CABBAGE: 
der to all of

“ Your Autumn King Cabbage was 
m y friends, and weighed 20 to 28 pounds per head. 1 sha . 
always use and praise your seeds.’'— Mrs. John Mkykkh, 
Erhart, Ohio. 
“ Ialways find that while your garden seeds are some- 
what higher than seeds of the local dealer, they are always 
also of a higher grade of excellence and ahrays true to 
name and description, and for your Autumn King Cab¬ 
bage I cannot say too much in its praise as to productive¬ 
ness, (ptality and keeping qualities. I have them now in 
the cellar in good condition. —F. 1*. BLANCHARD, Sanford 
Corner, Me. 
" l must say that the Autumn Kina Cabbage is the only 
Cabbage that stands the drouth and all kinds of weather. 
II "e had a flue yield while all others failed." —J. M. MuiK, 
West Salem, Ohio. 
**7 must say that 1 have found the Autumn King Cab¬ 
bage the best Cabbage for Autumn work I erer had." —W. 
E. Tidy, Springbourne, Bournemouth, England. 
t, The Autumn King Cabbage Seed I have bought from you 
annually since 1890. I have raised from them Cabbages 
that could not be surjxissed in size anil solidity of heads. 
It has been with me an all-year-round Cabbage." —A. M. 
Kixbrrlin, Zanesville, Ohio. 
“ We had 1,000 plants of Autumn King Cabbage from you 
last year, and, considering the terrible dry season tee had, 
I think there is no other Cabbage like it either for pickling 
or for other winter use ."—I*. M. Alexander, Canton, O. 
“ The Autumn King Cabbage gave large solid heads, IS 
to 18 pounds, as stated in catalogue. It received nothing 
but praise from all who saw it ."—Rout. Smith, Louis¬ 
ville, Ky. 
“ The Autumn King Cabbage is the. best late variety for 
this country I have ever struck. The water was all over 
my garden the 9th of November, and I was obliged to 
gather the Flat Dutch varieties, but the Autumn King is 
still out and is in good condition. The water being over 
the heads did not make them burst. It is a King among 
Cabbage." —Wm. Uugq, Bridgeport, Conn. 
“ From your Autumn King Cabbage Seed I have raised 
the finest Cabbages that I ever sair. Some of the heads 
<after being trimmed ready for market) tceighed 19 pounds 
in September. It is very tender and of fine flavor " —L. A. 
Kino, Mexico, Mo. 
“? sent a specimen of your Autumn King Cabbage to 
the Sioux City Corn I’ulace. It weighed 27% pounds, and 
I will wager $ioo that I can raise more pounds to the ioo 
heads than any other grower can with any other variety. 
I sold 200 heads to one man that averaged 22 % pounds to 
the head ."—J. W. Kelly, Sanborn, Iowa. 
Henderson’s “Autumn King” Cabbage. 
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, and, specially grown, often 
reaches 25 to 30 lbs. each. Flavor especially fine. It Is the best winter keeper. 
T HIS peerless variety we introduced, and we 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 shado that is most desirable in 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 Kino Is 
the peculiarly crimped leaves, which not only add to its appearance, but enable it to be 
distinguished anywhere. 
So distinct is the 
Autumn Kino that the veriest novice can 
readily tell it in the trial grounds at a 
glance, and yet, notwithstanding this dis¬ 
tinctiveness, a Long Island grower succeed¬ 
ed in foisting it under a new 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 mention this 
that our customers may not be misled. If 
you want the true Autumn Kino Cabbage, 
send to us, who introduced it. The engrav¬ 
ing gives a good idea of its appearance.
