BORECOLE, OR KALE. 
Early Green Curled— More hardy than cabbage, 
but as it requires frost to make it fit for the table does not 
do well south of Georgia. Packet, 5 cents; ounce, 15 cts. 
lb., $2.00. 
BROCOLI. 1 
Purple Cape —In its general habit this greatly re¬ 
sembles Cauliflower; it is much inferior in flavor, heads not 
so white but more hardy, and will head when Cauliflower 
would not. Sow it in well pulverized beds, covering lightly 
with fine earth. When the plants are strong enough to 
transplant to deep rich soil which has been trenched two 
feet deep and had a bountiful supply of good well rotted 
manure. Make the rows thirty inches apart, and the same 
distance in the row. Water at all stages of growth. Per 
packet, 10 cents; oz., 25 cents; Y lb., $1.00. 
CABBAGE. 
.... It is a well 
■ : * '■ • known fact that 
good Cabbage 
can not be raised 
from seed of a 
poor quality, and 
yet year after 
year we hear of 
j| complaints of 
g: seed, purchased 
gjgfrom certain par- 
_ ties, not heading 
g§g or being mixed 
|jSB with turnips,rad- 
flgish, etc., and yet 
|g= the disappointed 
'pt planter will buy 
g of the same par- 
' ties again in 
fe hopes of better 
results. There 
is no excuse for 
this. If you 
want Cabbage 
plant any one of the varieties offered below, purchasing 
your stock of us, and you will not be disappointed. Our 
Special Select and grown Cabbage Seed, for the South is 
not to be compared to the Cabbage seed sold by any other 
seed house in the United States. All other stocks, no mat¬ 
ter what claims may be made for them, are inferior in every 
way to the strains we offer. We can not compete in 
price with inferior seeds, and cheap stock, but we more 
than make up the difference in results. MAKE NO 
MISTAKE THIS YEAR. BUY OF US. 
Centennial Flat Dutch— 
This strain of Flat Dutch Cabbage has 
become very popular, and, since its first 
introduction by our Manager, has taken 
a firm hold among truckers and gardeners 
for an early variety. It grows from fif¬ 
teen to twenty pounds per head, accord¬ 
ing to location and culture and is a good 
reliable header. Purchase no Centennial 
Flat Dutch Cabbage from other parties. 
You can get the original and genuine 
from us only. Packet, 10 cents; oz., 
30 cents; Y lb., $1.00; Yi lb., $2.00;

Fottler’s Improved Bruns 
Wick —(Select Strain)—This Cabbage is 
an excellent variety. It requires very 
rich ground, and should be sown early 
for a winter crop as it is a little more sus¬ 
ceptible to the frost than the Centennial. 
It is a good shipper and does not wilt 
easily. Plant in October and November 
and it will be ready for shipment in April 
and May. Per Packet, 10 cents; ounce, 
25 cents; Y lb., 75 cents; lb., $3.00. 
Early Dwarf Flat Dutch — 
An intermediate variety between the 
early pointed and the late varieties. It 
is an excellent second early sort, produc¬ 
ing fair sized heads after the early varie¬ 
ties have disappeared. Heads solid, broad, round and flat 
tened on top, tender and good for home use. Per Packet, 5 
cents; ounce, 25 cents; Y lb., 80 cts.; lb., $3.00.

strain of Early Jersey Wakefield and Flat Dutch 
crossed, giving increased>ize with the same earliness.) 
Of all the Wakefields ever offered this is the most valuable 
of all for home use or shipment. No pointed cabbage has

when other sorts would be a drug on the market. We sell

all; is valuable for home use and near-by'market, but not
