EARLY BLE1CHFIELD GIANT.—Large, solid heading, short- stemmed, second early sort. Dark- green. Solid. It is sure to please. Pkt, 10c.; oz..25e.; ^ab.,7oe.; lb., 82.50. MAVLB'S EARLY FLAT DUTCH.-An old variety, hut one that is still wonderfully popular wher- ever grown, unquestionably a good second early, of excellent quality, with large, sound and solid beads. Heads are of a very uniform shape and are flattened on top. Recom- mended for the South, as it resists heat better than manv other varieties. Pkt., 10c; oz., 25c; Vlb., 75c; lb., 82.25. EARLYSUMME R.—This variety matures ten days to two weeks after Wakefield but as the heads are almost double tbe size, it may he ranked as one of the best large earlles. One point in favor of this Cabbage is that on account of its short outer leaves, it can be planted as close as the Wakefield, about 12 000 plants to the acre. Heads are solid, round and rather flat. I offer strictly first- choice Long Island grown' seed. Pkt., 10c; oz.. 25c; ^b., 75c; lb., 82.50. DEEP HEAD—This new strain of Brans ivickCabbage well deserves the name, being equal to Fottler's in earli- ness and other good qualities, but making a larger and thicker head, thus proving a better Winter keeper. All desiring a fine, large, hard- heading early cabbage will find Deep Head just what thev want. Pkt., 10 cts.;oz., 30 cts.; M lb., 81 00 ; lb., 83.00. DANISH BALL HEAD.-One of my customers in Denmark has solicited me to list this Cabbage for several years past. There it is grown in large quan- tities and considered the best Winter Cabbage, especially for shipment to for- eign countries. Heads are very hard, round, of good size and quality." Fine- Tained; good keeper. Pkt., 10c: oz.,30c
