It is the largest of the early round-headed varieties, and its habit of growth allows of its being planted close together in the garden, thereby producing a larger number of heads to a given area, a feature which is very im- portant. Pkt., 10 cts.; ^ oz., 35 cts.; oz., 60 cts.; i lb., 206 Early Jersey Wakefield. Although the round headed sorts are becoming increasingly popular, this old standard sort still continues to be the favor- ite with the majority of our customers. Thus we are extremely careful of our stock of this, and have confidence that our seed will produce early, solid pointed heads of splendid uniformity. Neither quality nor fine texture are lacking, leaves having' very small midribs, which improve both appear- ance and flavor when cooked.
