296 GOLDEN ACRE 
SPECIAL 
Finest Early Roundhead Cabbage 
(60 days.) This special strain of 
Golden Acre is the best early Cabbage 
yet developed. Ripening several days 
earlier than the regular strains, it has 
proved to be an excellent variety for 
home and market growers because of 
its uniformity and fine quality. 
The round heads are small sized, solid yet tender and de- 
licious, and they ripen so evenly that they can all be har- 
vested over a very short period. The compact plants permit 
close planting, making bigger yields of fine heads per acre. 
For a dependable, sure-heading extra early Cabbage, growers 
choose this special strain—without question none better.
