i-iendeksons SUCCESSION CABBAGE. The Grandest Cabbage in Existence! ABSOLUTELY PERFECT IN EVERY RESPECT. FOR EITHER SUMMER OR WINTER USE. It is grown largely by the Most Critical Truckers from Canada to Mexico and Receives Nothing But Praise. HEADS HARD AND UNIFORM Averaging 10 to 12 Pounds in Weight and 36 Inches in Circumference. THE MOST KELIABLE CABBAGE EVER RAISED. HENDERSONS SUCCESSION CABBAGE we consider one of our most valuablecontributions to horticulture. It may be classed as a second early variety, corning ina few days later than Early Summer, but it is immeasurably superior to that variety;it is nearly double the size and is absolutely true to its type under all conditions. Inaddition to this, it has no tendency whatever to run to seed. We can say without ex-aggeration that it is the finest cabbage in existence to-day; whether for medium early,main crop or late use, it has no equal. It is so finely bred and so true to type that ina field of twenty acres every head appears
