EWING'S SELECT DANISH "CANNON BALL" 
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 soUdity and weight of 
the heads- it is strong and vigorous in growth, and produces 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 
untill spring. For boiUng, slaw, sauerkraut, etc., it is unsurpassed, being crisp, 
tender and sweet. It seems to grow luxuriantly on all soils and under most condi- 
tions withstanding hot, dry weather, and does not rot from the effects of wet sea- 
sons, nor do the heads burst. H lb- $2.50; oz. 80c.; pkt. 10c.
