Burgess’ Cabbage Seed 
Treated Against Diseases 
In growing a profitable crop of Cabbage, much depends upon the seed 
planted. Our seed is carefully grown from selected heads and under the 
supervision of expert Cabbage seed growers. Our seed is also treated for 
the control of seed-borne fungus and bacterial diseases, such as damp¬ 
ing-off brown or black-rot, club-root, Fusarium wilt, known also as “yel¬ 
lows,” and black-leg, known also as wilt. By planting Burgess’ Disease- 
Treated Seed on soil that is free from disease you are reasonably assured 
of a good crop. If your soil is not free from disease, Formacide should 
be applied to the soil at the rate of 1 lb. to a 450 foot row. For price of 
Formacide, see page 123. 
One ounce of seed for 2,000 plants; '/ 2 lb. per acre. 
Our Lightning Express is ready for use in 68 to 70 days from sowing— 
Copenhagen Market ten days earlier than Jersey Wakefield. Good fair trials of varieties offered 
by other seed houses as “the earliest grown” have proved that they are 
from 4 to 10 days later than our Lightning Express. Lightning Express is positively the earliest Cabbage in cultivation. Heads 
pointed, of good size, a little smaller than Jersey Wakefield, always sure to head, solid and firm and always in demand on the mar¬ 
ket, bringing high prices on account of their extreme earliness. Very hardy, permitting earliest planting. There are but few outer 
leaves and plants may therefore be set closely together. As many as 14,000 heads can be grown on one acre of ground, and will 
bring a larger profit per acre than later and heavier varieties. Pkt., 10c; oz., 30c; % lb., 90c; 
lb., $3.00; 2 lbs., $5.40; 5 lbs., $12.00, postpaid. For prices of plants, see page 12.

EARLIEST ROUND HEAD CABBAGE 
Our special strain of this wonderful Cabbage will mature hard, round heads, nine inches in 
diameter, of five pounds each, in 'about 75 days from time of sowing seed. Uniform in size 
and growth; compact in habit, with few outer leaves, permitting close planting. The heads 
are firm and solid and fully equal to any of the late sorts, and will stand in the field for a 
month or more without bursting. The most profitable variety to raise for the early market.

Copenhagen Market 
One of the most valuable varieties for the home garden and one of the most profitable for 
market gardeners. With the exception of Golden Acre, it is the earliest round-headed Cabbage. 
In season it ranks with Early Jersey Wakefield, which it will outyield two to one in weight of 
crop on a given area. When ready for cutting, Copenhagen Market is the heaviest of the extra- 
early varieties and is as good, in its class, as the old favorite Danish Ballhead. The stem is 
short; the head is round and solid, averaging 8 to 10 pounds each, and uniform in shape and 
size. A vigorous grower and an excellent keeper. The heads all mature at one time, and 
will stand longer without bursting than other early sort. Pkt., 5c; oz., 20c; % lb., 60c; 
lb., $2.00; 2 lbs., $3.60; 5 lbs., $8.50, postpaid. For prices of plants, see page 12.
