MANGEL WURZELS AND SUGAR BEETS—Continued. 
Golden Tankard.—One ol the most nu¬ 
tritious varieties in cultivation; 
flesh deep yellow, very productive. 
Per packet, 6 cents; ounce, 10 
cents; fourth pound, 20 cents; 
pound, 60 cents. 
Kinver Yellow Glohe.—This superior 
variety was introduced several 
years ago and has given universal 
satisfaction wherever it has been 
tested. It possesses distinctive 
features in size, shape and color. 
Unlike the ordinary Globe Mangel, 
it is of greater girth at the top or 
shoulder than at the middle of the 
root, whence it gradually tapers to 
a perfect tap-root. Its skin,which 
is as fine as that of an apple, is, as 
far as it penetrates the soil, of a 
bright orange tint. It is of superb 
quality, and an enormous cropper, 
the great weight of eighty-four 
tons per acre having been grown, 
and single roots weighing forty-live 
pounds. Per packet, 6 cents; ounce, 
10 cents, fourth pound, 20 cents, 
pound, 50 cents. 
Improved Mammoth Prize Long Bed 
Mangel.—The heaviest cropping 
and best long Mangel. This mam¬ 
moth variety grows to an immense 
size, single roots weighing twenty 
to forty pounds each, and always 
of very fine texture and good qual¬ 
ity. It is remarkable for the broad 
shoulder and massive shape of the root, by which a greater weight is obtained, 
without that coarseness inherent in unimproved strains of seed. It has produced 
from sixty to seventy five tons of roots per acre, and is most valuable for stock 
feeding. At the Smithfleld Club Cattle Show specimens were shown weighing 
fifty pounds. Per packet, 5 cents; ounce, 10 cents; fourth pound, 20 cents; 
pound, 50 cents. 
Yellow Globe.—This variety is Intermediate in shape between the Long Red and 
Yellow Globe. It is a very handsome root, with remarkably high shoulders, 
neat top and few leaves. It is nearly as broad at top as at bottom, and the re¬ 
sult is that every root is very heavy. It produces a great weight per acre. It is 
very solid and massive, and having only one tap-root, is easily gathered and re¬ 
quires little labor in cleaning. The deep yellow color of its skin, and its rich¬ 
ness in saccharine matter and flesh-forming substance, make this root a favorite 
with leading farmers. It is a most excellent sort for shallow and light soils. 
Per packet, 5 cents; ounce, 10 cents; fourth pound, 20 cents; pound, 50 cents. 
The Cabbage Seed that I 
offer ig the very best in the 
market. Realizing that no 
crop that is grown by the 
market gardener is so im¬ 
portant to him, I have 
spared no expense to have 
the very best Seed that can 
be grown, and can assure 
all my cnstomers that It 
will give perfect satisfac¬ 
tion. Give my Cabbage 
Seed a trial, and yon will 
be sure to come again. 
Cabbage Earliest.—See il¬ 
lustration and description 
in novelties. Per packet, 
10 cents, ounce, 25 cents, 
one - fourth pound, 80 
cents, pound.|3.00. 
CABBAGE—Continued. 
All Seasons.—A very promising new Cabbage. In quality no Drumhead Cabbage 
can surpass it, while in sweetness, tenderness and richness of flavor it is very 
superior, ranking equal to the Oxheart class. Per packet, 10 cents, ounce, 50 
cents, pound.$6.00. 
New Early Peerless.—A variety almost as early as Jersey Wakefield, forming much 
larger heads, very uniform round shape, fine grained and tender; has few leaves 
and can be pianted very close; highly recommended. Per packet, 10 cents, 
ounce, 25 cents, one-fourth pound, 75 cents, pound.$2.50. 
