Thorburn’s Selected Early Jersey. Wakefield Cabbage 
CABBAGE 
For the earliest supply, seed should be sown in the house, or hot bed, and the plants set out 
as early as the ground is ready I%x2 ft. in the garden, or 2x3 ft. in the field. For Fall crop the 
seed should be sown in June, and transplanted to the field in July. For extra early crop the seed 
may be sown in September and the plants wintered over in a cold frame, producing much hardier 
and stronger plants than the so-called “Frost Proof” cabbage grown in the South. 
2379. Carters Springtide or Allheart. A dwarf variety 
maturing in early Spring. The heads are of perfect 
form and flavor. This choice cabbage is practically all 
heart, there being very few outside leaves, and being the 
earliest variety in cultivation, should be in every garden. 
Pkt. 15c.. 1 oz. 75c. 
2381. Carters Early Heartwell. An early Marrow Cabbage 
of refined quality and delicate flavor ; without doubt one of 
the best varieties in cultivation. Many first prizes re- 
ported last season. Pkt. 15c., 1 oz. 75c. 
Carters Springtide or Allheart

quality with very little outside foliage. Pkt. 10c., oz. 
45c., lb. $4.50.

developing earlier than most late sorts. Pkt. 10c., 1 oz. 
40c., lb. $4.00. 
2520. Succession Improved. Market gardener’s favorite. 
Large, round, solid, slightly flattened heads of beautiful 
light green color. Good keeper and fine quality. Pkt.

headed early Cabbage for summer and early fall ; short 
stemmed, compact with perfect uniformed heads. Pkt. 
10c., 1 oz. 60c., 1 lb. $6.00. 
2564. True Surehead. Very certain to head, however hot 
and dry the weather. The heads are large, round and 
flat, and very hard and firm of texture, fine grained 
and most excellent quality. It is also a remarkably 
good shipper and keeper. Pkt. 10c., 1 oz. 40c. , lb. $4.00. 
2580. Danish Ball Head. An extra hard heading variety, 
medium late, sown mostly for winter use, because of 
its fine keeping qualities. It needs a cool climate, so 
does not do well in the South. Pkt. 10c., oz. 60c., 
lb. $6.00. 
2464. Charleston Wakefield. A very fine and very early 
cone-shaped Cabbage, not so pointed as the Jersey Wake- 
field. Is a favorite wherever grown North or South, 
but is in special favor in the South, for a first early 
crop. Pkt. 10c., oz. 45c., lb. $4.60.
