 stem second early sort, solid and of tender quality. Pkt., 10 cts.; 

 § oz., 25 cts.; oz., 45 cts.; \ lb., $1.50.

 after Early Summer, and is larger. Equally useful for both 

 home and market garden. Pkt, 10 cts.; § oz., 20 cts.; oz.,

Late Winter Sorts 



195 Danish Ball Head. The leading late variety in many 

 sections, and a fine sauerkraut cabbage. Heads average 

 ten to twelve pounds, are round, fine keepers. The strong 

 growth and its good quality makes it a most valuable 

 Cabbage. Pkt., 10 cts.; \ oz., 25 cts.; oz., 40 cts.; \ lb., 

 $1.25. 



196 Danish Roundhead. Another good sauerkraut variety, 

 slightly earlier than Ball Head, with a shorter stalk, and very 

 hard. The interior leaves are pure white and of sweet flavor. 

 Pkt., 10 cts.; i oz., 25 cts.; oz., 40 cts.; \ lb., $1.25. 



200 Dreer's Selected Late Flat Dutch. The heads are 

 somewhat flattened and grow remarkably large, even and very 

 solid, and the quality is unsurpassed. Makes a slow growth, 

 but is a very hardy and sure heading sort for late use, as it can 

 stand well into winter. A splendid keeper and will keep well 

 until the following spring, in pits or frostproof cellar or out- 

 house. Pkt., 10 cts.; % oz., 20 cts.; oz., 35 cts.; i lb., $1.00. 



Savoy Cabbage 



210 Perfection Drumhead Savoy. The largest solid heading 

 Savoy and our strain is the best procurable. The plants are 

 strong and vigorous, deep green and heavily savoyed and curl- 

 ed. In flavor, Savoy cabbage is quite distinct, preferred by 

 many connoisseurs to any other cabbage, and we highly recom- 

 mend it. Pkt., 10 cts.; £ oz., 25 cts.; oz., 40 cts.; I lb., $1.25. 



Perfection Savoy Cabbage 



Red Cabbage 



205 Haco Early Red. A small round early sort, ideal for the 

 garden of limited size. Makes a very solid head of delicate 

 texture. Pkt., 15 cts.; J oz., 35 cts.; oz., 60 cts.; i lb., $1.75.

 I oz., 20 cts.; oz., 35 cts.; i lb., $1.00.

 and a sure-heading sort, round and solid. A favorite home 

 pickling sort. Pkt., lOcts. ; j oz., 25 cts. ; oz., 40cts.; Jib., $1.25. 



Chinese, or Celery Cabbage 



Chinese Cabbage really is not a cabbage but a Mustard, forming a compact, 

 elongated, tightly folded head, and is good all the way through. Delicious 

 served as a salad with a French dressing, or like Cole Slaw, with Mayonnaise. 

 The green portion of the leaves may also be served like Spinach, while the 

 heavy midribs are very palatable like Swiss Chard, or Asparagus. We offer 

 the two best sorts. Seeds should not be sown before the middle of July, as 

 early grown plants soon shoot to seed. 



222 Wong Bok. This produces a large, broad, head very solid and compact. 

 Wong Bok is entirely self folding and the heads need no tying up or 

 blanching of any kind. Pkt., 10 cts.; \ oz., 25 cts.; oz., 40 cts.; j lb., $1.25. 



221 Improved Peking. This fine salad vegetable resembles Cos Lettuce. 

 The head is long and compact, and all but the outer leaves blanch a 

 creamy white. Very crisp and tender, and in every way adapted for 

 the home garden. We have recently secured a much improved strain and 

 recommend a trial. Pkt., 10 cts.; j oz., 30 cts.; oz., 50 cts.; j lb., $1.50.

 Chinese Cabbage 



Culture — Sow and cultivate same as late cabbage. The crop of greens may be 

 grown directly in the seed rows, or the plants may be transplanted and set two feet 

 apart in the rows. Best after being touched by frost, which greatly improves flavor 

 and tenderness. One ounce will produce about 2000 plants. 



302 Creole or Southern. Grows 2 to 3 feet high, and forms bunches of tender 

 delicate leaves slightly curled at edges. Pkt., 10 cts.; oz., 20 cts.; i lb., 50 ctb.. 

 lb., $1.50.
