BROCCOLI 
italian Green Sprouting matures nine- 
ty days from date of planting. It re- 
sembles cauliflower and the quality is 
fully equal. Considered superior by 
many. This is the only type we recom- 
mend for San Antonio and vicinity. 
The success of others is doubtful. 
CABBAGE 
Early Jersey Wakefield is the earli- 
est and surest heading of first early 
cabbages for market and home garden. 
Plants are hardy and resist cold and 
other unfavorable conditions. Compact 
and erect or very slightly spreading, 
with few outer leaves which are smooth, 
thick, nearly oval and deep green. 
Heads are medium size, very solid, 
uniformly painted and of excellent 
quality. ' 
Stein’s Early Flat Dutch is an early 
variety very popular in South Texas 
and Gulf Coast sections for marketing 
and shipping. 
Copenhagen Market—A favorite with 
those who grow for early market as 
well as private growers who desire an 
extra-early, round headed cabbage 
which can be depended upon for mak- 
ing large, solid heads at an early sea- 
son. Weigh 10 to 12 pounds and 
mature so uniformly that entire crop 
can be cut at same time. 
Volga Cabbage (True Stock) — Plant 
during August and September. A quick 
grower which makes a deep, very 
heavy head, remarkably solid and 
white. 
CHINESE CABBAGE 
Is white and green, tender, crisp and 
blanches itself perfectly. Grown most- 
ly for Chinese consumption but the 
Occidental who isn’t familiar with this 
tasty cabbage doesn’t know what he’s 
missing. (Follow same cultural direc- 
tions on Lettuce.) 
CARROTS 
Danvers Half-Long—Highly productive 
and adaptable to all classes of soil. 
A broadshouldered, dark orange va- 
riety, the tops are of medium size and 
oy: 
roots of medium length, 6 to 8 inches 
long. Flesh is sweet, crisp and ten- 
der. Market gardeners and truckers 
will have no other. 
Chantenay is a heavy cropper and 
one of the best for market or home 
garden. Tops medium-sized, necks 
small; roots tapering slightly but uni- 
formly stump-rooted and smooth. Color 
deep orange-red; flesh very crisp and 
tender. 
CAULIFLOWER 
Selected Snowball is generally recom- 
mended for San Antonio and vicinity. 
Superior to all others. Compact, with 
few short outside leaves. Heads are 
medium to large size, round, very white 
and curdlike. One ounce will produce 
about 2,000 plants. 
CELERY 
Golden Self-blanching Dwarf are nat- 
urally golden yellow but needs to be 
blanched to make it brittle and fit for 
table use. Best market variety. 
COLLARDS 
Georgia or Southern do not form a 
head but produce a mass of leaves. 
Hardy and continuous growers. Freez- 
ing does not injure but improves its 
quality. 
CORN 
Country Gentleman—lIdeal for San An- 
tonio and vicinity. Makes two to three 
good sized ears to the stalk, on rich 
ground. Grains small, much shrivelled 
but very deep. A high quality sweet 
corn. No garden should be without it. 
Stowell’s Evergreen—Ears are large, 
have fifteen or more rows of deep, 
luscious kernels and remain tender and 
fit for use longer than any other sort. 
Honey June produces an extra large 
ear and is very resistant to diseases 
and worms. 
Charlevoix (Gold Standard)—Standard 
of excellence in sweet corn. Equally 
valuable for home garden, market gar- 
den or canning. Plants tall and usually 
bearing 2 ears 6% to 7 inches long. 
Kernels light golden yellow.
