Green cabbage worms and aphids can do a 
lot of damage to cabbage but fortunately the 
worms are easily killed by DDT. Parathion 
dust will give excellent control of aphids and 
satisfactory control of cabbage worms. 
Most growers now use liberal amounts of 
fertilizer; plants must be set close in the row 
if size of head is to be kept down to market 
demands. 
EARLY CABBAGE VARIETIES 
641 SPECIAL GOLDEN ACRE: 63 days. A 
special selected early strain of Golden Acre 
that is bred to meet the demands of the 
most particular market garden trade. Heads

maturity. See prices below.

642 ROBSON EARLY COPENHAGEN MAR- 
KET: 68 days. Our strain produces small, 
compact, short stemmed plants. Heads 
round, firm, 3 to 5 lbs. and of excellent 
quality. Matures about 5 or 6 days later 
than Golden Acre. See prices below. 
640 GREEN ACRE: 75 days. An especially 
good market strain in which plant and head 
are deeper, more attractive shade of green 
than Copenhagen Market. Valuable for 
shipping because of its fresh appearance 
when marketed. See prices below. 
639 ROUND DUTCH: 71 days. A very good 
home and market strain that we have liked 
very much because of its dark green heads 
and foliage. Plants small and compact; 
stem short. Heads almost _ ball-shaped; 
commonly 7—8 inches in diameter, 6 inches 
deep and weigh 414-5 pounds; firm and of 
high quality. If allowed to over-mature be- 
Quality seed merits a quality package. Robson quality cabbage seed is packaged in tin; sealed to 
protect against loss of germination and damage from breakage. 
MIDSEASON CABBAGE VARIETIES 
643 ROBSON EARLY SENECA: 80 days. 644 LARGE LATE COPENHAGEN: 90 days. 
Plant large, spreading, with short stem, Heads round, solid, 
Forms solid 4 to 6 lb. round heads suitable 
for fresh market or if left will continue to 
grow with a minimum of splitting to 8 to 10 
lb. heads suitable for kraut. Ribs are nar- 
row and flesh is tender and sweet. See prices 
below. 
645 GLORY OF ENKHUIZEN: 85 days. 
Plant a little smaller and earlier than Large 
Late Copenhagen. Head round, very solid, 
weighs 8 to 10 Ibs. The standard “kraut” 
cabbage in areas where yellows is not a 
factor. See prices below. 
Plant large, spreading. 
weighing 10 to 12 lbs. when mature. Large 
Late Copenhagen is primarily a “kraut” 
variety, being too large for the fresh mar- 
ket. Requires fairly long season to mature. 
See prices below. 
660 BONANZA: 71 days. A new midseason 
market variety that forms a hard market- 
able head early but, because it has a very 
small core, continues to grow a 4 lb. head 
without splitting. Quality fair—a little 
tough. Bonanza will hold in field at least 3 
weeks without splitting. See prices below.

kinds to grow. 
654 YELLOWS RESISTANT GOLDEN 
ACRE: 65 days. Far superior to earlier 
resistant strains of Golden Acre, our new

Golden Acre and practically as uniform. 
Heads are round, firm, and good market 
size. See prices below. 
657 WISCONSIN COPENHAGEN: 70 days. 
A new yellows resistant Copenhagen that is 
early, very uniform, short-stemmed with 
dark green foliage. It produces excellent 4 
to 6 lb. market heads with good leaf overlap. 
Growers who used Wisconsin Copenhagen 
last year were highly pleased with it. See 
prices below. 
All of our cabbage seed is Hot Water 
Treated. Checks seed borne “black leg” 
and “black rot”.

uniform I ever grew — every head looked alike.”

Wisconsin Copenhagen Cabbage. Set 12” apart in
