Its groat value lies in its being a First Furly FLA T cabbage, a type much preferred 
over pointed heads by most people, and it will readily be seen that this variety, 
with all of the merits of Early Summer, only a trifle smaller, which 
can be cut as early as Jersey Wakefield, is destined to secure a 
prominent and lasting place among vegetables. The variety is of 
Early Summer type, but about one-fifth smaller, having only four 
or five outside leaves, and these so small and growing so near to 
the head, that it may be successfully planted twenty-one inches 
apart, 13,500 to the acre, as close as any variety we know of. It 
possesses wonderful uniformity in shape, being round, slightly 
flattened at top of head. Stem is short and extends but little into 
the head; this feature is valuable, as it makes almost the entire head 
edible. The whole plant Is finely bred; there is no suggestion of 
coarseness whatever; tho veining of the leaves and leaf stems is 
particularly fine, the whole head being perfect throughout. There 
is no cabbage we know of having a more solid head ; but, added 
to this, it has the peculiarity 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. It is entirely 
free from any rankness of flavor. Its uniformity in shape and 
large yield per acre render it particularly valuable for truckers, 
and its compact form and good quality will render it the finest Early 
cabbage for every private gardon. (See cut.)

E XTRACTS CUSTOMERS’ LETTERS W 
about HENDERSON’S “EARLY 
ire Imre finished cutting the no «• Enrl. r Spring Cabhnge, and 
. must say that it is the earliest of all flat cabbages known to us. 
Every plant made a perfect head and a good size, averaging thirty 
two heads to the crate. We set this cabbage the same distance apart 
as the Early Summer. This was wrong, for it has very little foliage 
and can be grown as close as the Charleston Waketleld, i. o., about 
13,500 plants to the acre. It will make one-tliird more of a crop and 
be just as early as the Wakefield. It has a double advantage for this 
section, being early and flat .” — Gerraty & Towles, Charleston, S. C. 
“ Your Early Spring Cabbage is all you claim, the very best very early 
cabbage I have planted in twenty years, every one heading fine, not¬ 
withstanding they were cut down with the late frost. All my customers 
say, 4 Bring me some more Early Spring Cabbage.’ ” 
Tho Early Spring Cabbage is the finest I ever saw in this county. 
I had cabbage two weeks before any of my neighbors.” 
“ 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.” 
“ Your Early Spring Cabbage is the earliest and best I ever 
saw. The seed 1 had of you last year gave good results.” 
E. N. Randall, Barton, Vt. 
“7 had the only Early Spring Cabbage last year 
on our market, and it gave entire satisfaction. 
Jam very much pleased with it. 1 will send 
you another order for other seeds later.” 
W. T. McCutchen, Paducah, Ky.
