vegetables, resembling cabbage 
in taste, but more delicate and 
delicious in flavor. The sprouts 
form like miniature cabbages 
clustered around the stalk of the 
plant. Grow where conditions are 
favorable for late cabbage. Re- 
quiring the same method of cul- 
ture, the heads, from 1 to 1% 
ins, in diameter, mature best in 
the Autumn and are ready for 
use as soon as they have had a 
touch of frost.

Our Cabbage seeds are all grown from seed stock of finest quality, care- 
fully inspected while growing. The choicest heads are selected for stor- 
ing over Winter and replanted the following season for seed. Constant 
re-selection from the seed growing stock is required to maintain quality 
No finer or purer strains of cabbage can be found anywhere than our 
American-grown stocks. 
Culture—For early Cabbage sow % in. deep under glass toward the 
end of February and as the plants grow, harden them to the full ex- 
posure of the air, protecting them from frost until the early Spring, 
wpen they should be transplanted into rows 2 to 8 ft. apart and 18 ins. 
in the row. 
For late Cabbage sow in the open ground from the middle to the end 
of Spring and set the plants out in June or July during moist weather, 
giving them a thorough watering at time of removal. Plant 3 ft. apart ’ 
and 2 ft. in the row. Seedlings from late sowings are often destroyed 
by the cabbage fly, which necessitates sowing sufficient seed for surplus 
plants. 
For Fall-grown plants sow the seed in September. In mild climates they 
should be planted out late in Autumn, to remain for heading. In cold 
latitudes they must be protected in cold frames and transplanted in 
the open ground early in Spring. Good heads, of course, can only be 
obtained when the ground has been well worked and highly fertilized. 
In setting out, cover to the first leaf-stems so that the stem is all under 
ground, Cultivate frequently to maintain moisture.

EARLY JERSEY WAKEFIELD 
70 Days from Plants—The finest strain of this most 
popular and extensively used early Cabbage. The 
demand is great in all markets and it is more largely 
grown than all the other first early cabbages com- 
bined. Plants small with short stems permitting 
close setting in the row. Heads of medium size, coni- 
cal in shape, extremely solid with little outside foli- 
age, and excellent in quality. Its exceeding hardiness 
and assurance of always forming a fine solid head, 
makes it the most profitable early variety to grow. 
CHARLESTON OR LARGE WAKEFIELD 
75 Days from Plants—This variety has all the fine. 
qualities of the Early Jersey Wakefield, with heads 
much larger, less pointed and remarkably uniform 
in size and shape. About a week later than Jersey 
Wakefield and very popular with market gardeners 
and shippers in the South, :

65 Days from Plants—A real money cabbage. Its 
excellent quality and uniformity commands a price. 
An extra early Copenhagen Market Type, several 
days earlier, and used by truckers for the earliest — 
markets. The heads are not quite so large as the 
Copenhagen, but more uniformly round. The stems 
are very short. 
GOLDEN ACRE 
Yellows-Resistant 
65 Days from Plants—An extra early yellows-re- 
‘sistant strain. Heads uniformly round. 
GREEN ACRE 
68 Days from Plants—This new variety is an at- 
tractive shade of green, which characteristic is valu- 
able for long distance shipping, the heads always 
presenting a fresh, green appearance when mar- 
keted. Uniform in size and type; ball shaped; short 
stemmed. .
