Hastings’ Florida Drumhead, the Earliest and Best Drumhead 
Hastings’ New Perfection 
Cabbage (No. l24)™™'‘p«fe?K 
-or the South as any we have ever seen. An abso- 
lutely good variety originating with one of our 
growers, and for a second early or main crop 
cabbage it has no equal. Heads weigh from 5 
to 8 pounds and are the firmest and most solid 
that you can grow, surpassing in this respect 
the Danish Ball Head. In maturity it is about 
the same as Surehead. A first-class variety for 
either home use, market or shipment, and is en- 
tirely adapted to either spring or fall planting. 
Under good conditions this cabbage will prove 
itself to be what its name implies — abso- 
lute perfection. Packet, 10 cents; % 
ounce, 25 cents; ounce, 40 cents; % lb., 
$1.25; postpaid. 
Hastings’ Florida Drum- 
head (No. 1 15) 
Drumhead varieties for the South. Has 
stood the test of 2.3 years’ extensive 
planting in the South and has always 
proven a favorite for either market, ship- 
ment or home use. Resists well both 
heat and cold. A short stemmed, medi- 
um early variety, growing compactly, 
the leaves turning in as shown in our il- 
lustration. Large head, well flattened 
on top. Don’t think that the name im- 
plies its use only in Florida. It is the 
earliest and best Early Drumhead for 
all the Southern States and for 23 years 
has held its supremacy. It is a well es- 
tablished variety and one you can rely 
on everj^ year, not like novelty cabbages
