CABBAGE 
A packet will produce about 250 plants. One ounce of seed will produce 1500 to 2000 plants sown in open ground, or 3000 if sown in frames; 4 Ib. of seed is 
needed to produce plants for an acre. 
To get very early cabbage in the Northern states, sow the seed in hot- 
beds in February or March, or about six weeks before the ground outside 
is ready. For medium early crops, sow the seed of early varieties outdoors 
as early as possible and transplant when large enough. On rich, well- 
cultivated land, you will have cabbage in August. For late crop, sow in 
the Northern States about May 20 and set plants out July 1. Early 
varieties may be sown as late as June 10, and will mature a good crop. 
Control of Insects on Cabbage 
3% DDT Dust is highly effective against flea beetles, cabbage worms 
and loopers, and is especially recommended for late or storage cabbage. 
On earlier crops, the use of DDT should be discontinued 30 days before 
the heads will be cut. Rotenone dust and EndoPest are also very 
good for all cabbage insects and may safely be used any time. See page 83.

Golden Acre Special 
Showing its remarkable uniformity and handsome shape. 
276 LARGE LATE COPENHAGEN. Fine Kraut Cabbage. This 
remarkable large strain of Copenhagen is an outstanding cabbage to 
grow for market and kraut. The heads become round and hard about 
two weeks later than the early Copenhagen, but instead of splitting or 
getting soft, they continue to grow, reaching 10 to 12 inches in diameter. 
Even at this size they are firm and solid. They are ideal for kraut 
because of the heavy tonnage, and the superior quality makes them 
popular for market and home use.

This is a fine early variety of the highest quality and especially good

early and are of excellent quality—tender, crisp and delicious.

YELLOWS RESISTANT CABBAGE 

Marion Market—The best midseason cabbage and it’s yellows resistant. 
264 ENKHUIZEN GLORY, Yellows Resistant (Globe). This is an 
excellent large kraut type and should replace Enkhuizen Glory on all 
land that is infected with yellows. Our stock is very even, producing 
solid uniform heads of good size, ripening a little later than Enkhuizen 
Glory. Widely used for both market and kraut. 
Pkt. 15e; 1% Oz. 40c; Oz. 65c; 14 Lb. $1.75; % Lb. $2.70; 1 Lb. $5.00. 
The spread of yellows has greatly increased in recent years, and if 
your land has become infected, resistant varieties are the only kinds to 
grow. They have been much improved in type and trueness and will 
produce fine crops. We offer six resistant varieties, the four listed below, 
and for late cabbage, Wisconsin Hollander and Bugner on page 12. 
272 GOLDEN ACRE, YELLOWS RESISTANT. By far the best strain 
of early cabbage to grow on yellows-infected soil. It is almost as early 
as Golden Acre Special, ripens very evenly and the heads are of fine 
type, round firm and attractive. The seed we offer this year is an 
excellent strain, very uniform in type and dependable in performance. 
There is no reason for taking chances if you have any trace of yellows 
on your land—plant Golden Acre, Yellows Resistant. 
Pkt. 15c; 4% Oz. 40c; Oz. 70c; 14 Lb. $1.95; 4% Lb. $3.30; 1 Lh. $6.00. 
281 MARION MARKET. eller Resistant Copenhagen 
ype. Now the leading midseason 
variety and one of the most widely grown for market and kraut and 
also for home use. The heads are of good size, larger than Copenhagen 
Market and a few days later, and they grow firm and solid with an 
attractive round shape and very fine quality. 
We have a very uniform and true stock of this variety which will 
produce fine heads on land so diseased with yellows that other cabbage 
fails entirely. It is also such a good strain that it is used by many 
growers who have no yellows infection. We highly recommend this 
excellent cabbage to all growers. 
Pkt. 10c; 144 Oz. 30c; Oz. 55c; 14 Lb. $1.60: 1% Lb. $2.65; 1 Lh. $5.00. 
242 ALL SEASONS. Yellows Resistant. Produces very large flattened 
heads and gives enormous yields. It is a very hardy type of domestic 
cabbage which stands a long time, and it is especially valuable for kraut 
growers with yellows infected soil, as it is highly resistant. 
Pkt. 10c: 4 Oz. 30c; Oz. 55c; 144 Lb. $1.40; 14 Lb. $2.35; Lb. $4.50.
