EARLY CABBAGE 
• GURNEY’S EARLY 
BALLHEAD CABBAGE 
In offering this new early sum¬ 
mer Ball head cabbage we know 
that we are presenting the _ cab¬ 
bage-growing public with a winner 
and a money-maker. This cabbage 
closely resembles the Danish Ball- 
head. The heads are perfectly 
round, good size and mature as 
early as Wakefield. We recom¬ 
mend this sort especially to market 
gardeners and for the home garden 
for both early and late. We feel 
sure it will take the place of nearly 
all of the summer varieties, pro¬ 
ducing a greater per cent of solid 
heads than any of them, and on 
account of the small amount of 
foliage and the compact form in 
which it grows, can be planted 
much closer than other varieties.

1 lb., $1.85; 5 lbs., $7.90 Postpaid. 
• EARLIEST OF ALL 
CABBAGE 
This is a strictly new variety of 
Danish production, maturing me¬ 
dium sized, extra solid round heads 
and a larger percentage per hun¬ 
dred plants than any other variety, 
which makes it the most valuable 
for market gardeners and home 
consumption. Pkt., 5c; oz., 20c; 
14 lb., 60c; lb., $1.75.

MARKET 
The best Early round-headed 
sort on the market. The heads are 
very solid averaging about 8 
pounds. It is short stemmed, the 
heads growing very close to the 
ground. Matures with Charleston 
Wakefield and gives a heavier crop 
per acre. Our stock of this is very 
fine. Pkt., 5c; oz., 20c; J4 lb., 55c; 
1 lb,, $1.55; 5 lbs., $6.55 Postpaid. 
A few years ago the best cabbage seed came from Denmark and Holland, 
where it had been raised for many years, but in the last few years the 
American cabbage seed growers in the Pacific North West, by improved 
methods, careful selection, breeding and extensive trials have made 
American cabbage seed famous the world over, supplying many of the 
markets formerly served by Denmark and Holland. 
CULTURE; For early heads, sow seeds in hotbed or cold frame. 
Transplant in April or early May into rows where you want them. Use 
only strong plants, two feet apart to the row. For late or winter cabbage, 
sow in the open ground as late as July 1st,—18 inches to two feet apart 
in the row, according to varieties. One ounce for 3000 plants / 2 -pound 
of seed per acre. 
Danish Ballhead Disease Resistant 
DISEASE RESISTANT 
CABBAGE SEED 
In many sections of the United 
States entire fields of Cabbage fail 
to mature or produce heads on ac¬ 
count of the yellows or yellow rot. 
If, by any chance, your field or 
fields in your vicinity are affected 
with this disease, you should plant 
Disease Resistant Cabbage Seed. 
The University of Wisconsin, by 
selection and breeding, has made it 
possible for us to offer you this 
Disease Resistant Seed. 
• DANISH BALLHEAD 
This strain of Danish Ballhead is 
larger than the regular strain, 
about one week later and with 
slightly longer stems. The best

which closely resembles Copenhagen Market in 
type. As its name implies it is a money-maker. 
It is 8 to 10 days earlier than Copenhagen Market,
