Lightning 
CABBAGE 
LIGHTNING 
63 days. Lightning Cabbage is an extremely early cabbage, very 
valuable for the home garden, for the market gardener, and for 
shipping. The handsome heads are conical or pointed, and are 
usually about 8 inches long, about 6 inches thick near the base, 
and are firm and solid. The heads average 2% pounds in weight, 
which is remarkable when one considers its earliness. ‘ 
Produces fine sized, marketable heads in 75 DAYS FROM SOWING 
OF THE SEED. Thousands of gardeners are now depending on 
Lightning for their first early crop. It is very hardy, always sure 
to head and almost always the earliest in the market. The heads 
are blanched. The plants resist cold and are very hardy, are com- 
pact, have but very few outer leaves, can therefore be planted 
closely together and yield a large crop per acre. 
LIGHTNING is often ripe and solid when other sorts are still in 
leaves. We consider it without an equal in earliness, richness and 
deliciousness of flavor. No vegetable pays better than early cab- 
page. If you are a market gardener, you will want this; if you 
have a city garden, you. cannot get along without it. If you wish 
about the HARLIEST CABBAGE in the world, you must plant
