HENDERSON'S ORIGINAL EARLY JERSEY 
Wakefield Cabbage 
THE BEST FIRSTTARLY 
This Cabbage, though introduced years ago by the late Peter 
Henderson, still holds its undisputed lead as the best extra early 
variety in cultivation, and is more largely grown than all other 
Pirst-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 \-ariety 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 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 cut.) Price, 
10 c. pkt., 3Sc. oz., $1.20 lb., $4.00 lb. 
“I have been growing your Early Jersey Wakefield Cabbage for a number of years 
eind think it my duly to tell you that it takes the lead in Early Cabbage in this 
part of the country.” CIIAS. II. McKENNA, Marietta, Ohio. 
“ Think your seeds the best we ever planted. Our Cabbage last year was splendid, 
oil headed fine which surprised zis. as we were told that the seasons were so short 
here that we would not have any cabbage at all. We were pleased to sell cabbage to 
the same ones who said it. ’ Mrs. CIi.’{.CE J EMSEM, Island Pond, I t. 
“Lester Bros, of Des Moines, Iowa, had the best Cabbage for surnmer use grow7i 
from your seed that I ever saw. Look up their last year's orders, atid send me the 
same amouiit and kind of cabbage they ordered of you last year. 1 want some of 
the same kmd of seed (it was Early Jersey Wakefield).”

Succession Cabbage, from April 1st to May 15th. For prices, see Page 182. 
The pointed-headed Cabbages are preferable 
to the larger flat kinds. lichen used fresh from the 
garden they are of excellent quality, quite free from 
the coase rankness so commonly associated with 
Cabbage. Henderson’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., 40c. oz., $1.25 14 lb., $4.50 lb. 
“ Your Charleston Wakefield Cabbage is a worider, many 
heads weighing 8, 10 and IS lbs., as solid as a rock. Out of 
800 only SO failed to head; it seems to be a cabbage of great 
vitality, aftd the worms and lice damage it but little.”

Early Market 
CABBAGE 
This Danish production is highly praised by all 
who have grown it. Its uniformity to type is 
marvellous. Every row and every head in the 
row look as nearly alike as if all had been turned 
out of a mold. The plant is small, with short stem, 
and few outer leaves. These have the excellent 
habit of curving inward, thus providing protection 
to the head, and so effectually economizing space 
that it may be planted 2! inches apart— at least 
50% closer than any variety with a head of similar 
size. 
Early Market Cabbage is but three or four days 
later than our Early Jersey Wakefield, and will 
yield a greater crop per acre than any other early 
Cabbage. 
For home use its remarkably fine quality and 
tenderness will be greatly appreciated. The whole 
plant is well bred. There is an entire absence of 
coarse veins and leaves, and it has the quality 
peculiar to some of the best sorts, of hardening the 
head before it has attained its mature size. (See ail.)

■''The H Ih. of Early Market cabbage purchased from you proved a great success. We planted it 
same day os Charleston and cut it Jt days earlier. It also did well with me as a midsummer variety.”
