a STARRED VARIETIES ARE BEST FOR LOCAL CONDITIONS 

*x*EARLY JERSEY WAKEFIELD. This is 
the earliest and best cabbage not only for 
market gardeners but for the family gar- 
den. Its great resistance both to frost and 
other unfavorable conditions makes it the 
surest header of all the early cabbages. 
The heads are very solid, uniform, me- 
dium sized and of excellent quality. 
EARLY DWARF FLAT DUTCH. The 
plants of this valuable second early sort 
are short stemmed, compact and upright 
with comparatively few and short leaves. 
Outer leaves slightly waved and serrated 
at edges. Heads large for size of plant, 
nearly round or somewhat flattened, close 
firm and very solid. Matures a little 
earlier than Early Summer. First quality « 
seed. 
ALL SEASONS OR SUCCESSION. A fine 
new cabbage a few days later but much 
larger than the Harly Summer; sure head- 
ing and finest quality. Good to plant early 
or late. Pkt. 10c; oz. 40c. 
x*COPENHAGEN MARKET. This is the 
earliest of the round headed type of cab- 
bage yet introduced. Heads are quite 
large, very fine quality. Although this is 
not quit so hardy as early Jersey Wake- 
field, it will be found excellent both for 
home garden and the market. Pkt. 10c; 
oz. 40c. 
Late Cabbage 
PRICES—On all Cabbage 
Pkt. 10c; oz. 40c; '4 Ib. $1.20; 1 Ib. $3.60 
*DANISH BALL HEAD. A _ medium- 
sized, very solid head. It is a longer keeper 
and a good one to ship. The small heads 
weigh more than large heads of other 
kinds. Should be planted on good soil, 
with good cultivation to secure good-sized 
heads. On poor soil it makes too long a 
stem. 
PREMIUM LATE DUTCH. Best for win- 
ter use; round or slightly flattened heads; 
stands freezing well. A good keeper and 
of excellent quality. 
*GLORY OF ENKHUIZEN. Second early 
variety, sure heading and excellent qual- 
ity. Plants of vigorous growth. Heads 
globular or nearly round, very solid and 
of large size. :

the Savoy cabbages, and.a general favor-

of aunt other late cabbage, stands freezing 
well.

red cabbage; splendid winter keeper. 
Heads round to slightly flattened globe- 
shape; commonly 7 inches in diameter and 
weigh about 7 lbs.; very hard; deep pur- 
plish red. 
Chinese Cabbage 
CHIHLI. A quaint, distinct early variety 
of great merit which we think superior to 
all other types. Heads are long, almost 
eylindrical, bleached pure white, very 
solid and of superior quality. The upright

shape of the heads

the finest of all table carrots, about six 
inches long and slightly over one inch in 
diameter when fully matured. It is stump 
rooted and very uniform in size the full

almost entirely coreless, which makes it 
unsurpassed for canning purposes.

easier to pull than the Long Orange and 
one of the best yielders. The quality is 
excellent. Very fine for table or stock. 
LONG ORANGE. This is an old and well 
Known variety in use for many years as a 
stock carrot. However, owing to its bright 
color and shape many market gardeners 
are finding a ready sale for it in the 
stores and markets. 
*RED CORED CHANTENAY. A new va- 
riety of carrot with tops shorter and finer 
cut than Chantenay. The roots are about 
six inches long and two inches in diam- 
eter. The core is quite red and in cooking 
retains its color in a remarkable extent. 
It has all the good qualities of both the 
Chantenay and the Nantes, and about 10% 
greater sugar content than either variety. 
A fine market sort. 
OXHEART or GUERANDE. Short and 
thick intermediate, between the half- 
long and the Early Horn varieties; three 
or four inches in diameter at the neck. Of

quality and yield.

ilar to the White Belgian in every way

able white curd. Gather the tops of the 
leaves together loosely as soon as the 
heads begin to form.
