CABBAGE 
K. 8C W. Selected Cabbage 
One ounce will produce about 3000 plants; 4 to 5 ounces to the acre. 
The Cabbage is one of the most important vegetables, and some of its varieties are universally cultivated. The 
ground must be highly manured, deeply dug or plowed, and thoroughly worked to insure good, full sized heads. 
A heavy, moist and fresh loam is the most suitable. The early sorts should be sown very early in the spring in 
hotbeds, or later in the open ground. 18 inches by 3 feet apart is the common distance.

ALL SEASON. Larger than Henderson’s Early Summer, 
nearly as early; very solid and sure heading. Pkt., 10c; 
oz., 35c; % lb., $1.25. 
COPENHAGEN MARKET. One of the best large, round 
head, early cabbages in cultivation, the type being 
thoroughly fixed and nearly all the heads maturing at 
the same time. The plant is short-stemmed; heads, 
set near the ground, and are solid, with a small core, 
and of fine quality. One of the very best early cab¬ 
bages for market gardeners. Pkt., 10c; oz., 35c; 14 lb., 
$1.25. 
DANISH BAEEHEAD. (Imported). Heads round and 
solid. A good winter variety. Pkt., 10c; oz., 35c; 14 lb., 
$1.25. 
DANISH BAEEHEAD. (Cape Elizabeth grown). 
A valuable round, solid winter variety. Is a 
long keeper and profitable for shipping, keeping 
long after other sorts have gone. This particu¬ 
lar strain is the result of years of selection, and 
is in great demand by those who appreciate the 
best. The slight increase in price over the regu¬ 
lar seed is more than offset by the increased 
vield. Pkt., 10c; oz., 60c; 14 lb., $2.25. 
EARLY JERSEY WAKEFIELD. A standard 
early variety for home use or market. Heads 
somewhat pointed. Pkt., 10c; oz., 35c; 14 lb., 
$1.25. 
EXTRA EARLY COPENHAGEN MARKET. An 
improvement on the Copenhagen Market, being 
equallv good and earlier. Pkt., 10c; oz., 35c; 
14 lb., $1.25. 
GOLDEN ACRE. The earliest round-headed variety. 
Pkt., 10c; oz., 35c; 14 lb., $1.25. 
HENDERSON’S EARLY SUMMER. One of the earliest 
of large cabbages, coming in but a few days later than 
the Wakefield; heads of large size, very solid and com¬ 
pact. Pkt., 10c; oz., 35c; 14 lb., $1.25. 
IMPROVER AMERICAN SAVOY. Very sweet and ten¬ 
der; good-sized, firm heads; very reliable and much

CHIHLI (Chinese Cabbage). Grows similar to Cos let¬ 
tuce. Pkt., 10c; oz., 35c; 14 lb., $1.25. 
One ounce will produce about 2,500 plants. 
Any soil that will grow cabbages will grow 
cauliflower, as the requirements are almost simi¬ 
lar. but as the product is more valuable extra 
manuring and preparation of the soil will be 
repaid. The seeds may be sown in a hotbed in 
March or April, and transplanted to open ground 
about the first of May. 
Cauliflower plants ready about May 15th. 
HENDERSON’S EARLY SNOWBALL. One of 
the best early sorts. Very reliable and grown 
largely for the market. Pkt., 10c; oz., $2.50.
