CABBAGE 
Hastings’ Genuine Surehead Cabbage 
Hastings’ Centennial Flat Dutch Cabbage 
I This is beyond question the best of the large cabbages for 
^IIUi I IV J planting for winter and spring maturity in the South. It is 
both a heat and cold resisting sort and its exceedingly great vigor in growth 
makes it a success under conditions where other varieties fail. Has proven 
very resistant to winter freezes. It’s a large, well flattened type of cabbage 
that holds up fine in long-distance shipping. On very" rich soil there is a ten- 
dency to grow too large , but this is easily controlled by rather close 
planting. A fine variety 
for both home and mar- 
ket gardeners. See illus- 
tration below. Pkt., 10c ;
