Flower Seed for 1880, rich in engravings, from photo- 

 graplis of the originals, will be sent FKEE to all who apply. 

 My old customers need not write for it. I offer one of the lar- 

 gest collections of vegetable seed ever sent out by any seed 

 house in America, a large portion of which were grown on my 

 six seed farms. Full directions for cultivation on each package. 

 All seed wan-anted to be both fresh and true to name ; so far, that 

 should it prove otherwise, / ivill refill the order gratis. The 

 original introducer of the Hubbard Squash, Phiney's Melon, 

 Marl)lehead Cabbages, Mexican Corn, and scores of other vege- 

 tables. I invite the patronage of all who are anxious to have their 

 seed directly from the grower, fresh, true, and of the very best strain. 

 New Vegetables a Specialty.
