competition of the market 

 stand, and is prized and relied on b}^ prominent growers in all sections of the countrv.

HENDERSON'S SUPERIOR STRAIN OF 



Danish Ball Head, or Holland Cabbage 



This type of winter Cabbage has become very popular of late years on account 

 of its unequalled keeping qualities, as well as for the great solidity and weight of the 

 heads; it is strong and vigorous in growth, a little "leggy" but producing large, round, 

 compact heads exceedingly hard and solid, weighing, when trimmed, fully one-fourth 

 more than any other Cabbage of equal size; in consequence, it keeps in fine condition 

 until spring. For boiling, slaw, sauerkraut, etc., it is unsurpassed, being crisp, tender 

 and sweet. It seems to grow luxuriantly on all soils and under most conditions, 

 withstanding hot, dry weather, and does not rot from the effects of wet seasons, and the 

 heads do not burst. Our strain of Danish Ball Head Cabbage yields a larger number 

 of solid heads than any other variety. This is the testimony of almost every large 

 grower of winter Cabbage. Price, 10c! pkt., 25c. oz., 75c. J lb., $2.50 lb. 



"7 raised two acres of Danish Ball Head Cabbage from your seed that gave me 33 tons. It was the finest 

 Cabbage drawn to market here; they were more brittle and the finest grained of anu in the ?narkct." 



BARTON BOUGLASS. East Bloomfield, N. Y. 



"Your Danish Ball Head Cabbage is excellent; in my crop of 350 tons (2.5 arres) everii head was genuine 

 Danish." JA.MES H. CARR, Kent, .V. }'.
