HENDERSON'S ORIGINAL^ 
Early Jersey Wakefield 
The Best First-Early Pointed-Head Cabbage 
This Cabbage, though introduced years ago by the late Peter 
Henderson, still holds its undisputed lead as the best extra-early 
pointed-head Cabbage, and is more largely grown than all other 
first-early Cabbages combined. It is the good, old reliable; and 
may be depended upon for uniformity in earliness and crop. The 
head is large enough for so early a variety and the small outside 
leaves enable it to be planted closely; the heads are pyramidal in 
shape, having a blunted or rounded peak. It is beyond question the 
best variety for spring and early summer in the private garden. 
Its first appearance brings a welcome change from the hard-headed 
winter sorts, for Early Jersey Wakefield is attractive in appearance 
and essentially good in quality. 
It has a delicacy of flavor rarely associated with Cabbage, and 
properly cooked may be made one of the most palatable and appe¬ 
tizing dishes, and worthy of a place on any table. ( See engraving .)

“Had Peter Henderson done nothing else but introduce the Early Jersey 
Wakefield Cabbage, it would be a lasting monument to his name. No 
better variety is in cultivation to-day among the early kinds ."— Country 
Gentleman. 
“/ think your seeds are splendid and the best we ever planted. Our 
Wakefield cabbages last year were splendid, all headed up fine, which 
surprised me, as the seasons here arc so short, and neighbors said we would 
not have any cabbage at all. We sold cabbages later to those who said so.

HENDERSON’S 
Charleston Wakefield 
HENDERSON’S 
Second-Early Pointed-IIead Cabbage 
The pointed-head Cabbages are preferable to the larger flat kinds. 
When used fresh from the garden they are of excellent quality, 
quite free from the coarse rankness so commonly associated with 
Cabbage. Heiiderson’s Charleston Wakefield is larger, but fully 
equal in quality to any of its class and admirably suited to succeed 
the very early sorts. Price, 10c. pkt., 85c. oz., $3.20 34 lb., 
$12.00 ib. 
“Your Charleston Wakefield Cabbage is a wonder, many heads weighing 
8, 10 and 12 lbs., as solid as a rock." 
O. B. STAUFFER, Rocky Ford, Colo. 
“I tried your Early Spring Cabbage last year, and 1 think it deserves a 
better recommendation than you give it in your catalogue." 
D. J. DARKES, 
Fredericksburg, Pa. 
“I tried Henderson s Early Spring last year for the first time and I must 
say it fills a place we have so long wanted a Cabbage for. The leaves are so 
small you can plant it 18 inches apart. The head is very early, very hard and 
small to medium in size, and is ideal for the housewife." 
Dr. E. A. LEE, 
Jennings, La. 
Early Spring Cabbage 
The only Extra-Early Round Flat-Headed Cabbage. 
Every Head as uniform as if moulded, and remarkably solid even when young. 
Few and small outside leaves. Small Veins. Fine Texture and Delicate Flavor. 
Its great value lies in its being a First-Early Flat Cabbage, a type 
much preferred over pointed heads by many people. It is of the Early 
Summer type, but about one-fifth smaller, and has only four to five out¬ 
side leaves, and these so small that it may be planted 21 inches apart, 
13,500 to the acre. Remembering that this is a first-early flat variety, 
the shape that is so popular on all markets, and that it is ready fully a 
week earlier than any sort like it, its value can be readily appreciated. 
The stem is short, making almost the whole plant edible. It is finely 
bred, the veining of the leaves being particularly fine. There is no 
Cabbage we know of having a more solid head; it has also the peculiar¬ 
ity of heading firmly at an early stage in its growth, so that the finest 
Cabbage, though small, can be obtained long before it has attained its 
mature size. Its shape and large yield per acre make it particularly 
valuable for truckers, and its good quality will render it the finest early 
fiat-headed Cabbage for private gardens. (See engraving.) Price, 
10c. pkt., 50c. oz., $1.60 34 lb., $6.00 lb.
