Chinese Cabbage 
(A) Chihli 
Quite a distinct early variety of great merit 
which we think superior to all other types. 
Heads are long, almost cylindrical, blanched 
pure white, very solid and of superior quality. 
The upright growth and the shape of the heads 
permit closer planting than of other kinds. 
Although of recent introduction it is already very 
popular on most markets. It is important to 
sow at the right time in July and August as 
Spring sowing will bolt to seed. Pkt., .15; 
o/., .25.

heads are larger and mature about a week to ten days later. It is highly desirable for mar¬ 
ket and is used extensively for sauerkraut. Pkt., .10; oz., .30; lb., .1)0; lb., $3.00. 
Cabbage — Late

A strain of Danish Ballliead developed by Prof. C. E. Myers at Penn State College. The 
selection was made for yield and uniformity. We consider it one of the best strains on the 
market. Heads are globe, slightly flattened on the top. They are very solid, weighing 8 
to 9 lbs., and are excellent keepers. Plant is vigorous and a good grower. This variety 
has yielded the heaviest tonnage per acre of any Ballhead type. Pkt., .10; oz., .30; lb.,