Jersey Wakefield.— 
Many experi¬ 
enced market 
gardeners consi¬ 
der this the very 
best “First 
Early Cab¬ 
bage.” It is 
certainly deserv¬ 
ing of its great 
popularity, and 
is doubtless 
grown for mar¬ 
ket more exten¬ 
sively than any 
other eariy Cab¬ 
bage. It has been 
our aim to have 
the very finest 
strain of so im¬ 
portant a vari¬ 
ety, and from Jersey Wakefield Cabbage, 
careful compar¬ 
ative tests of all the leading strains, we can knowingiy recommend ours as un¬ 
rivalled, remarkably true and good, sure to give excellent satisfaction. It heads 
up remarkably hard and solid. The heads are pyramidal in shape, generally 
pointed at the end, and, having few outside leaves, the plants can be set close 
together. The heads are of excellent quality, and large for so early a Cabbage. 
Being a shy seeder when grown from hard heads, the seed is necessarily high in 
price. Our seed is extra fine American grown. Per packet, 5 cents, ounce, 30 
cents, one-fourth pound, 80 cents, pound.$3.00. 
Henderson’s Early Summer.—The earliest large-heading Cabbage. Growth com¬ 
pact, so that they may be set as close as the smaller sorts. Heads large, flat, 
or slightly conical, handsome, and they keep longer without bursting than most 
of the early sorts. Valuable for both family and market. Per packet, 5 cents, 
ounce, 25 cents, one-fourth pound, 80 cents, pound.$3.00. 
Early Bleichfield Giant.—It matures even earlier than the celebrated Fottler’s 
Brunswick, which has always been considered the earliest of the large, hard- 
heading Drumheads. It is a short-stemmed sort,with very large and solid dark- 
green heads, and is very reliable lor heading. Owing to the great solidity of the 
heads, they remain in use for a long period. They are very tender and of excel¬ 
lent flavor. Per packet, 10 cents, ounce, 25 cents, one-fourth pound, 75 cents, 
pound .$2.50. 
Large York.—The parent ol this well-known variety is the English Large York (a 
larger sort than the English Early York). The American descendant has the ad¬ 
vantage of increased size, hardiness, and ability to stand both heat and cold. It 
was long the most trusted sortwitfe market gardeners, and is still eagerly sought 
after, as well as by private families. Its hardy constitution insures heads even 
under adverse circumstances. Per packet, 5 cents, ounce, 15 cents, one-fourth 
pound, 35 cents, pound.$1.25. 
Early Flat Dutch.—Heads large, broad and roundish, or nearly flat, sometimes 
slightiy conical. Very tender, fine grained, and ol excellent flavor. Originated 
on Long Island, where it is a favorite second early with market gardeners. Per 
packet, 6 cents, ounce 20 cents, one-fourth pound, 60 cents, pound.$2.00. 
Large, French O 5 Heart.—A fine heart-shaped Cabbage, coming into use after 
other earlier sorts, very tender and fine-flavored, and heads freely. Per packet, 
5 cents, ounce, 20 cents, pound.$1'75. 
Bloomsdale Early Brnnswick (True Stock, Extra Flue).—This is the earliest and 
best of the large hard-heading Drumheads. It heads shortly after the early sorts, 
and is most excellent for second early or Summer, and is also admirably adapted 
for Fall or Winter. Heads often weigh twenty to thirty pounds each. Very hard 
and firm, ripens in eighty-five days, and quality very fine. Per packet, 5 cents, 
ounce, 25 cents, one-fourth pound, 75 cents, pound.$2.50. 
Early Wlnningstadt.—A well-known and very popular early variety, in season very 
close to the “Wakefield.” Heads large, decidedly conical, leaves bright glossy 
green, heads remarkably solid and hard, even in Summer, and is also suitable 
for Fall and Winter use. Highly recommended. Per packet, 5 cents, ounce, 15 
cents, one-fourth pound, 50 cents, pound.$1.50. 
Filderkrant.—Good for early or late use. Pointed or conical head. Very solid, 
almost as solid as marble, and sure to head. It is a great favorite with Ger> 
mans for the manufacture of “ kraut.” See illustration on following page. Per 
packet, 5 cents, ounce, 20 cents, one-fourth pound, 50 cents, pound.$2.00.
