VARIETIES-con/mu«/ 
CABBAGE— FOTTLER'S IMPROVED BRUNSWICK 
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 solidity 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 
until spring. For boiling, slaw, sauerkraut, etc., it is unsurpassed, being cns[), 
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. }i lb. $2.25; oz. 75c.; pkt. 10c. 
SUCCESSION 
A feature of this Cabbage is its remarkable resistance to hot sun and dry weather, 
in addition to the fact that it remains in condition for use probably longer than any 
other variety. It is altogether an intermediate variety either for late summer or 
autumn use. The beads are nearly round, slightly flattened but solid and of excel- 
lent quality. It is a little later than Early Summer, but very much larger (about 
double the size), and for the market gardener one of the most useful, marketable and 
profitable Cabbages to grow. It is perhaps the safest variety for the amateur to 
plant as it does w5l at all seasons and is a very sure cropper. }4 Lb. $ 2.00; oz. 70c. ; 
pkt. 10c. 
FOTTLER'S IMPROVED BRUNSWICK 
An ideal second early variety of the drumhead type. Very desirable for the 
home garden on account of its dwarf compact growth and few outer leaves. Head 
large, flat, solid and of excellent quality. M Lb. $2.00; oz.70c.; pkt. 10c. 
LATE VARIETIES 
EWING'S SELECTED LATE FLAT DUTCH 
One of the largest and generally considered the best of the late market sorts. 
The plant is very vigorous and hardy. The leaves are very large and broad; the 
•tem of moderate height; the head very large and solid and keeps better than those 
of most kinds. H lb. $1.75; oz. 60c.; pkt. 10c. 
AUTUMN-KING, OR WORLD-BEATER 
The plant is of extra strong growth, with dark bluish-green leaves growing 
closely about the large flattened heads. In good soil it will produce heads of 
enormous size, but, of course, requires a longer season for growth than do the smaller 
varieties. Seed sown the first of June will produce fine heads in time to put away 
for the winter. M lb. 12.00 oz. 70c. ; pkt. 10c. 
SUREHEAD 
Remarkable for its certainty to head; produces large, solid flattened heads 
of Flat Dutch type. The heads are uniform, hard and fine in texture. Of excel- 
lent quality, and a popular sort with all lovers of good Cabbage, lb. $2.00; 
oz. 70c.; pkt. 10c. 
MARBLEHEAD MAMMOTH — Plant very large, late in maturing and the seed 
should be planted earlier than that of most sorts. J< Lb. $2.00; oz.70c.; pkt. 
10c. 
RED VARIETIES 
This class is esteemed for pickling, making slaw, etc. 
MAMMOTH RED DRUMHEAD(OR RED DUTCH)— The well known standard , 
Heads of, large size, slightly rounded, seven to eight inches in diameter; 
color., intense dark red. >^ lb. $1.75; oz. 60c.; pkt. 10c. 
RED DANISH STONEHEAD 
Recent trials of this Cabbage have proved that it is one of the truest to typejin 
the entire list. Red Danish Stonehead forms a dark red head not so large as Mam- 
moth Red, but more solid, and its rich coloring extends farther into the center of the 
head. Growers desiring a Red Cabbage which is absolutely true aa to type can do 
no better than use our strain of Red Danish Stonehead. Produces round or ball- 
shaped heads of great solidity and intensely deep rich coloring. The heads are 
perfectly round, from six to eight inches in diameter. Deep purplish red. J^.lb. 
$2.75; oz. 90c.; pkt. 10c. 
SAVOY VARIETIES 
The quality and flavor of this "Crumpled-Leaf" Cabbage is very superior; 
grown in fall and allowed to be touched by frost, it is sweet, delicate and most 
delicious. 
MAMMOTH AUBERVILLIERS — A superior Savoy of the Drumhead type 
maturing earlier than many other sorts. Hearts solid and well-formed. In 
table quality it resembles the better garden Cabbages. K lb. $1.75; oz. 60c.; 
pkt. 10c. 
PERFECTION DRUMHEAD— A variety that is much prized in Europe and 
also by those who are familiar with it in this country. It is very sweet and 
crisp, and always tender. Heads medium sized and fairly compact. H lb. 
$1.75; oz. 60c.; pkt. 10c. 
PE-TSAI, CHINESE OR CELERY 
CABBAGE 
This is often called Celery Cabbage on the i^rket, and when well grown resem- 
bles Cos Lettuce. It grows rapidly and matures heads in less time than other 
varieties. It can be sown much later than other varieties, and requires no trans- 
planting. 
The leaves, when young, are crimped and of a light green color. The plant, 
as it becomes older, grows more upright and forms heads much like Cos Lettuce. 
The inner leaves blanch an attractive light yellow or creamy white with very white 
midribs. It has a distinctive flavor, very mild and pleasant. It can be served as 
a salad like Lettuce or cooked like other Cabbages. 
Chinese Cabbage should be sown at the same time as Turnios. Early plantings 
run quickly to seed in hot weather. Sow in drills 14 to 20 inches apart, and thin 
the seedlings 2 or 3 times, or. if sown for the market, start in boxes and transplant 
like late Cabbage. H lb. $1.75; oz. 60c.; pkt. 10c.
