Certainly Orson is pleased with this crop of Early Seneca. Some 
ten years ago he made the first selections on the cabbage that we 
later named Early Seneca. Each year he has been improving 
this variety through breeding and selection.

from other medium and late strains of Copenhagen

are narrow; very tender and sweet. Pkt. 10 cts.;

MIDSEASON VARIETIES 
MARION MARKET: 80 days. (Yellows resistant.)

been field tested and is uniform and yellows resistant.

few outer leaves; of excellent quality. Pkt. 10 cts.;

yellows infected soil. Pkt. 10 cts.; oz. 40 cts.;

quite uniform. Heads do not split as badly as Early 
Copenhagen. Pkt. 10 cts.; oz. 30 cts.; X lb. 90 
cts.; lb. $3.00. 
Large Late Copenhagen has gained considerable popularity in the 
past few years as a kraut cabbage. It appeared to be one of the 
best in our 1939 cabbage trials. 
IF YOU HAVE YELLOWS 
or live in a yellows infected section, you should 
plant Marion Market or Globe.

“Last season we used some of the Glory cabbage seed. Your 
seed produced about twice as much per acre as the other brands. 
This year my Dad is planning on buying all of his cabbage seed 
from you.”

“My first experience with your seeds compels me to reorder. 
They were the best in every respect I ever used.”
