36 inches apart. 
EARLY VARIETIES 
GOLDEN ACRE: 65 days. For early market.

and introduced by us several years ago. A cabbage

small and can be shipped or may be left, under nor- 
mal conditions, until ripe when it makes a cab- 
bage suitable for Kraut. The head is round and 
weighs from 3 to 6 pounds. Pkt. 15 cts.; oz. 60 
cts.; % lb. $2.10; lb. $6.95.

like many of our other vegetables, has become popu-

by far the best Savoy that we have ever grown. The 
heads are large, flattened globe shape, dark green 
and heavily savoyed. The quality is excellent : 
crisp, tender and sweet. Pkt. 15 cts.; oz. 70 cts.; 
\% |b. $2.25. 
YELLOWS RESISTANT VARIETIES 
These varieties have been bred for yellows resistance 
but do not produce quite as uniform heads as other 
varieties. We advise their use in old cabbage growing 
sections where the disease called “yellows” is known 
to be in the soil. 
MARION MARKET: 80 days. This is the best of 
the early round headed yellows resistant varieties. 
The head resembles Copenhagen Market but is 
larger. The seed we are offering has been field 
tested and is uniform and yellows resistant. Pkt. 15 
cts.; oz. 60 cts.; 14 lb. $1.80; lb. $6.45. 
WISCONSIN ALLSEASON: 95 days. A large cab- 
bage suitable for sauerkraut. Many growers have 
reported very heavy yields from this variety. Wis- 
consin Allseason is a late maturing variety and 
should be transplanted early if maximum yields are 
to be obtained. Pkt. 15 cts.; oz. 55 cts.; 1% lb. 
$1.80; lb. $6.45.
