 = CORELESS.=^— 



A highly-bred early Carrot of medium size, 

 ideal for table use, boiling, soups, etc., being 

 very tender all through ; absolutely without 

 woody core, and delicately flavored. Color, 

 rich orange-red. The roots are uniform in 

 shape and size, 6 to 7 inches long by 1| inches 

 in diameter, with small top and small tap-root. 

 (See cut.) Price, 10c. pkt., 20c. oz., 60c. i lb.,

Henderson's Seleded Half-Long 

 — DANVERS CARROT— 



A handsome half-long, cylindrical, stump- 

 rooted Carrot of good size and of a rich, dark 

 orange color; it grows to a large size, is smooth, 

 and the flesh very close in texture, with very 

 little core and a small, tapering tap-root. It 

 is a first-class Carrot for all soils; under good 

 cultivation it has yielded 25 to 30 tons per 

 acre with the smallest length of root of any 

 now grown, and is more easily harvested than 

 the longer types. Our selected stock gives 

 the best of satisfaction. {See cut.) Price, 

 10c. pkt., 15c. oz., 40c. i lb., $1.25 lb.

HENDERSON'S ORIGINAL EARLY JERSEY 



WAKEFIELD CABBAGE. 



Henderson's CHARLESTON 



OR LARGE WAKEFIELD CABBAGE. 



THE BEST FIRST EARLY 



= THE BEST LARGE EAFILY CABBAGE' 



This Cabbage, though introduced years ago by the late 

 Peter Henderson, still holds its undisputed lead as the best 

 extra early variety in cultivation, and is more largely grown 

 than all other First Early Cabbages combined. It is the good, 

 old reliable, always depended upon for its uniformity in earli- 

 ness and crop. Among its merits may also be mentioned its 

 large size of head for so early a variety and the small outside 

 foliage, allowing it to be closely planted; the heads are pyra- 

 midal in shape, having a blunted or rounded peak. We believe 

 our selected stock has no equal. {See cut.) Price, 10c. pkt., 

 30c. oz., $1.00 i lb., $3.00 lb. 



"Had Peter Henderson done nothing else but introduce the Early Wakefield 

 Cabbage, it would be a lasting monument to his name. No better variety is in 

 cuUivation to-day among the early kinds." — Country Gentleman. 



" Your Early Wakefield Cabbage I find of superior merit; they head up beau- 

 tifully into creamy cone-shaped heads of splendid flavor with scarcely any outside 

 leaves, and long standing without cracking open or decaying." 



C. J. HOOVER, Morristown, N. J. 



For some years past customers have requested us to procure 

 for them, if possible, a Cabbage which had all the character- 

 istics of the Early Jersey Wakefield, but of greater size. With 

 this in view, we carefully selected from one of our best stocks 

 of Wakefield a larger type, which is now so fixed in its char- 

 acter that we can offer it with confidence to those desiring a 

 Cabbage of this kind. This selection will average about 50 per 

 cent, larger in size than the old type of Wakefield, and is only 

 a few days later. {See cut.) Price, 10c. pkt., 35c. oz., $1.00 J lb., 

 $3.25 lb. 



"Your Charleston Wakefield Cabbage is a wonder, many heads weighing 8, 10 

 and 12 lbs., as solid as a rock. Out of 800 only 20 failed to head; it seems to be a 

 cabbage of great vitality, and the worms and lice damage it but little." 



O. B. STAUFFER, Rocky Ford, Colo. 



" Your Cabbage Seed proved very fine with me last season, as it always has 

 done, and I want yours and no other." — E. V. THOMPSON, Louisville, Ky.
