FORREST’S HONEST SEEDS 
CABBAGE—Continued 
The New Lupton —The “Thoroughbred” American Cabbage. This is one of the few “blue- 
blooded” American cabbages, which was recently introduced by J. M. Lupton, the cabbage 
expert of Long Island. It is a medium late sort, somewhat on the Flat Dutch type, with a short 
thick stem, which does not extend far in the head, and therefore having but little core, and the 
leaves, which are of a dark bluish-green color, extend well across the center, and while the head 
is large, it has none of the attendant features of coarseness. It is particularly adapted to culti¬ 
vation in the West, as it withstands the hot, dry summer better than any other sort we are ac¬ 
quainted with. Honest pkt. 5c, oz. 15c, ]/± lb. 50c, lb. $1.75. 
Forrest’s Short-Stem Drum Head— In this cabbage nobody will be disappointed. 
It far surpasses the old-fashioned strains. It forms a very large, solid, uniform, flattened head 
of handsome appearance. Bred to a very short stem, the plants are so dwarfed that heads appear 
to rest on the soil. One of the best cabbages for the south and the southwest. Honest pkt. 5c, 
oz. 10c, lb. 40c, lb. $1.50. 
The Houser Cabbage —The introducers say: The largest hard heading, fine grained, smallest 
hearted cabbage known. About two weeks later than Flat Dutch. Heads large, solid, often 
weighing 12 to 14 lbs. Honest packet 5c, oz. 10c, }4 lb. 40c, lb. $1.50, postpaid. 
Red Danish Ball-Head —The best red cabbage. This new cabbage is identical with Danish 
Ball-head, excepting that it is a beautiful dark-red clear through. Very hard heading, and 
largely grown in this section for shipping to New York, Philadelphia, and other markets for 
pickling; and always brings higher prices. Price, honest packet 5c, oz. 20c, x /i lb. 75c, lb. $2.50. 
North King —True Danish. Our North King strain of Danish Ball-head is one of the 
best strains in this country. This cabbage is more largely grown in the north than all other 
winter cabbages together, and has become the standard of excellence on the markets of the United 
States. Our true Danish seed is 
grown especially for us in Den¬ 
mark by one of the most critical 
growers, guaranteed true, har¬ 
vested on personally selected 
typical plants; and produces a 
perfect type entirely free from 
deformed loose heads. The heads 
are medium sized, extremely 
hard and fine grained, and will 
weigh from a quarter to a half 
more than any other variety of 
equal size. There is no better 
strain to be had than we offer you 
at honest prices. Honest packet 
5c, oz. 20c, x /i lb. 75c, lb. $2.50. 
Danish Round Head— This 
cabbage differs from the above, 
being two weeks earlier, heads 
average larger, and a little fuller 
than the Ball-head; stems are 
more dwarf, and has less outer leaves, and will yield more pounds to the acre. From our exper¬ 
ience in this, probably the largest, cabbage-growing section in the United States, we find it is not 
as good for storing as the Pure Danish Ball-head. Price, honest packet 5c, oz. 20c, J4. lb. 75c, 
lb. $2.50.
