Henderson’s Early Spring Cabbage. 
An Extra 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 outside leaves, 
and these so small that it may be planted twenty-one inches apart. Remembering that this isa first 
early flat variety, the shape that is so popular, and that it is ready fully a week earlier than any 
sort like it, its value can be readily appreciated. It is finely bred, the stem is short, and the vein- 
ing of the leaves particularly fine. There is no Cabbage we know of having a more solid head ; it 
has also the peculiarity of heading firmly at an early stage, sc that the finest Cabbage, though 
small, can be obtained iong 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 Cabbage for private gardens. ( See cut.) Price, 10c. p’d:., 40c. oz., $1.20 % lb., $4.00 lb.

Every head as uniform as if 
moulded and remarkably 
solid even when young. 
Small outside leaves. 
Small Veins. 
Fine texture and delicate flavor. 
THE WAY PEOPLE TALK ABOUT 
HENDEKSON'S 
EARLY SPRING CABBAGE 
“We planted this season sonie of your Early 
Spring Cabbage and pronounce it the finest 
cabbage u>e ever greiv in fifteen years of experi¬ 
ence. ” J. H. MOORE & SON, Raleigh, N. C. 
“We bought one packet of your Early Spring 
Cabbage last Spring and considered them the 
finest early Cabbage we ever grew. They were 
about five days ahead of the Wakefield 
K. P. APGAR, Winchester, Va. 
“1 have heads now of your Early Spring Cab¬ 
bage that weigh 5 lbs., that were planted eleven 
weeks ago. Your Early Spring ivill take the 
place of the Wakefield or Charleston with me." 
JOHN CASE, Lexington, Ky. 
HENDERSON'S 
WAKEFIELD CABBAGE 
REPUTATION. 
“Had Peter Henderson done nothing else but 
introduce the Early Wakefield Cabbage, it 
would be a lasting monument to his name. No 
belter variety is in cultivation to-day among the 
early kinds:'—COUNTRY GENTLEMAN. 
“ Henderson's Jersey Wakefield Cabbage is 
the best, and I have tried seeds from a number 
of good seedsmen. Henderson s Wakefield is a 
reliable header, making 05 to ioo per cent, of 
solid heads." W. J .SHANE, Lexington, V a. 
“ Your Charleston Wakefield Cabbage is a 
wonder, many heads weighing 8, io, and 12 
lbs., as solid as a rock. Out of 8oo only 20 
failed to head; it seems to be a cabbage of great 
vitality, and the worms and lice damage it but 
little. ” O. B . ST A U FFER, Rocky Ford, Colo. 
HENDERSON'S ORIGINAL EARLY JERSEY 
Wakefield Cabbage. 
THE BEST FIRST EARLY. 
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 First Early Cabbages combined. It is the good, 
old reliable, always depended upon for its uniformity in earli¬ 
ness and crop. Among its merits may also be mentioned its 
large size of head for so early a variety and the small outside 
foliage, allowing it to be closely planted; the heads are pyram¬ 
idal in shape, having a blunted or rounded peak. We believe 
our selected stock has no equal. (See cut.) Price, 10c. pkt., 
35c. oz., $1.00 lb., $3.50 lb. 
H enderson-s Charleston 
OR LARGE WAKEFIELD CABBAGE. 
The Best Large Early Cabbage. 
For some years past customers have requested us to procure 
for them, if possible, a Cabbage which had all the character¬ 
istics of the Early Jersey Wakefield, but of greater size. With 
this in view, we carefully selected from one of our best stocks 
of Wakefield a larger type, which is now so fixed in its char¬ 
acter that we can offer it with confidence to those desiring a 
Cabbage of this kind. This selection will average about 50 per 
cent, larger in size than the old type of Wakefield, and is only 
a few days later. Price, 10c. pkt., 35c. oz., $1.00 l /£ lb., $3.50 lb.
