Something New. 
This last fall we furnished our customers something entirely new in the quality of cabbage seed, quality 
such as they never had before. For ten years we have had the best grade of American grown cabbage seed sold 
by any house. With it our sales of cabbage seed increased enormously and our customers were satisfied. We 
were not. We wanted cabbage seed better than any one else had and after years of effort we have succeeded 
in getting just what we want. Hereafter every pound of cabbage seed sold by us will be of our “Premier 
Brand,” a new special high grade cabbage stock, never before offered to any trade except to a few Long Island 
market gardeners. Every head of cabbage from which this seed is grown is selected. Every head that is not 
absolutely true in shape, size and solidity is thrown out and destroyed. Every head that does come up to the 
standard of the most exacting and particular cabbage seed grower in this country is rejected. In this way 
every seed produced is what is known as “stock seed” among s-'ed growers and is as near perfection as can be 
produced. Ours is the first and only seed house having it for distribution. It is not on the market, nor to be 
had from any other seedsman, North, South, East or West. It costs us 100 per cent, more to get this seed than 
it would to buy the ordinary grades sold by seedsmen. Quality in seeds is the first consideration with us ; cost, 
second. This “Premier Brand” is not confined to any one variety. It is of the same grade throughout our list. 
We are determined to excel every other seed house in the quality of our seeds and this is one of our me hods of 
doing it. Plant our “Premier Brand” Cabbage Seed this year and you will be surprised to see the supe- 
riority of your crop over those grown from ordinary grades. The illustration shows a head of cabbage 
grown from this seed. Why not have cabbage like this on your place this year ? You can if you use “Premier 
Brand” Cabbage Seed.
