Ballhead Cabbage 
This very excellent late Cabbage, developed 
by Dr. C. E. Myers, Professor of Plant Breed¬ 
ing at our Pennsylvania State College, pro¬ 
duces the nearest to 100 per cent marketable 
heads of any late Cabbage we know. Each 
year, under Dr. Myers’ own personal super¬ 
vision, is produced the stock seed from which 
our seed is then produced. 
Only those with a knowledge of the inten¬ 
sive, expert breeding work carried on by Dr. 
Myers for many years past, as well as at this 
present time, can appreciate the true value of 
this thoroughbred strain of late Ballhead 
Cabbage. Is it any wonder then that it has 
yielded as much as 23.8 tons per acre, as 
compared with the average of 10 tons per 
acre of other varieties? Penn State Ballhead 
will mean a big crop of quality Cabbage to 
everyone who grows it. Order Early. For a 
number of years we have sold out of Penn 
State Ballhead and many customers were 
disappointed. This year we have a good crop 
of seed, but of course the demand increases every year, 
so to be sure that you get seed we urge you to order early.
