Kraut (Ger.) 
CABBAGE 
Cavolo capucci (It.) 
One ounce of seed will produce 1500 to 2000 plants sown in open ground, or 3000 if sown in 
frames; a packet about 250 plants. 5 to 6 ounces of seed will produce plants for an acre. 
Methods of Culture. To get very early cabbage in the Northern states, 
sow the seed in hot-beds in February or March, or about six weeks before 
the ground outside is ready to receive the plants. For the home garden it is 
often more satisfactory to buy a few dozen plants for early cabbage. (See 
page 82.) For medium early crops, the seed of early kinds likeJJopenhagen 
Market or Golden Acre may be sown in the open ground as early as possible 
and the plants transplanted as soon as large enough. They will give cabbage 
ready for use in August if the land is rich and well cultivated. For the late 
crop the seed should be sown in the Northern states about May 20, and the 
plants set out July 1. Early varieties may be sown as late as June 10, and 
will mature a good crop.

This is a most important step in the control of Black Leg. 
Hot water treatment is more work and expense to us but added 
crop insurance for you! 
With the increase in the number of farms having “yellows sick” soil, 
yellows resistant varieties should be planted more. In many sections 
they are the only varieties which will succeed. Even if the yellows in¬ 
fection is slight, and ordinary kinds can be grown, the yellows resist¬ 
ant varieties usually do better and produce larger crops. 
The yellows resistant varieties listed below are the best to be had. 
GOLDEN ACRE Yellows Resistant. True to type and earliness and 
in addition will produce good crops on “yellows” sick soil where regular 
Golden Acre cannot do well. 
Pkt. 10c; Oz. 60c; 34 Lb. $1.65; Lb. $5.00. 
COPENHAGEN MARKET. Yellows Resistant. Special Strain. 
This variety will grow and mature good early round heads on land so 
diseased with “yellows” that other cabbage fails entirely. The heads are 
very uniform; of true Copenhagen Market type and mature only a little 
later. 
This is the most uniform stock resistant cabbage we have yet seen. 
Pkt. 10c; Oz. 55c; % Lb. $1.35; Lb. $4.00. 
Early and Medium Early Varieties 
GOLDEN ACRE. The Earliest Cabbage. Not only the earliest 
_- cabbage we know but so uniform that practi¬ 
cally every plant makes a perfect head. It often heads a week earlier than 
Early Jersey Wakefield and two weeks earlier than Copenhagen Market. 
The heads are of fine quality, round as a ball, medium size (4-5 lbs.) 
and very firm. The plants are of neat compact growth so that they may be 
set close together. The most profitable early market variety and home 
gardeners are always proud of their rows of Golden Acre. 
This is the same strain of Golden Acre which we have sold for years 
and is superior in uniformity of type and earliness to many stocks that 
are sold at a much higher price. 
Pkt. 10c; Oz. 45c; M Lb. $1.25; Lb. $3.50. 
GOLDEN ACRE SPECIAL. This specially selected strain of the above is 
the earliest and most uniform stock of cabbage we know. We recommend 
it to growers who want only the best. 
Pkt. 15c; Oz. 70c; 34 Lb. $2.00; Lb. $6.50. 
MARION MARKET. Yellows Resistant Copenhagen Type. The 
heads resemble Copenhagen Market and will grow and mature good 
round heads on “yellows” diseased land. This is a uniform and true 
stock of this variety. A little later than Copenhagen Market. 
Pkt. 10c; Oz. 55c; J4 Lb. $1.35; Lb. $4.00. 
ALL SEASONS Yellows Resistant. Recommended for yellows sick 
soil where the flatter type of domestic cabbage is wanted for kraut, etc. 
A very uniform stock producing large crops and very highly resistant. 
Pk. 10c; Oz. 55c; J4 Lb. $1.35; Lb. $4.00. 
WISCONSIN HOLLANDER. Yellows Resistant. Use this strain to 
grow Danish cabbage if your land is diseased with “Yellows.” Under nor¬ 
mal conditions it produces good crops on land where other Danish cab¬ 
bage fails entirely. The heads are uniform, as round as a ball and very 
deep green with a purple or bluish tint on the edges. The plants are of 
strong, healthy growth with short stems. 
Pkt. 10c; Oz. 55c; 34 Lb. $1.35; Lb. $4.00. 
BUGNER Yellows Resistant. This is a late cabbage of the Danish type 
which is so popular in many sections. This will produce large crops on 
yellows sick land. One of the heaviest yielding kinds we know. The 
heads are large, some slightly flattened, very solid and heavy. Keeps 
well in storage. 
Pkt. 10c; Oz. 55c; 34 Lb. $1.35; Lb. $4.00. 
Golden 
Acre 
Cabbage 
Every head is 
just alike. 
ACRE (New.) The most remarkable thing about this vari- 
-- ety is the green color of the leaves which gives them 
a fresh bright appearance at all times. They are of fine quality, and 
attractive for salad. 
The heads resemble the famous Golden Acre, but are larger, greener 
and mature a few days later. They are very solid and stand better than 
most early kinds without splitting. The plants are very compact so they 
can be planted close together. We have never seen a more uniform stock. 
This is an extraordinarily fine variety for the home garden as well as 
for commercial planting. 
Pkt. 10c; Oz. 60c; 34 Lb. $1.65; Lb. $5.00. 
EARLY JERSEY WAKEFIELD. Early. Pointed Heads. The standard 
early cabbage with pointed heads, very compact and of excellent quality. 
Pkt. 10c; Oz. 40c; 34 Lb. $1.10; Lb. $3.00. 
COPENHAGEN MARKET. True Large Heading Strain. An old favor¬ 
ite for home, market and kraut, wherever early cabbage is grown. 
This popular strain has heads which are larger than Golden Acre and 
mature about 10 days later. They are firm, round and grow on compact 
plants, practically every plant making a good head. A profitable cabbage 
for market and excellent for the home garden. 
Copenhagen Market is largely grown for kraut and is excellent for this 
purpose, the heads being of fine quality, tender and crisp. 
Pkt. 10c; Oz. 40c; 34 Lb. $1.10; Lb. $3.00. 
LARGE LATE COPENHAGEN. £; ne Krau * cabbie. 
- 1 his remarkable large 
strain of Copenhagen Market is an outstanding cabbage to grow for 
market and kraut. 
It becomes round and hard almost as early as regular Copenhagen 
Market and then continues to grow without splitting or getting soft, 
producing fine large solid heads ten to twelve inches in diameter that can 
be cut in the fall for kraut. Every plant produces a large solid head and 
will stand without splitting, longer than any other kind. 
If you are looking for heavy tonnage combined with fine hard heads of 
superior quality, grow some Large Late Copenhagen. 
Pkt. 10c: Oz. 35c; 34 Lb. $1.00; Lb. $2.75. 
ENKHUIZEN GLORY. One of the best and most popular varieties for 
medium early or main crop and kraut. The heads are large, weighing 8 to 
10 pounds, and mature only a week later than Copenhagen Market. This 
stock produces large uniform heads and is well liked by many of our cus¬ 
tomers who use it year after year. 
Pkt. 10c; Oz. 30c; M Lb. 85c; Lb. $2.25.
