SUPERIOR VEGETABLE SEEDS
J. MANNS & CO., Forrest and Hillen Sts., Baltimore, Md.
.11.
CABBAGE
SECOND EARLY SORTS
Vninn O"® °^ *^^ earliest main crop cabbages of superior quality.
r Uiyu ygj.y desirable where a large, uniformly round head with
short stem and compact growth is wanted. Sure to produce a crop
under difficult conditions, good keeper.
All Head Early or New Early ,^;rrm?n "color as weu
as in shape and size, its sure heading qualities and tenderness make it
a favorite for the home garden. By reason of its compact growth, it
is possible to produce 1,000 more heads per acre than many other good
sized varieties. For winter use sow in July. Splendid sort for kraut
making.
I?nflti 1?1n+ niif/.h Excellent large early flat sort, producing
t^ariy r IUL UUltn ^^jj^ j^^j^^g ^j^^^ mature with Early Sum-
mer. The stem is short and it has comparatively few outer leaves.
Compares favorably with Large Late Flat Dutch but much earlier and
smaller.
American Drumhead Savoy L'voy "ciat' and^ve^' d?s!
tinct from all other sorts. It forms the hardest heads and is the best
for either early or late crops. The leaves are heavily crimped or
savoyed and grow closely about the large, solid, dark green heads. The
flavor is far superior to that of other cabbages, and for this reason is
very much in demand. It is an excellent keeper and very
hardy. Entire "pits" of it will keep in perfect condition
until May.
American Drumhead Savoy
JTrtflii Qjintntcf Heads medium in size, round, some-
tLariy i^Ummer ^^^^ flattened, compact and solid;
outer leaves spreading and light green in color. Ten days
later than Jersey Wakefield, and one of the best large second
early sorts.
Henderson's Succession ^seaS cY^biTe,
about a week later than Early Summer but much larger and
can be planted closer because of its compact growth. It is
sure to head, very uniform in habit and the quality is
excellent.
AJI 9/7/Tc/)ne A reliable variety to use when only one
/If-t ijvuaunn planting of cabbage is made. It is equally
as good for fall and winter as for summer use. Nearly as
early as Early Summer and much larger heads of the best
quality are produced.
'^Wisconsin All Seasons Zf^-^^ resistant, aii
Extremely popular with the private gar-
dener because of the sure heading quali-
ties and the remarkably large, uniform, heavy heads. A
good keeper and one of the best for late crops.
Danish Ball Head or Hollander h^^dy sure
heading, heavy variety, which has proven to be the best
keeper and the most desirable for distant markets. Exceed-
ingly hardy and standing dry weather very well.
^Wisconsin Hollander Yellows Resistant
A disease resistant strain of the Danish ball head type, very
large, hard, sure heading.
Sure Head
New Danish Round Head Psr^uf Hiad.^hrs
less outer foliage. The heads are larger in size and are set
on shorter stalks, maturing two weeks earlier. They are
extremely solid, of sweet flavor and tender texture.
LATE OR WINTER SORTS
JJnjiepY Very popular with large cabbage growers in
Pennsylvania. An extremely large, late sort,
producing very hard round heads.
PrPmiltm Flat Dllfoh ^ ^^""y ^°°.^ variety for
iremium nut, uuitn f^jj ^^^ ^^ ^^^ making
kraut. The heads are very solid, tender and of superior
quality. They mature earlier than other late varieties but
do not keep as well over the winter.
Extra Large Late Flat ^m^c/i Jh^ ^b-t and
late variety, possessing all the qualities a winter variety
should have. It is hardy, vigorous, and high in quality. The
heads are "as solid as a stone" and for that reason keep well
for winter use. A favorite with the private gardener as
well as the trucker.
