HOIiLANDEB. 
Gardeners in every section of America are 
demanding seed of th s marvelons cabbage. We 
have obtained direct from one of the R-row- 
ara in Europe a large supply of the seed for 
our market gardeners trade. Thor.e who have 
grown the Hollander pronounce it the best late 
feu and winter cabbage that has ever been pro- 
daced The heads are of good size and of a 
whitish shflde, entirely different from any other 
sort. Our illustration gives a splendid idea of 
the shape and compact lormation of the heads.

EARIiY SUaiMER. 
(Selectea.) Our strain of this standard 
earlyvariety has beencarefuUy selected each 
season, and we pride ourselves on being able 
to offer a strain of Barly Summer that can- 
not be surpassed. It grows as larte as many 
of the medium and late sorts, and is valunble 
for its quick growth, handsome shape and splen- 
did quality. Many gardeners grow this in prc'- 
cnnce to any other cabbage. Fkt. 5o, oz. 20o,

BURPEE'S ALLHEAD EARLY. 
An all-the-year-round cabbage. We believe 
the best we can do is to take Mr. Burpee's own 
description of this valuable variety. He says: 
Allheail is the earliest of all the large early cab- 
bage and is one-third larger than any other sum- 
mer variety. The deep heads are solid and the 
most uniiorm in color, shape and si»e, of any 
early variety in cultivation. As tenderness is 
the resultof rapid growth, it surpasses all others 
in this respect. The heads grow so compactly 
and are so free from spreading leaves that fully 
one thousand more heads can be obtained to the 
acre. It is really an all-the-vear-round cabbage. 
While it is all that can be desired in an early va- 
rietT it is also vahiable as a late or winter sort. 
Seecl sown in July and set about the 15th or 
Angnst will bring large, solid heads that are 
certain to winter well. Ours is selected with 
ttSVeatest care. Pkt. 10c, oz. 20c, %lb. COc, lb. $2.00. 
SUCCESSION. 
(Henderson's true stock.) A medium early variety and such a 
erand keeper that it is valuable for both early and late use. The larg- 
est growers say it is one of the best marketing cabbages ever introduced, 
•nd we want to add that it is also fine for the home garden. Pkt. 5o,

EARLY JERSEY WAKEFIELD. 
OABEFULLY SELECTED SEED. 
For over twenty years Jersey Wakefield has held its own with other 
early cabbages, and our enormous sales of this variety every season 
proves to us that it still is one of the most popular sorts ever intro- 
daced. Our seed is true and carefully saved from selected heads. 
They are conical or pyramidal in ehape, have lew outside leaves, and can 
therefore be grown very close together. Pkt. 6c oz. 16c, % lb. oOo,

SUREHEAD. 
(Selected stock.) The heads are large round, very solid, tender and 
rich, with very few outer leaves, being nearly all a solid, compact head; 
Ijot the most wonderful feature of the Surehead Cabbage is its ability to 
withstand the drought. It has made fine, large, solid heads, wnile 
other sorts failed to make a single head on account of the extreme 
drought. In every instance it nas given universal satisfaction. 
Flavor sweet, keeps well, and is a good shipper. Pkt. 5c, oz. 20c,

each. It is leriainly the truest type of the large late variety, and whtl 
not so uniform in shape as some sorts, it will average more good solK 
saleable heads per acre than an v other extra lari;e late cabbage. If yoi

to resist the attacks of insects better than any other sort. The rcmot 
parent of this well-known variety is the English Large York. Th 
American decendant, after many years of culture, in this climate, Ba 
the advantage of increased hardiness and ability to stand both heat an 
cold. It was long the most trusted sort with many of our marke

MAMMOTH MARBLEHEAD. 
This is the largest variety of the cabbage family i 
the world. We have had heads, when stripped of a 
waste leaves; that could not be got into a two-bushel ba 
ket, having a diameter two inches greater. Our patroi 
generally succeed in growing the Mammoth from our set 
to the weight of thirty and fortv pounds, ard in some ii 
stances over ninety pounds. It is the best of all var 
eties to raise for winter feed for poultry. We hai 
carefully selected seed of the best quality and know that
