VEGETABLE SEED 
CABBAGE. 
“ The Autumn King Cabbage Seed I hare bought n om y »i 
annually since 1800. I hare raised f rom (hen, Cabbages that 
could not be surpassed in size and solidity of heads. It has been 
xcith me an all-year-round Caltbagc.” 
'' I take great pleasure in stating that your Ai d'" nn King and 
Succession Cabbages are the finest and the only Cabltagc that ice 
plant." 
“ We had 1.000 plants of Autumn King Cabbage from you 
last year, and, considering the terrible dry season ice had. I 
th ink there is no other Cabbage like it cither for piclding or for 
other winter use." 
“I cannot speak too highly in praise of the Autumn Kinf/ 
Cabbage. I had heads last year that neighed, trimmed, 1J tbs. 
“ The Autumn King Cabbage gore large solid heads. In to 
18 lbs., as stated in catalogue. It received nothing but praise 
from all i cho saw it. 
“ Your Autumn King Cabbage I prefer to all others, both as 
to flavor as wed as size and solidity of head, and I think itwould 
be hard to find a better keeper. It certainly is a success. 
“ The Autumn King Cabbage is the best late rarietyfor this 
country I hare erer struck. The ,rater was all over my '/"' den 
the 9 th of Nor. ember and I was obliged to gather the 1 lat Dutch 
rarirtie*. but the Autumn Shu, >» ylill ont and U inanodcnn- 
dition. The water being over the heads did not make them burst. 
It is a King among Cabbage.” 
1 1 The Autumn King Cabbage which I purchased of you last 
year was the finest I erer raise!. It measured I / inches across 
the heads, and some weighed I I lbs. each. Hay are the best 
keepers. I do not think any one in my town had such Cablxigc 
as I had.” 
“ From your Autumn King Cabbage Seed I hare raised the 
finest Cabin, yes that I ever saw. .Some of the heads (after be, ng 
t rimmed ready for market) weighed 19 lbs. in September. 1 1 is 
very tender and ofjinejlacor 
“/ sent a specimen of your Autumn King Cabbage to the 
Sioux City Corn Palace. It weighed 27\4 and I will wager 
§100 that I can raise more pounds to the 100 lands than any 
other grower can with any other ninety. I sold 200 heads to 
one man that averaged 22% lbs. to the head.” 
Is the superior of all other Winter Cabbages. Interior creamy white, compact and crisp. 
Enormous solid heads, averaging IS to 18 lbs. Unequaled for cooking or slicing. 
Measuring 36 to 40 inches'in circumference, Flavor especially fine. 
and specially grown, often reaches 25 to the best winter keep er. 
30 lbs. each. 
T .HIS peerless variety we introduced, and wo will say without hesitation, all 
statements to the contrary notwithstanding, that it is the finest late Cabbage 
in this country to-day, entirely distinct, and the best keeper; it produces 
enormous, solid heads of that glaucous green shade that is most desirable m 
a Cabbage. It has also such small outer leaves that it can be planted much closer 
together than the ordinary late sorts, and it can be relied upon to produce a greater 
weight of crop per acre than any other variety, from the fact 
that it produces very few outer leaves and goes all to head. 
A distinctive feature of the Autumn King is the pecu¬ 
liarly crimped leaves, which not only add to its appear¬ 
ance, but enable it to bo distinguished anywhere. So 
distinct is the Autumn King that the veriest novice 
can readily tell it in ttie trial grounds at a glance, and 
yet, notwithstanding this distinctiveness, a Long Isl¬ 
and grower succeeded in foisting it under a now name 
on a Philadelphia firm of seedsmen. It is only fair to 
say that on having their attention called to the matter 
they have in a way acknowledged their error. We men¬ 
tion this that our customers may not be misled. If you 
want the true Autumn King Cabbage, send to us who 
introduced it. The engraving gives a good idea of its 
appearance. Price, 10c. pkt., 40c. oz., $1.2o )4 lb., $3.o0 lb.
