PEERLESS EARLY. This Cabbage is selected from a cross made by a Massachusetts market gardener, who claims it to be superior to Henderson's Early Summer, and says of it: "Nearly equaling Jersey Wakefield in earliness, and forming very much larger heads (often weighing more than twelve poun ds apiece). Very round and uniform in shape and general appearance, fine grained, small, short stump, with few loose leaves, thus allowing them to be set out nearer together; it also has the very valuable quality of remaining, after fully ma- tured, without cracking or bursting, much longer than any ; Per pkt. 10 cts.; oz. 25 cts.; 34 B> 75 cts.; per ft) $ BURPEE'S SUPERIOR LARGE LATE FLAT DUTCH.
