CABBAGE 
CuLtrurE.—Sow seed in hotbed and transplant. Or sow 
in the open ground, as early as the ground can be worked. 
They should be sown in drills 4 to 6 inches apart. When 
plants are 6 inches high transplant into richly manured 
ground, the early kinds 2 feet apart, the later kinds, for 
winter use, 3 feet apart. The ground should be deeply 
loosened, worked thoroughly to grow large heads. 
One ounce of seed will sow 40 square feet of ground 
and will produce from 2000 to 3000 plants. 
EXTRA-EARLY VARIETIES 
Copenhagen Market. 70 days. This is an early, 
round, solid head with a small core. It has an ex- 
ceptionally fine flavor and is much used by both 
home and market gardeners. An excellent short- 
season type, desirable also for early kraut. 
Copenhagen Market (Market Garden Strain). 63 days. 
One of the earliest, large, round-headed Cabbages. 
We recommend it for planting m the South. It is 
very compact, with not many outside leaves, and the 
round heads are borne on short stems. Somewhat 
earlier than our regular Copenhagen Market. Heads 
average around 8 pounds. 
Early Dwarf Flat Dutch. 70 days. Early market and 
shipping variety. Heads nearly round, about 8 by 
6 inches, 4 to 5 pounds, with short stems, solid and 
of good quality. 
Early Jersey Wakefield. 65 days. The most popular 
early Cabbage on the market today. It heads up 
remarkably hard and solid, with but few outside 
leaves, which are unusually thick and heavy, enabling 
it to stand cold weather without injury when carried 
through the winter either m the open ground or in 
coldframes. 
Early Round Dutch. 75 days. Slightly flattened at 
base. The heads are firm, small and compact, slow 
to produce seeders and will withstand cold weather 
better than other round-headed varieties. 
Golden Acre. 65 days. This is the earliest variety of 
the round-head type. It is similar to the well-known 
Copenhagen Market except that it is much earlier 
and both stalk and head are smaller. 
medium size, round, smooth and solid. 
Heads are of 
Chinese or 
Celery Cabbage, 
Chihili 
SECOND-EARLY VARIETIES 
Charleston Wakefield. 73 days. Excellent for home, 
trucking, and shippmg. Large heart-shaped heads, 
a half Jarger than Early Jersey and a week Iater. 
Glory of Enkhuizen. 83 days. A good midseason 
variety. The heads are medium large, round and 
solid with few outer Jeaves. It is used for both kraut 
and winter storage. A splendid shipping variety. 
LATE CABBAGE 
Danish Roundhead Short-Stem. 105 days. This 
variety has been used for many years by large 
market growers and is considered a grand header. 
Heads are round, solid, and attractive for market. 
It is equally good for fall and winter use. 
Drumhead Savoy. 90 days. Standard Savoy type for 
general use and an excellent keeper. Heads nearly 
round, solid, with large, heavily crimped leaves of 
dark bluish green and of good quality. 
Large Late Flat Dutch. 100 days. More extensively 
grown for Jate or main winter crop than any other. 
Heads very large, solid and broad, with flat tops of 
fine flavor and quality; very short stems and sure to 
head. With good cultivation 95 per cent will make 
heads for market. 
Penn State Ballhead. 105 days. Developed by Pro- 
fessor C. E. Myers of Pennsylvania State College. 
A selected strain of Danish Ballhead. Heads are 
hard and attractive. A Jarge-yielding winter va- 
riety; one of the best. 
Red Dutch (Red Rock). 100 days. Large, round, solid 
heads. Leaves purple or red; head medium size, with 
numerous spreading leaves. Used for pickling. 
YELLOWS-RESISTANT CABBAGE

Market but later in maturity and more blue-green 
foliage. Heads are larger and a heavier yielder, 
round and very compact. 
Resistant Golden Acre. 65 days. The earliest of the 
round-headed, yellows-resistant varieties. Heads 
small, solid, and of a fine quality. 
Wisconsin All-Seasons. 90 days. A _ late-maturing 
drumhead variety. This strain is exceptionally hardy 
and withstands drought, hot weather and insect in- 
festation. 
Wisconsin Hollander No. 8. 105 days. Selected from 
Danish Ballhead. The first variety of yellows- 
resistant Cabbage seed released from the University 
of Wisconsin and now greatly improved as to type, 
quality, and resistance since the first introduction. 
Heads slightly flattened across top with blue-green 
foliage. Heavy yielder, ideal for winter storage.

the Chinese of the Pacific Coast. It belongs to the 
Cabbage family and from seed sown in the open ground, 
quickly produces very attractive heads somewhat re- 
sembling Cos lettuce.
