CULTURE — For plants of the 
earliest sorts sow seed in January 
or February under glass, and prick 
out in flats or frames about 2 inches 
apart ea<;h way. Transplant to 
open grotVnd as soon in spring as the 
land can be properly prepared. A 
rich, warm, fibrous loam is best. 
Have the plants in the rows 20 to 
24 inches apart, and rows at least 
2 feet apart. Give thorough culti- 
vation, and irrigate in dry weather 
if practicable. Protect against the 
ravages of cutworm, maggot and 
green worm. A little nitrate of 
soda applied around the plant is of 
great benefit. Potash applications, 
such as wood ashes or muriate, 
may also do much good. For late 
Cabbage plants, sow seed in drills 
in open ground during April and 
May, and transplant in June, giv- 
ing the plants more room than 
allowed for earliest Cabbages. 
Dusting with tobacco dust, insect 
powder, etc., or splashing with hot 
soapsuds, especially Whale Oil Soap 
solution, are good and safe remedies 
for some of the insect pests attack- 
ing plants of the Cabbage. 
'COPENHAGEN MARKET" CABBAGE 
FIRST EARLY VARIETIES 
COPENHAGEN MARKET 
This new variety from Denmark will soon command the attention of those 
who grow for early market as well as the private growers who desire an extra early, 
roundheaded Cabbage which can be depended upon for making large solid heads 
at an early season. The heads are grown upon a remarkably short stem, are solid 
and large in size, weighing 10 to 12 pounds, light green leaves, and of excellent 
quality. It is the largest of the early round-headed varieties, and its habit of 
growth allows of its being planted close together in the field or garden, and it 
matures so uniformly that the entire crop is ready for cutting at one time. ^ lb. 
$2.75; oz. 90c.; pkt. 10c. 
SELECT EARLY JERSEY WAKEFIELD 
The Best First-Early Pointed-Head Cabbage. 
The heads are uniformly hard and solid. They are pyramidal in form, gener- 
ally pointed at the end, with but few outside leaves. The outer leaves are un- 
usually thick and heavy, and it is thereby enabled to stand much cold weather with- 
out injury. Quality is excellent. ^ lb. $2.00; oz. 70c.; pkt. 10c. 
EARLY SPRING 
The only Extra-Early Round Flat-Headed Cabbage 
Heads are remarkably uniform, and very solid even when young. Particularly 
valuable on account of its being a first-early fiat Cabbage; many people preferring 
this type to the pointed heads. No variety has a more solid head, and as the stem 
is short, almost the whole plant is edible. Fine texture and delicate fiavor. H^b. 
$2.25; oz. 75c.; pkt. 10c. 
SECOND EARLY VARIETIES 
ENKHUIZEN GLORY 
This is the nearest substitute for Copenhagen Market. A most valuable 
second-early Cabbage that is becoming immensely popular. It produces fine mar- 
ketable heads, round or ball-like in form. The heads are very solid, with but few 
outer leaves — and of such compact growth as to permit quite close planting, thus 
increasing the yield of a given area. The heads are of medium size (weighing from 
six to eiyht pounds trimmed), tender and of fine flavor. They keep well when put 
away and consequently "Enkhuizcn Glory" is valuable also for sowing later in the 
season for early winter use. Plants set out in raid-summer will produce fine beads 
before cold weather. M Lb. $2.25; oz. 75c.; pkt. 10c. 
EARLY WINNINGSTADT 
The heads are of the same size as the "Jersey Wakefield." but more sharply 
pomted in form and not so early. The leaves are rich dark green, slightly glossy, 
most tightly folded, the heads being the hardest of any early cabbage. By reason 
of Its great solidity it is also a popular variety to plant in the summer for winter 
use. }i lb. $2.00.; oz. 70c.t pkt. 10c. 
EXTRA EARLY EXPRESS 
A home-garden and market Cabbage that has no superior among the early 
pointed-head varieties, maturing in approximately 100 days — about a week earlier 
than the Early Jersey Wakefield. Forms a good-sized, solid head. Also sold under 
a number of other fancy names. H lb. $2.00; oz. 70c. ; pkt. 10c. 
HENDERSON'S EARLY SUMMER 
A reliable second early Cabbage, which matures about ten days after the Jersey 
Wakefield. It makes a large, solid, flattish head, with short outer leaves, which 
admit of close planting in the field, and is a good keeper. This variety, maturing so 
soon after the pointed head sorts, is extremely valuable for growing as a second 
crop, and as it is suited to all sections it is very largely grown. Si Lb. $2.00; 
oz. 70c.; pkt. 10c. 
ALL-SEASONS 
One of the earliest of the second early sorts. Head large, round, often nearly 
spherical, but usually somewhat flattened; very solid and of the best quality, 
keeping as well as the winter sorts. Remarkable for its ability to stand the hot 
sun and dry weather. K lb. $2.00; oz. 70c.; pkt. 10c.
