GREGORY'S D IT /I C 

 EXCELSIOR ^"-^^ 



" H beats everything Sn the way of a pea I have ever raised. I have raised 

 NoiVs Excelsior, Thomas Laxton, Gradus, IXIaska, Clipper and Telephone, 

 but Gregory's Excelsior is a corlter, and I shall use it exclusively,** 



So says E. W, Harrington, Watertown, Mams, 



Without exception the finest low-growing, second early pea yet 

 introduced. Hardy — it can be planted early. Large pods, stout 

 vines, heavy cropper. Likes rich soil, but does better than other 

 varieties on poor soil and in dry weather. 



New Swedish Oats — Pronounced superior to all other 

 oats. Doubles the crop of many varieties. Generous sample on re- 

 ceipt of stamp to pay postage. 



Gregory's Imp. Original Crosby Corn — The 



leader in sweet corn. Early, prolific, sweet. All seed grown on our 

 own farm, 



Viclcery's Forcing Cucumber— Very uniform in shape 



and size and averages more No. 1 cucumbers than any other variety. 

 Seed grown on our own farms. 



Gregory's Imp. Yelloiv Globe Onion- 

 Resists blight and has all the good qualities of the Dan- 

 vers. New England grown seed. 



Synunes* Blue Hubbard Squash— Out 



last season for the first time ; it won unstinted praise 

 from growers. Keeps well. Thrifty grower. Our 

 own grown seed.

better than mats or boards. Besides 

 furnishing protection it permits the 

 plants to get all the light all the time 

 — which means earlier and better crops. 

 Glass is held in place without putty. 

 Can't work loose, easily replaced. 

 '' Read what this man did 



Mn R. A. Mason, Westerly, R. I. .writes : 

 I wanted the Sunlight Sash for cold- 

 frames in which to harden my plants off. 

 I had to cover the single sashes with 

 mats, but even at 10 degrees below zero 

 I did not cover the Sunlights. My beets 

 would have frozen under single glass. I 

 am pulling them now (May 4th)." 

 Some of the things you can grow 



Fresh lettuce and radishes any time you want 

 them. Violets all winter; pansies in bloom in 

 February or March. Cabbage, cauliflower, 

 beets, tomato, pepper and sweet potato plants to 

 set out earlier than under the single glass sash 

 because they get the light all day long — are 

 never covered — and therefore grow faster — 

 become sturdier. 



Agents Wanted. Find out
