SUKfiHEAD. This stand- 

 ard yariety is appropriately 

 ^amed Surehead, as it never 

 fails to make a remarkably fine 

 solid head, with but few outer 

 leaves. It is a strong, vigorous 

 grower, ripening late for a main 

 crop, and always brings the 

 highest price in our markets. It 

 produces large, round, flattened 

 heads, and is remarkable for its 

 certainty to head, is very sweet 

 flavored, keeps well, is a good 

 shipper and a general favorite 

 with market gardeners and 

 large growers of cabbages. 

 With a favorable season the 

 heads will grow to a large size, 

 frequently 20 inches in diame- 

 ter, and will often weigh as 

 high as 40 pounds. It is second 

 to none as a main crop \ceh- 

 bage. We particularly recom- 

 mend it to all cabbage growers. 

 Our seed stock we obtained di- 

 rect from the introducer, and 

 our seed is grown under our 

 personal sui)ervision from se- 

 lected heads, and will give en- 

 tire satisfaction. Per pkt., 10 

 cts.; oz., 25 cts.; 34 l^-> ''^ cts.; 

 lb., $2.50. 



NEW EARLY PEEK- 

 liESS. This is a valuable ear- 

 ly variety of cabbage, coming 

 to maturity about the time of 

 the Jersey Wakefield, with few 

 loose leaves, small, short stump, 

 fine grained and uniform in 

 shape, many specimens weigh- 

 ing from 10 to 12 pounds each. 

 Per pkt., 10 cts.; oz., 20 cts.; % 

 lb., 85 cts.; lb., S2.75. 



MAKBLEHEAD MAMMOTH. This we believe to be the 

 largest variety of cabbage in cultivation. A very popular sort 

 in the Southern States, and largely grown for market. Like 

 all enormous vegetables, the quality is not so fine as in the 

 medium sorts, and yet by some it is ^uch in demand. Our 

 strain of seed is pure and will produce the very largest heads 

 that can be grown. Per pkt., 5 cts.; oz., 20 cts.; 3^ lb., 50 cts.; 

 lb., $1.75. 



niiDEKKRAUT. A variety of recent introduction from 

 Germany, somewhat resembling the well-known W^inniug- 

 stadt, but larger in every respect. The heads are very hard 

 and solid and of excellent quality, conical in shape. A sure 

 header and does Avell in all localities. Extensively used for 

 making kraut. Per pkt., 5 cts.; oz., 20 cts.; 3^ lb., 55 cts.; lb., 

 $2.00. 



EarUj bummer. 



EARLY SUMMER. Heads about 10 days later than the 

 Jersey Wakefield, but is much larger. The heads are very 

 solid and of uniform size, being round, flattened and of fine 

 quality. Its very compact habit enables it to be planted 

 almost as close as the Jersey W^akefield. Our seed of this fine 

 variety is pure and true. Per pkt., 10 cts.; oz., 25 cts.; 34 lb., 

 70 cts.; lb., S2.25. 



F O TTLER ' S 

 BRUNSWICK. A 



second early and late 

 variety ; heads very 

 firm and hard, and 

 often attains a weight 

 of 25 pounds. Small, 

 short stems, heads 

 large and of fine qual- 

 ity. It heads soon 

 after the Early Sum- 

 mer or the Early 

 Dwarf Flat Dutch, and 

 is very popular for 

 summer and fall use. 

 Per pkt., 5 cts.; oz., 20 

 cts.; 1^ lb., 70 cts.; lb., 

 «2.40. 



Fottlcr's Brunswick. 



SUCCESSION. This new variety is about one week later 

 than Early .Summer, but heads much larger ; forms handsome, 

 large, firm heads, and is valuable as a sure header. It is quite 

 a distinct variety, and destined to become a general favorite. 

 Per pkt., 10 cts. : oz., 25 cts.; H lb., 75 cte.; lb., $2.75. 



Superior Large Late Flat Dutch. 



SUPERIOR LARGE LATE FLAT DUTCH. This 



variety has no superior as a late or main crop cabbage, with 

 one exception, viz: Faust's Prize Head Late Flat Dutch, 

 which is the purest strain of seed that can be produced. The 

 heads of this variety are very large, solid and broad, with flat 

 tops, fine flavor and with short stem. This is one of the best 

 and surest of all the main crop cabbages. We particularly 

 recommend it as one that can be relied upon implicitly. Per 

 pkt., 5 cts.; oz., 20 cts.; 34 lb., 50 cts.; lb., $1.80. 



Large Late Drumhead. An extra large winter variety; 

 makes very solid heads, very similar to the Late Flat Dutch, 

 but generally longer in stem. In preference to this we would 

 recommend the Short-Stem Drumhead. Per pkt., 5 cts.; oz., 

 15 cts.; 34 lb., 45 cts.; lb., $1.50. 



GREEN GLAZED. A late variety, with leaves of a 

 glossy pea green, and very popular in the South, as it resists 

 the attacks of bugs and insects. Per pkt., 5 cts.; oz., 20 cts.; 

 341b., 50 cts.; lb., $1.75, 



Early Paris Savoy. This variety matures very early and 

 is extensively used throughout France. The heads are firm, 

 solid and finely crimped and excellent good quality. Per 

 pkt., 5 cts.; oz., 15 cts.; 3< lb., 60 cts.; lb., $2.00.
