 portion; very tender aud mild. Pkt., 4 cts.; oz., 10 cts. 



SALSIFY OR VEGETABLE OYSTER, Long White^The well-known standard. Pkt.. 

 4 cts.; oz., 10 cts. 



Salsify is one of the most delicious and nutritious of vegetables, and should be 

 more generally cultivated for use in winter when the supply of real good vegetables 

 is so limited. It has a grassy top and a long, white, tapering root, nearly resemb- 

 ling a slim parsnip. When properly cooked it resembles closely the taste and 

 flavor of the oyster and is a good substitute for it; very wholesome and nutritious. 

 The roots are either boiled, or mashed and made into delicious fritters. 



SPINACH, Victoria — The foliage is heavy, the broad dark green leaves being of tae 

 true Savoy appearance, and of the finest quality. It remains in prime condition 

 from two to three weeks after all other varieties have run to seed. Pkt., 4 cts.; 

 oz., 10 cts. 



SQUASH, Hubbard — The most popular and widely used of the winter squashes. 

 Fruit is oblong and pointed, heavily warted, dark green in color, with orange- 

 colored flesh. Is remarkable for its keeping qualities. Pkt., 4 cts.; oz., 10 cts. 



SQUASH, Early White Bush iscalloped — The plants are of true bush growth, pro- 

 ducing fruit ready for use very early in the summer. Pkt., 4 cts.; oz., 10 cts. 



SQUASH, Golden Summer Crookneck — Plants of true bush growth, very early fruiting 

 and productive. The squashes are of the crookneck type, rich golden yellow, thickly 

 warted. Pkt., 4 cts. ; oz., 10 cts. 



TOMATO, Ponderosa — This is the largest-fruited Tomato and is of fine quality for 

 slicing. The vines are of strong growth ; fruits largely oblong in form, deep 

 through, and generally ridged or ribbed; deep purple in color. They are solidly 

 fleshy, with small seed cells; of fine sweet flavor. Planted in good soil, pruned 

 to a single stem, fruits frequently attain a weight of one pound or more. Pkt., 

 4 cts.; oz., 15 cts. 



TOaiATO, Chalk's Early Jewel — The largest and smoothest of the extra early red 

 tomatoes. Somewhat later, a week or ten days, than Earliana, the fruits are larger 

 and smoother. The vines grow very compactly, are immensely productive and 

 better still, bear continuously throughout the season, in which respect it far 

 surpasses Earliana. Pkt., 4 cts.; oz., 15 cts. 



RUTA BAGAS, or "Swedish" Turnips — These Swedish or Russian Turnips require 

 a longer season in which to grow than do the turnips, and with us the seed should 

 be sown about the first to the middle of July to make large bulbs. The flesh is 

 more solid and richer in flavor than that of the turnips, and they will keep in fine 

 condition more readily during the winter months. Pkt., 4 cts.; oz., 10 cts. 



TURNIP, Golden Ball, or Orange Jelly — Very tender and of fine flavor. Pkt., 4 cts.; 

 oz., 10 cts.

 clear white, early and of fine flavor. A fine table variety. Pkt., 4 cts.; oz., 10 cts. 



WATER3IELON, Fordhook Early — Without a rival. This is the earliest large- 

 fruited melon in cultivation. These fruits are of good size, rather short and 

 blocky in form, with large diameter. Skin dark green, occasionally with faint 

 strips, of lighter green. Flesh bright red, crisp, sweet and of splendid quality. 

 Rind quite thin, but skin tough. Pkt., 4 cts.; oz., 10 cts. 



VVATER5IELON, Sweet Heart — Large heavy fruits of oval or round form; skin very 

 pale green, with distinct netted lines of a slightly darker shade. The large hand- 

 some fruits bear shipping well. The solid flesh is a deep rich red, crisp and melt- 

 ing. Pkt., 4 cts.; oz., 10 cts. 



This list of vegetable seeds which I am offering is the best to be obtained, 



while not containing the novelties of the larger houses, it is true and tried, the 



very limited space prevents me from illustrating the different varieties ns I 



should like but the selection I have made is the choicest. If you have never grown 



your own vegetables try a few this year, the packets are full size, and offered at 



very much reduced prices. For larger qunntities by express at customer's expense. 



Write for special prices.
