VARIETIES OF LATE CABBAGES. At the head of these I would place BURPEE’S SUREHEAD, which has done so well for me since I began planting it, never failing a single season, that I now plant my whole crop of it, instead of planting two or three kinds as formerly, to guard against poor seed or a bad season. It is an improved type of the Premium Flat Dutch, to which it is superior in the evenness and regularity of its heads and the “sureness” of every plant to form a fine head. With me the heads average larger than the Flat Dutch, are rather more rounding in shape and are of the finest quality. [Illustration: EARLY SUMMER CABBAGE.] [Illustration: BURPEE’S SUREHEAD CABBAGE.] [Illustration: BURPEE’S SHORT-STEM DRUMHEAD CABBAGE.] SHORT-STEM DRUMHEAD.--This variety produces on extra short stems, only a few inches in height, very large solid heads, often twenty-five pounds in weight. It is from this kind that the very large heads seen at the county fairs in the fall are grown, and where the ground is heavily manured and well cultivated enormous crops of this variety can be grown; it is of fine quality, very solid and an excellent keeper.

ATLEE BURPEE & CO PHILADA] DANISH BALL HEAD.--This variety has only been recently introduced, but bids fair to take a leading place as a winter variety; the heads are quite round and very solid; they are of medium size and very handsome appearance, which make it a good market variety, while the quality fully equals its good looks.
