We obtained a few pounds, ex- pressly to d i s t r i- bute, gratis, for trial among our customers, before offering it for sale. From all parts of the country we have received expressions of unan- imous praise,and we could fill many pages of our Catalogue with testimonials. The Vandergaw forms large, solid heads,much larger than Early Summer, and almost as early. While if planted later it makes excellent heads for winter. The quality is very fineand,likeourfamous Surehead Cabbage, it is re- markable for its certainty to head. Per pkt. 5 cts.; oz. 25 cts; % ft 75 cts.; per ft $ Fottler's Early Drumhead, OR SHORT STEM Brunswick Cabbage. In its improved type, this is a first-class second early, large- heading Drumhead Cabbage. It heads shoi'tly after the Early Flat Dutch, and is most excellent for summer and fall use. In New England it is also largely grown for winter, as the heads are very hard and solid. If the plants are set out late it makes one of the very best winter cab- bages. As shown in the illustra- tion, the plants have very short stems, and are very compact, of fine quality; our select strain is very sure heading.
