CABBAGE 
Cabbage 
For Cabbage Seed, Cabbage Plants, and Cabbage 
Information, We Are Headquarters. 
We are large growers and shippers of Cabbage, growing 
and shipping hundred of cars yearly. We test and try 
out on our vegetable farms, every new introduction of 
cabbage and the varieties listed herein are those found 
to be best adapted to the soil and climatic conditions of 
the West and Middle West. 
Culture: No satisfactory results can be obtained where 
poor seed is planted. A heavy moist rich loam is most 
suitable. The ground should be well fertilized, deeply 
plowed (fall plowed if possible). For early planting sow 
seeds of the early varieties in hotbeds the latter part of 
January or the first part of February. For second early, 
sow in March and April, in hotbeds or cold frames. For 
late varieties, sow outside in April and May. The plants 
should be set in rows 2% to 3 feet apart and from 12 to 
18 inches apart in the rows, according to the richness of 
the soil—the richer the soil the closer they may be grown. 
The cabbage worm and aphis are the most common cabbage 
pests. Paris Green and arsenate of lead are very effective 
but dangerous as they are very poisonous to humans. We 
recommend using Cubor for worms, and Nicotine or Cubor 
for aphis. See page 70. 
Copenhagen Market

fine extra early cabbage, in fact, the earliest round head 
variety maturing uniformly and all heads about at the 
same time. Heads are round, very firm, bright green 
color, about 8 to 12 inches in diameter. The stalk is 
very short, plants can be set close together. Each year

European Market. An extra early cabbage. 70 to 72 days. 
All extra early varieties of cabbage are usually very 
light yielders, but our European Market is both extra 
early and a heavy yielder. It follows Golden Acre, 
being only about 4 days later but is a much heavier 
yielder and a better header. It is about 5 days earlier 
than Copenhagen Market and produces a heavier yield 
of round, solid heads of nice green color. It is an excel¬ 
lent shipping variety and year in and year out European 
Market is the most profitable cabbage than can be 
grown. Pkt., 10c; oz., 30c; Vi lb., 85c; lb., $2.75, postpaid. 
Golden Acre—Selected 
Copenhagen Market. 72 to 78 days. A splendid early, 
round head sort, head averaging 5 to 8 pounds in weight. 
The compact growth of the plant, the solidity of the 
head, its excellent flavor and extreme earliness, all com¬ 
bine to make Copenhagen Market one of the most meri¬ 
torious cabbages that has come to our notice during our 
experience in handling cabbage. It is very popular 
with the market gardeners, being short stemmed and 
maturing the heads all at the same time. Gold Seal 
Quality. Pkt., 10c; oz., 25c; y 4 lb., 80c; lb., $2.50, postpaid. 
Louisiana Copenhagen. This early cabbage was bred to 
withstand low temperature, therefore, can be set in the 
field very early. Does not bolt to seed. Outyields 
Golden Acre but is slightly later. It yields as much as 
Copenhagen Market but is earlier. Pkt., 10c; y 2 oz., 20c; 
i/ 4 lb., $1.00; i/ 2 lb., $1.75; lb., $3.00. 
Glory of Enkhuizen. 80 to 85 days. This variety is now 
the leading and most desirable midseason cabbage be¬ 
cause it is very dependable as a crop producer. Heads 
are good size, solid, round in shape, good green color. 
It matures a little later than Copenhagen Market and 
just before the Hollander and Danish Roundhead. Ex¬ 
cellent shipping and early kraut variety. Our seed is 
grown for us in Holland by a specialist. Pkt., 10c; 
oz., 20c; V 4 lb., 75c; lb., $2.25, postpaid. 
Danish Roundhead Short Stem. (Selected.) (Gold Seal 
Quality.) 98 to 105 days. This is the most popular of 
all late varieties for fall and winter use. It is an earlier, 
shorter stemmed, improved strain of the Danish Ballhead. 
The heads are the right market size—not too large, very 
solid and heavy, weighing fully a fourth more than other 
varieties of equal size. It is less liable to blight and 
disease and makes vigorous growth even in hot weather.
