THE MARKET GARDENER’S SEEDSMEN OF THE SOUTHWEST 11 
Selected Cabbage Seed 
Copenhagen Market. 
Culture. The secret of growing hardy 
plants is to thoroughly prepare the soil 
in the plant bed. Plow the soil to a 
depth of 8 or 10 inches, pulverize well. 
Sow in drills not too freely, about one- 
half inch deep, press the soil firmly over 
the seed ; this is important. In about 6 
weeks transplant in rows 3 feet apart, 
1 foot in the row for Winnigstadt, 18 
inches for large-heading varieties. Keep 
the crop well watered and cultivated, for 
when the growth is checked the seed 
head matures and bursts forth as soon 
as moisture is again supplied. This ac¬ 
counts for much cabbage going to seed. 
Early Dwarf Flat Dutch

ducing large, solid, round heads, flat¬ 
tened on top, tender and fine grained.

Late Flat Dutch as above. 
Copenhagen Market 
A very early variety, producing large, 
round heads very early in the season, 
about as early as Jersey Wakefield. It is 
short stemmed, producing heads almost 
on the ground ; leaves light green, me¬ 
dium size, and always tightly folded 
over the head. The plants, therefore, 
may be set closer together than most other early varieties. This new, large, round head, extra early 
Cabbage was originated in Denmark by an old Cabbage specialist, where nearly all of our best varieties 
of Cabbage originated. It has become a great favorite with market gardeners wherever grown. Postpaid, 
pkt., 5c; oz., 25c; % lb., 80c; % lb., $1.50; lb., $2.75; 5 lbs., $12.00. 
Aftwifk This very valuable new introduction is similar to Copenhagen Market, but several 
UOlUCn Hbrc days earlier, and smaller. As the name indicates it is a very profitable sort to 
grow. The size is just right and the earliness and uniform heading 
tendency make it one every market grower and home gardener should 
plant. Postpaid, pkt., 5c; oz., 25c; lb., 90c; lb., $3.00. 
Danish Roundhead or Short 
Stemmed Hollander 1?“^ 
This is the most popular of all late varieties 
for fall and winter use. The seed we offer was 
grown on Amagar Island, Denmark, and 
is not only genuine, but also of the high¬ 
est standard of quality. It is 
an earlier, shorter stemmed 
improved strain of the Danish 
Ballhead. The heads are the 
right market size—not too 
large, very solid and heavy, 
weighing fully a fourth more 
than other varieties of equal 
size. Postpaid, pkt., 5c; oz., 
25c; % lb., 80c; lb., $2.75. 
Early All-Head 
This is an excellent sort, pro¬ 
ducing a good, solid head 
weighing 6 to 8 pounds. It is 
among the earliest sorts and 
is a very profitable sort to 
grow. The outer leaves are 
few and close planting can 
be made, as close as 18 inches 
in the rows and rows 2 feet 
apart. Postpaid, pkt., 5c; oz., 
25c; y 4 lb., 80c; lb., $2.75;
