WISCONSIN YELLOW RESISTANT

F/rst Gene/zat/om Seed 
The photograph above is of a field of cabbage at 
Racine, Wisconsin. It shows a test row of cab¬ 
bage from good commercial seed in the center of a 
field of Yellows Resistant cabbage. A very few 
plants only out of hundreds set out, survived in 
this row. No clearer demonstration of the value of 
resistant seeds in districts affected by yellows 
could be given. 
In growing good cabbage, it is necessary first to 
obtain the best seed produced. We have that kind. 
Our American varieties are of the best American 
strains, our Yellows Resistant Seed is First Genera¬ 
tion Wisconsin grown, and our Danish varieties 
are produced in Denmark where those varieties reach 
l>erfection. Cabbage requires deep mellow soil. 
One packet will produce 400 plants, Yi lb. plants 
enough for an acre. 
CULTURE: For early use sow the seed in hot¬ 
beds during February and March and transplant in 
the open ground as soon as danger of freezing is 
over, in rows 2 feet apart and 18 inches apart in 
the row. For second early sow in April and trans¬ 
plant in May and for the late varieties sow about 
May 10th and transplant from the middle of June 
to the first of July. Use Slug Shot for cabbage 
worms and Evergreen for lice. Maggot Control. 
See page 49. The figure after the name gives the 
time required to form mature heads after setting 
plants. 
SAGE HI CAPS will hasten growth and protect 
plants from frost and insects. See page 53.

8 . (110 days.) The same as No. 85 described on 
the next page, except that it is “Yellows Resistant.” 
Wisconsin No. 8 is one of the most satisfactory 
strains of cabbage to grow for winter use and for 
a shipper. It will keep good and it has a heavy, 
solid head. The heads are almost perfectly round, 
fine grained and with few outside leaves. We 
recommend this strain. Pkt., 10c; x / 2 oz., 20c; oz.

Wisconsin Ballhead Cabbage. 
81. WISCONSIN BALLHEAD. (Yel¬ 
lows Resistant.) (105 days.) This new strain of 
Yellows Resistant Cabbage was developed in 
answer to a demand for a late storage variety 
that would mature earlier and not as coarse as 
Wis. Hollander No. 8. After years of careful 
breeding this new strain was originated and in 
trials it has proven 100% resistant to Yellows 
which is not true of No. 8. It is also more 
uniform and in fact more uniform than any 
of its type ever seen and is somewhat earlier 
than the No. 8. It was not bred from Wis. No. 
8 but from an entirely new strain of cabbage. 
For market gardening, shipping and storage pur¬ 
poses it is second to none. Pkt., 10c; 14 oz.,
