Varieties of Special Merit 
UR general stocks are unexcelled in quality 
O and better seeds cannot be purchased at 
any price. The following recently im- 
proved strains, however, are worthy of special 
consideration and should be grown by every 
progressive market gardener. 
BEANS 
NEW STRINGLESS GREEN POD—The very prolific nature, 
season of growth, length and roundness of pods are identi- 
eal with Full Measure. More vigorous and hardy, however, 
and known to produce successful crops when other varieties 
have failed. Qt., 75c; pk., $4.75; bu., $17.50. 
BEET 
NEW MODEL—Fills a definite need among market gar- 
deners and has met with success. Practical growers realiz- 
ing the superior quality ef this strain are ordering in 25, 
50 and 100-pound lots, using this one variety throughout the 
entire season. Being entirely free from white zones, ex- 
tremely dark, smooth, with short tops and excellent quality, 
it always commands the highest market price. Pkt., 10c; 
% Ib., 30c; Ib., $1.00. 
SUPERIOR EXTRA CURLED GREEN SCOTCH — More 
curled than any other Borecole and yielding many more 
bushels per acre due to its extremely vigorous growth. 
Nearly as hardy as Hardy Winter and now very popular with 
many of our customers. Pkt., 10c; oz., 20c; %4 Ib., 60c; Ib., 
$2.00. 
BROCCOLI 
CALABRESE GREEN SPROUTING OR HEADING — The 
accompanying illustration shows the center head of Cala- 
brese Broccoli greatly reduced. After this is cut, numerous 
sprouts develop, forming smaller heads which are also mar- 
ketable. Broccoli is becoming very popular, commanding 
high prices, and should be grown more extensively by Mary- 
Pkt., 10c; 0z., 50c; 
land truckers. 1% Ib., $1.75; lb., $6.00.

NEW SELECTED JERSEY WAKEFIELD—An improved

head. Pkt., 10c; oz., 30c; %4 Ib., $1.00; Ib., $3.00. 
CANTALOUPE

however, is its deep solid color. Pkt., 10c; oz. 25ce; 14 Ib., 
75c; Ib. $2.50. 
CORN 
MANNS’? EARLY SUPERIOR —This new variety is of 
remarkable size considering its earliness. The ears are 8

ance of the rich, tender, well-filled ears make it a very 
desirable sort for the Market Gardener. Qt., 35c; pk., $2.25; 
bu., $8.00.

NEW DARK EVERGREEN—Retains its evry dark green 
color for an exceptionally long period. Very prolific, of

Garden Variety. One of the earliest of its type. Pkt., 10c; 
oz., 15c; %4 Ib., 40c; Ib., $1.25.
