and are well out of the experimental class. We sell millions of plants each year,

FROST PROOF 
CABBAGE PLANTS Gy 
Frostproof Onion Plants. 
Frostproof Cabbage Plants are true to their name. They 
will stand frost and even freezing temperatures as low as 
20 degrees above zero. Because of their great resistance 
to bad weather they can be planted early, just as soon 
as the ground can be worked. Normally you will gain 
three weeks by using frostproof plants. These plants are 
grown in Texas during the winter months and are shipped 
direct from our growing station at the proper time for 
planting. Because of the difficult conditions under which 
they grow, the plants have a somewhat wilted and stunted 
appearance, but regardless of their appearance when 
planted they make a steady growth, 
If you do not state on your order when you want the 
plants sent, we will use our own judgment. We would, 
however, prefer that you give us a shipping date. No
