Cabbage 
One ounce for 2000 plants; y^lb. to Vzlb. for an acre 
Our Yellows-Resistant seed, saved from plants which 
survived on badly yellows-infested fields, will grow good 
crops on “Cabbage sick” land. 
Golden Acre 
Golden Acre Special. Resembles 
Copenhagen Market but the 
medium-sized, round, firm heads, 
4 to 5 pounds each, mature a few 
days earlier. The dwarf, compact 
plants can be set closely, giving a 
heavy yield of uniform heads. 
Golden Acre, Super Strain. This 
is produced in Denmark by the 
originator of Golden Acre and Golden Acre Cabbage 
there is no strain which excels it. Our Golden Acre Special is fine but this Super 
Strain is wonderfully uniform, every plant heading perfectly. It is certainly well 
worth the extra cost if you want to get the very best. 
Yellows-Resistant Golden Acre. This is the very earliest round-headed yellows- 
resistant variety and is more uniformly true to type than any other strain. It 
has all of the characteristics of Golden Acre and matures fully 10 days earlier 
than Yellows-Resistant Marion Market. 
Copenhagen Market 
Copenhagen Market, Early. The round, solid heads, larger than Golden Acre, are 
of fine quality and very uniform. The light green leaves fold tightly and com¬ 
pactly over one another. Plants are short-stemmed, with heads just above the 
ground. A few days later than Golden Acre. The inside of the head is fine¬ 
grained, tender, white and compact. 
Copenhagen Market, Midseason. This matures about ten days later than the Copenhagen 
Market Early strain and gives a heavy yield of solid, uniform heads. 
Yellows-Resistant Copenhagen Market. Matures about ten days later than Copenhagen 
Market Early, but the almost-round, very hard heads ship exceedingly well. 
Yellows-Resistant Marion Market. A heavy yielder of round, hard heads like Copenhagen 
but the plant is larger. 
Ballhead Type 
Danish Roundhead, Short Stem. One of the best-keeping 
varieties. Heads are round, large, heavy, and very hard. 
Hollander. Vigorous, compact, short-stemmed plants with 
few, upright, large leaves. The very solid, round, medium¬ 
sized heads ship perfectly and keep well until late spring. 
Sure-heading, very hardy, and resists weather extremes. 
Hollander, Ferry’s. An extra-fine strain with very uniform, ex¬ 
tremely hard, round heads on short stems. Ships very well. 
Penn State Ballhead, Select. A very hard-heading se¬ 
lection of Danish Ballhead which yields an increased 
tonnage per acre. It may be planted closer because of 
restricted leaf-growth. The heads are solid, uniform, 
fine-grained, on short stems and keep well. 
• Yellows-Resistant Wisconsin Hollander No. 8. These hard, 
round “ Railheads,” slightly flattened, are unexcelled for storing. 
This variety is a very heavy yielder. 
Yellows-Resistant Red Hollander. Late in maturity and fine for 
storing. A heavy yielder and sure header. Not as large as 
Hollander Cabbage Mammoth Rock Red but uniformly darker red in color.
