THE BEST OF ALL CABBAGE IS FORD’S GLORY 
CABBAGE 
Cabbage seed has been a spe¬ 
cialty with us for years, and our 
customers say the seed is good, 
because they get good results, and 
that is always the final test. One 
customer writes that from 1,000 
plants grown from Ford’s Seed he 
raised 1,000 solid marketable 
heads. 
HOW TO GROW CABBAGE. 
For early, the seed should be 
sown in hotbed in March. For 
general crop, sow seed the latter 
part of May in open ground and 
in July transplant into rows 2% 
by 2 feet or more for large grow¬ 
ing varieties; cultivate often. 1 
ounce will grow about 1,000 plants.

Gardener 
says, "Glory 
is the Best 
Cabbage."

FORD’S GLORY CABBAGE 
Highest Quality of All 
Our Most Popular Cabbage—An Every 
Purpose Variety 
THE BEST OF ALL CABBAGES. Glory has 
proven satisfactory wherever it has been planted. 
It matures quite early, a little later than the 
Copenhagen Market, but makes a larger head 
than that variety, is very solid and does not 
burst badly. The stems are short, heads almost 
round, slightly flattened at the top and are ex¬ 
tremely solid, with very small core. There are 
few loose leaves, which is a great advantage, as 
the plants may be set very close together. The 
heart is white crisp-fine-grained, and tender, and 
cooks quickly. Owing to its earliness and the 
hardness of the heads it is an unusually good 
market sort. If the seed is sown in this lati¬ 
tude between June 1 and 10, it will produce 
excellent heads for winter use. It always sells 
for top price in market. The best of all for
