CABBAGE 
CULTURE—To make an early crop of Cabbage the seed can 
be sowed in hotbeds or in boxes in the house in January, 
February and March, or for later crop can be sowed out- 
side from April to June, but to make the earliest Spring 
Cabbage the seed should be sowed outside about Septem- 
ber 15th, and then transplanted in November, where they 
are to remain. For late crop for winter use sow the late 
varieties from May 15th to August, transplanting when 
large enough. Cabbage should always be grown in good 
rich soil that has been deeply worked and well fertilized 
with stable manure or a fertilizer containing a liberal 
supply of ammonia. Set in rows 3 to 4 feet apart, with 
plants 16 to 24 inches apart in the row, according to 
the variety of cabbage, whether of large, medium or 
small size growth. One ounce of seed will produce about 
1,500 plants. 
D. & B."S EARLY JERSEY WAKEFIELD—This is the most 
popular early Cabbage grown for both market gardeners 
and home use. It cannot be improved upon, and is just 
what is wanted by the most crtical truckers and gard- 
eners. They are uniform in size and make firm conical 
or pointed heads with few outer leaves. Pkt. 5c; oz, 20c; 
1% lb. 60c; Ib. $2.00; postpaid. 
LARGE OR CHARLESTON WAKEFIELD—tThis variety is 
a week or ten days later than our Jersey Wakefield, is ~~ EF 
fully as solid, but with less pointed heads and grows from _ ase 
one-third to one-half larger. It is exceedingly hardy and 
this, together with its considerably larger size has made 
it a most popular sort with gardeners to follow the Jersey 
Wakefield. Pkt. 5c; oz. 20c; 44 lb. 60c; Ib. $2.00; post- 

paid. 
COPENHAGEN MARKET—A very early large flat-head, 
short stem Cabbage, maturing with the Charleston Wake- 
field. On account of its earliness, combined with its 
large size, solidity and compact growth of its leaves, it 
has become a favorite variety. Pkt. 10c; oz. 30c; 14 lb. 
95c; lb. $3.50; postpaid. 
SUCCESSION—A sure heading second early flat-head Cab- 
bage, about two weeks later than the Charleston Wakefield.

what flattened and very solid. Pkt. 5c; oz. 20c; %4 Ib.

ALL SEASONS—A very desirable Cabbage adapted to 
Autumn as well as late Spring and Summer planting. 
The heads are large, nearly round or somewhat flattened, 
very solid and of excellent quality. It is remarkable for 
its ability to stand the hot sun and dry weather and is a 
splendid keeper. Pkt. 5c; oz. 20c; %4 Ib. 60c; Ib. $2.00; 
postpaid. 
DANISH BALLHEAD—One of the very best winter Cab- 
pages, has a short stem, large heads, and is the hardest 
and heaviest cabbage for its size we have ever known. 
It is very hardy, resisting droughts and wet weather far 
better than any other kind. It matures quckly and can 
be planted later than most other varieties. Pkt. 10c; oz. 
25c; % lb. 75c; lb. $2.75; postpaid. 
AUTUMN KING—This is the largest of the Cabbage fami-

are of upright growth, somewhat frilled or scolloped. The 
heads are very solid and keep well. Pkt. 5c; oz. 20c; % 
lb. 60c; Ib. $2.00; postpaid. 
D. & B’S LATE FLAT DUTCH—This has long been a 
favorite cabbage with Southern gardeners for the late 
crop. It is a hardy, vigorous, though rather a slow-growing DRUMHEAD SAVOY 
variety, but a very sure heading sort. Has short stems 
with very large broad spreading leaves. The heads are uni- 
formly large, distinctly flattened on the top, very solid and
