Ha ms* Specb! Sframs of Danish Cabbage 
There seems to be no “best” type of Danish cabbage for all places and all conditions. There are 
many strains of great merit that differ in some particulars or are suited to particular types of climate, 
soil or market. The thing to do is to find out which type is best suiled to your conditions and grow 
that kind. 
The strains we have listed here an; the best in their respective classes and are offered by us after 
careful observation in our own trial grounds and in our customers’ fields. We firmly believe that there 
can be no better Danish cabbage sold, than these varieties which we offer no matter haw much is charged 
for the seed! 
HARRIS’ BALLHEAD, (Short Stemmed.) 
See color photo on page 11. This new variety is 
the most uniform strain of deep heading Dan¬ 
ish cabbage which we know. This special strain 
has beeu very careful! y bred on our own farm 
for several years. The heads are extremely hard 
and of good size. It is deeper in shape than 
most other strains and will give a large tonnage 
of fine cabbage to the acre. 
Pkt. 12c; ox. 55c; y 4 lb. $1.55; lb, $5.,25. 
DANISH BALLHEAD Short Stem. Also called 
“Danish Roundhead.” This is a very uniform 
and heavy yielding strain. The heads are large, 
very solid, more flattened than Harris’ Ball- 
head, and of good deep green color. Our seed 
of this variety is very true, practically every 
plant making a good lirm head. 
Pkt. 10c; ox. 30c; y 4 lb. S5c; lb. $2.85. 
DANISH BALLHEAD intermediate. This 
strain produces heads that are deeper and not 
so much flattened as the Short Stem. They are 
very solid, deep green and keep well in storage. 
Pkt. 10c; ox. 30c; l / 4 lb. 85c; lb. $2.85. 
Wisconsin HOLLANDER. “Yellows” Re¬ 
sistant. The heads are as round as a bail and 
very deep green with a purple or bluish tint on 
the edges. The plants are of strong, healthy 
growth with short stems, very hardy, and pro¬ 
duce heads of uniform type. We recommend 
this variety for growing in sections where 44 Yel¬ 
lows” is prevalent. 
This strain will grow and produce good Dan¬ 
ish cabbage on land that is so diseased with 
“Yellows” that other cabbage fails entirely.

PENN STATE Railhead. This excellent variety 
was originated by Dr. Meyers of the Pennsyl¬ 
vania State College and has found favor in 
many cabbage growing sections. It is a short 
stem variety. The heads are medium size, in¬ 
clined to be flat but are very hard and an at¬ 
tractive bright green color. This cabbage will 
produce a large tonnage per acre and keeps 
well in storage. The seed we offer will produce 
good heads of the true type.

Perfection Drumhead. See color photo on 
page 11. Savoy Cabbage is of much finer 
quality than ordinary cabbage and should be 
raised more generally than it is. Without doubt 
this cabbage should have a place in every home 
garden and it has become very popular in mar¬ 
kets and roadside stands for fall and early 
winter use. 
The Perfection Drumhead is a large, dark 
green Savoy Cabbage that heads well and is of 
fine quality. For winter use the plants should 
be set out about July 1st. We offer a very uni¬ 
form and sure heading strain.

Part of a field of Harris’ Ballhead Cabbage 
on Moreton Farm (These heads are pitted 
and grown for seed the following year) 
“/ have used your cabbage and some other seeds for 12 
years and hare altrays found them pure and up to the 
standard in every way.” 
C. F. Phelps, Bliss, TV. Y., May 22, 1933 
“/ have been using your seeds for over 30 years and think 
yours are the best of all. Your Golden Acre Gabbage 
{Special) is the finest thing [ ever saw . Every head was 
perfect and weighed 4 to 5 lbs.” 
James G. Young , Phoenixville , Pa., Jan. 18, 1933 
Red Cabbage 
Red cabbage is always in demand for pickling 
and it usually sells for more in the markets than 
white cabbage. If really good seed is used there 
is no reason why Bed cabbage should not yield 
nearly as much as Danish Ballhead and prove 
much more profitable.

heads of good color and practically every plant

An ounce of seed will sow 40 to 50 feet of row, a packet 3 feel. 
This vegetable is from China, and is becoming increasingly popular every year. It belongs 
to the cabbage family but looks like Cos Lettuce. The large mid-ribs of the leaves are perfectly 
white and very crisp and tender. 11 is excellent when used as a salad, being of a very delicate 
flavor slightly resembling raw cabbage hut more delicious. 
Chinese cabbage has proved a very profitable crop for muck land. There is a good demand 
for it in New York and other large markets in carload lots. 
The seed should be sown not earlier than the first of July in rows 2J/^ feet apart, and the 
plants thinned 18 to 20 inches apart in the rows. If sown early it soon runs to seed and is
