CABBAGE 
All Seasons 
One of the earliest of the 
second-early sorts. Head 
very large, round, often 
nearly spherical but usually somewhat flattened; very 
solid and of the best quality, keeping as well as the winter 
sorts. Plants very vigorous and sure heading; leaves 
large, smooth, with dense bloom. Remarkable for its 
ability to stand the hot sun and dry weather. Our trial 
has shown that heads which were fit for market by July 
10th were still salable September 10th, the only change 
being increased size and density. One of the very best 
sorts for general cultivation, for if planted for fall crop and 
stored, it remains in fine condition until late in the spring.

cause of close adherence to the type in habit of growth 
and the shape and quality of the head. Plant compact, 
with few outer leaves, which arc smooth and rather thick. 
Head very large for so early a variety, very solid, flat hut 
very deep and uniform in size and shape. Quality excel- 
lent. Well adapted for kraut. By planting late it can 
be used also as a winter cabbage.

/MI • /M II (PE-TSAI) The improved 
imnese bdDOSISfC st £ aio offec resembles 
N/1A111VUV when well grown Cos Let- 
tuce rather than Cabbage. It is often called Celery Cabbage on 
the market. The leaves of the plant when young are crimped at 
the edges, of light green color and appear like smooth leaved 
mustard but with much broader and heavier midribs. The plant 
as it matures becomes 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 is of distinctive 
flavor, very mild and pleasant. It is served as a salad like lettuce 
or cooked like asparagus. 
Sow in this latitude after July 1st at the same time as turnips. 
The early plantings of Pe-Tsai run quickly to seed in hot weather. 
Sow in drills fourteen to twenty inches apart and thin seedlings 
two or three times; or if grown for the market start in boxes and 
and transplant like late cabbage.

The plant is of vigorous growth, with large and rather spreading 
outer leaves which arc noticeably curved and frilled. The head is 
globular or very nearly round, very solid and of large size for so 
early a variety. 
Mammoth Rock Red iSa-Sra* 
bage yet introduced and much better than the stock offered as Red 
Drumhead. No one should plant the latter as long as our strain 
of Mammoth Rock Red can be obtained. The plant is large, with 
numerous spreading leaves. The head is large, round, very solid 
and of deep red color. Nearly every plant will form an extra fine 
head.
