DE GIORGI BROTHERS CO 
DANISH BALL HEAD, SHORT STEM 
Popular because of its great solidity of head and its un¬ 
equalled keeping and shipping qualities. The heads are very 
hard, fine grained, and will weigh one-fourth more than other 
varieties of equal size. Our seed is very high bred and cannot 
be excelled in quality. Genuine Amager Island grown. Pkt. 
10c; oz. 20c; lb. $1.80; 10 lbs. $17.00, postpaid. 
DANISH BALL HEAD, TALL STEM 
Excellent keeper. It resembles the Dutch Winter or 
Hollander; has all its good qualities, but differs from it in 
maturing two weeks later, and has taller stems. The heads 
are more ball shaped than those of the Dutch Winter. Pkt. 
10c; oz. 20c; lb. $1.80; 10 lbs. $17.00, postpaid. 
CABBAGE MARION MARKET 
The MARION MARKET was originally bred up from 
Copenhagen Market, but differs from the latter in several 
respects. It takes about ten days longer to mature than the 
early strains of Copenhagen and produces a much larger 
plant. The heads are practically round, very hardy and stand 
shipment well. The quality throughout is excellent, and a 
favorite for early Kraut. It is very highly resistant to the 
Yellows and we have seen this variety yield as high as 26 
tons per acre. Pkt. 10c; oz. 40c; lb. $3.00.

Oblaeie Cabbage 
CHINESE PE TSAI OR CELERY CABBAGE

high and 3 or 4 inches in diameter. The leaf stems are white, 
as if they had been blanched, and from 1% to 2 inches broad.

green color, heavily veined and crinkled, like Savoy Cabbage.

high quality. Pkt. 10c; oz. 30c; lb. $2.00, postpaid. 
CHIHLI—Earliest of the Chinese group. Heads long, solid, 
white, shaped like a roller, two feet in length. The best

Culture —Chinese cabbage succeeds in cool weather only. 
It is easily raised if seed is sown late in July or early in 
August. The plants develop quickly, forming large solid 
heads well blanched in the hearts. Sow the seed thinly where 
the plants are to mature as they do not stand transplanting 
well. Have rows 2 ft. apart and 20 inches between the rows. 
Chinese Cabbage is much milder in taste than ordinary cab¬ 
bage, it is used boiled as well as raw in salads or made into 
delicious cold slaw. 
CABBAGE BUGNER 
A medium early variety of the Holland type, producing medium 
sized, almost ball-shaped heads, hard and solid. If planted early 
can be cut early in summer and then till fall. A disease resistant 
variety and a good keeper. Pkt. 10c; oz. 45c; lb. $4.00. 
YELLOWS RESISTANT CABBAGES 
such as Iacope, Delux, etc., are necessary in the control of cabbage 
yellows. This disease lives in the soil and cannot be eradicated by 
any practical means. The only salvation lies in using on infested 
lands the resistant varieties. 
Our yellows resistant strains of cabbages are grown for us on 
Long Island and in Wisconsin in co-operation with the University 
of Madison, Wis. The seed we offer is First Generation only and is 
the only safe seed to use on diseased soils.
