Cabbage 
Finest Holland-Grown Seed. 
After careful investigation and trials, we have found 
that Holland Grown Cabbage Seed not only is free 
from all diseases of the root, but produces better heads, 
a heavier crop and more uniform fields than we former' 
ly had with our home grown seed. 
Prices on all Cabbage (except Premier Round, Sauer¬ 
kraut King, and Ideal Red). U oz., 5c; oz., 20c; U lb., 
50c; 1 lb., #1.75. 
Copenhagen Market. Here is an early, round-headed Cab¬ 
bage equaling Jersey Wakefield for earliness, light green 
leaves and remarkably solid head that will mature about the 
same time. This is just what market gardeners are after. 
Danish Ballhead. The heads are of medium size to large, 
fine white color, thick meated and can be kept all winter. 
One of the best market sorts. 
Early Flat Dutch. One of the most desirable second early 
varieties, maturing a good flat head. 
Early Jersey Wakefield. From selected stock. This is a 
market favorite as well as a fine early Cabbage for summer 
use. Grows quickly and cooks tender. 
Glory of Enkhuizen. Has become a great favorite very 
quickly; early round-headed ; dark green heads of medium 
size but of best quality. 
Golden Acre Cabbage. A small but very fine variety, as 
early as Jersey Wakefield but with round, solid heads. The 
few outer leaves are small, permitting close planting and 
making the type a very suitable one, both for growth under 
glass and for the suburban gardener. Golden Acre produces 
uniform, tightly folded and well-blanched heads of the best 
mild table quality. 
Improved American Savoy. The Savoy Cabbages deserve 
to be better known in America. They are large and of ex¬ 
cellent flavor. 
Lightning Express. The earliest Cabbage grown. Will ma¬ 
ture 10 days sooner, we believe, than any other Cabbage. 
Better try this. 
Pennsylvania State Ballhead. A highly developed and im¬ 
proved strain of Ballhead, representing many years of care¬ 
ful breeding by the Pennsylvania State College. It produces 
more tons per acre and is less subject to disease than the 
original strain of Ballhead. The much larger crops grown 
from this variety will justify our customers in paying the 
higher price asked for it. 
Preminm Flat Dutch. Highly valued everywhere Cabbage 
is grown. 
Premier Bound. Earliest of all known Cabbages. Golden 
Acre type but much earlier. Solid heads and a coming com¬ 
mercial early sort. *4 oz., 10c; 1 oz., 35c; *4 lb., $1.25. 
Sauerkraut King. Specially recommended in the 1937 trial 
for All-America Selections. A very distinct type to be classed 
between second early and late. Forms extremely large and 
heavy heads of ball shape, of exceptionally uniform growing 
habit. Interior fine grained and extra solid, consequently 
very desirable for sauerkraut. Compact growth with few 
outer leaves, thus permitting close planting. % oz., 10c; 
1 oz., 35c; ^4 lb., $1.00. 
The Ideal Bed. Earliest of all. Specially recommended in 
the 1936 trials for All-America selections. Will have a very 
definite place as most uniform in size, type and a very early 
round, solid heading r^d. Very few outer leaves and short 
stems. From single line selection. Vi ° z *> 10c; 1 oz., 35c; 
% lb., $1.00. 
Volga or Stonehead. Larger than Danish Ballhead, matures 
more perfect Cabbage on an acre of the poorest ground we 
ever saw, keeps longest in winter. We know you will like 
this Cabbage. 
Chinese Cabbage 
Chihili. An early and sure-heading variety, growing 18 to 
20 inches tall and about 3 x f>, to 4 inches, thick. The firm 
well-blanched heads taper near the top. Better than head 
lettuce for salads. Delicious when cooked like cabbage.

blunt end and very small tap root. Flesh fine grained, with 
very little core, the skin orange, and very smooth; one of 
the best table sorts. 
Improved White Belgian. The universal stock Carrot of 
Belgium. Dairymen prize it for its great amount of sacchar¬ 
ine ; immensely productive. No vegetable grown will pro¬ 
duce as much feed or is so much relished by all kinds of 
stock. Good keeper. 
Oxheart. Forms a thick root 3 to 4 inches in diameter, and 
produces large crops. Some growers report 800 bushels per 
acre. 
New Early Coreless. Rich Solid Flesh of Finest Quality— 
The Roots are Very Uniform In Shape, Size and Color. An 
early variety of superior flavor and without any core, highly 
recommended for market and home use as it is the best 
carrot for general crop; it is of a rich orange color, a very 
heavy yielder and splendid keeper. The roots grow about 
8 inches long, taper uniformly to a blunt point. The flesh 
is deep orange-red, tender and of good quality. It is a first 
class Carrot for all kinds of soil, valuable for both table 
use and stock. Grown extensively by market gardeners for 
bunching and makes a handsome appearance on the market. 
We have an extra fine strain of this variety.
