Cabbage Seed 
There is no vegetable which is more universally cuitivated than the Cabbage. It is found in 
the poorest and smallest garden and it responds so readily to better care, that it claims a place in the 
finest garden, and the attention of the most skilled gardeners. Sow the early sorts in autumn and 
protect by a cold-frame during the winter, transplant early in spring, or sow seed in hot-bed during 
February or March, and transplant middle of April; or sow in the open ground, as early in the 
Spring as the ground can be worked. Sow for late crop in April or May. They should be sown in 
drills 4 to 6 inches apart When plants are 6 inches high transplant into richly manured ground, 
the early kinds 2 feet apart; the later kinds for winter use, 3 feet apart. The ground should be 
deeply loosened, worked thoroughly to grow large heads. 1 Ounce of Seed will sow 40 square feet 
of ground and will produce from 2000 to 3000 plants. Our pack will produce 400 to 500 plants. 
Golden Acre This is the earliest variety 
of the round head type. It is similar to 
the well known Copenhagen Market exce¬ 
pt that it is much earlier and both stalk 
and head are smaller. Heads are of a me¬ 
dium size, round, smooth and solid. 
Early Winningstadt. This has become 
one of the most popular varieties ; there is 
no other early sort which heads with great¬ 
er certainty, or more solid ; the heads are 
of good size, cone form, broad at the base 
and twisted at the top; to those who have 
never tried this variety, we say try it by 
all means, plant it. 
Burpee's Early All-Head. 
Burpee’s Early All Head. This is the 
earliest of all large cabbages, and fully one 
third larger than any other early summer 
Cabbage. The deep, flat heads are remark¬ 
ably solid, and the most uniform in color, 
shape and size of any early variety yet 
known. As tenderness is the result of 
rapid growth, it surpasses all others in this 
respect. The heads grow so compactly and 
free from spreading leaves, that fully one 
thousand more heads can be obtained to 
the acre. 
EARLY JERSEY WAKEFIELD 
The most popular early Cabbage on the 
market today. It heads up remarkably 
hard and solid, with but few outside leaves, 
which are unusually thick and heavy, enab¬ 
ling it to stand cold weather without injury 
when carried through the winter either in 
the open ground or in cold frames.
