Early Large York Cabbage. 
Second Early or Summer Cabbages 
HENDERSON’S 
11 EARLY SUMMER 
Heads large, fiat or slightly conical, and keep longer without bursting 
than most of the early sorts. Valuable for both family and market. This 
may be called an improvement on the Newark Flat Dutch, which it has 
superseded. Pkt. 5c; Oz. 20c; 2 Oz. 35c; Hi Lb. 00c; Lb. $2.00

HENDERSON'8 
Early Summer 
Cabbage. 
ALL MEAD BARLY_—^ 
A variety in which the plants are more compact, the leaf 
smoother and thicker and the heads rounder than the Early Summer. 
Certainly a good variety which promises to become very popular.

Early Dwarf Flat Dutch 
Continued experience confirms our 
belief that this 
IS THE BEST SECOND EARLY SORT 
The plants are short stemmed and upright, with comparatively few and short leaves, so that they can be planted closely. 
Heads large, solid, maturing about as early as Early Summer and stand long without bursting. 
Every plant will form a hard head fit for market as early as the earliest of the 
round heading cabbages, and as large and solid as the winter kinds. 
Our stock should not be confounded with the inferior later stocks frequently offered under this name. Pkt. 5c; Oz. 20c;

Early Winnigstadt-^- 
One of the best for general use, being very hardy and sure to head, forming a 
hard head when most sorts fail. Those who have failed with other kinds can hope to 
succeed with this. It seems to suffer less from the cabbage worm than any other sort. 
Plant very compact, with short, thick leaves. Heads regular, conical, very hard, and 
keep well both summer and winter. 
It is the hardiest, not only as regards frost, but will suffer less 
from excessive wet, drought, insects or disease, than any other 
second early sort, and will give a fair crop of heads when others fail.

Early Dwarf Flat Dutch Cabbage. 
Early Winnigstadt Cabbage. 
This is the sort generally grown on Long Island for the New York 
market. Heads very large, round, often nearly spherical, but usually 
somewhat flattened; very solid and of the best quality, keeping as 
well as the winter sorts. Plants very vigorous and sure heading; 
leaves large, smooth, with dense bloom. Remarkable for its ability 
to stand the hot sun and dry weather. Our trial lias shown that 
heads which were fit for market by July 10th were still salable Sep¬ 
tember 10th, the only change being increased size and density. One 
of the very best sorts for general cultivation. 1'kt. 5c; Oz; 30c;

Eilderkraut 
Somewhat like Winnigstadt, but larger, much more pointed, 
and heading up with fewer outside leaves. Highly esteemed for 
making kraut. Good either for first or second crop, and succeeds 
particularly well on rich prairie soils. Pkt. 5c; Oz. 20c; 2 Oz. 35c;
