One ounce for 2000 plants; lb. to Ylb. for an acre 
For fall crops many growers drill the seed directly 
in the field, later thinning out to the desired spacing 
between plants in the row. This avoids 
the hazard of transplanting losses and in- 
sures continued growth during the usual 
heat and drought of late summer. 
EARLY VARIETIES 
Green Acre. The uniform heads of 
this fine variety are like Golden 
Acre but are larger, greener, and 
very few days later. The uniform, 
compact plants are quite short- 
stemmed and have but few outer 
leaves. The mtense green leaves 
make the heads appear fresh. 
Golden Acre, Super Strain. A very superior Danish-grown strain which we main- 
tain at its high degree of uniformity by special selection. It resembles the old 
Copenhagen Market but the medium-sized, firm heads, 4 to 5 pounds each, 
mature one week earlier than our Copenhagen Market. The dwarf, compact 
plants, with rather small frame, can be set closely to give a very heavy yield. 
Yellows-Resistant Golden Acre. This is one of the earliest round-headed partly 
yellows-resistant varieties and 1s more uniformly true to type than most. By 
selection, we have increased its earliness so that now it matures in 67 days. 
Yellows-Resistant Golden Acre XXX. An improvement over the above with earlier, 
more uniform, firm round heads on short-stemmed, compact, yellows-resistant 
plants. This strain is well worth the higher cost of the seed. 
Yellows-Resistant Racine Market. Of Golden Acre size but maturmg later in about 
70 days. The heads are round, compact and solid, dependably uniform and of 
fresh gray-green color. Similar mn leaf and head to Copenhagen Market. Ex- 
cellent for early market and shipping. Stands long without splitting. 
Copenhagen Market. The round, solid heads, larger than Golden Acre, are of fine quality and 
very uniform. The light green leaves fold tightly over one another. The sturdy plants are 
short-stemmed, with the heads just above the ground. 
Yellows-Resistant Wisconsin Copenhagen Market. The plants of this new strain are 10 to 
12 inches tall with blue-green foliage. In 62 days from setting out they mature 414-pound, 
round, very compact heads, each just like the next. They are fine for market, shipping or 
early Kraut. Withstands adverse conditions better than other early resistant varieties. 
SECOND-EARLY VARIETIES 
Bonanza. Outstanding for market and shipping. The almost round, short-cored, 
very uniform green heads are very hard when as small as a baseball and may be 
cut at any size desired. Mature in 75 days and stand long without cracking. 
Yellows-Resistant Glory of Enkhuizen (Globe). The short-stemmed plants have 
quite big, rather spreading, curved and frilled outer leaves: The dark green heads 
are round with very short core, very hard and solid, and large for so early a va- 
riety, maturing in about 80 days. Seldom attacked by cabbage worms. 
Yellows-Resistant Globe XXX. More compact and uniform than the above and 
just as yellows-resistant. An ideal variety for shipping, market and for Kraut. 
Yellows-Resistant Marion Market. Broadly round, blue-green, 5-pound hard heads but the 
plant is larger than Y. R. Copenhagen Market, maturing in about 74 days.
