{Novelty 1889.) 



This is an improved stock of Black Wax, 

 so superior to the ordinary strains as to be 

 worthy of a new name. By a comparative 

 test in our trial grounds, we proved beyond 

 question that it was earlier than any other 

 stock, was perfectly round podded, and ofu 

 an even rich golden color. Enormously 



productive. {See cut.) 



Price, 40 cts. per pint ; 60 cts. per qt. ; $4.00 per peck.

 package of the genuine is 

 seaieti with our Trade 

 Mark Label. Any seed 

 ' oHered not so sealed 

 IS spurious. 



"We believe this to be the finest strain of 

 Late Cabbage that has ever been offered. It 

 produces regular, even heads of enormous 

 size, and can be relied upon to produce a 

 greater weight of crop from the same space 

 of ground than any other late sort, from the 

 fact of its producing so few outer leaves and 

 going all to head. {See cut.) 



Price, 25 cts. per packet ; 5 packets, $1.00 ; SI. 50 per oz.

New^ Cabbag^e, Midsummer Savoy, 



The Savoy leaved .r^tK^s^i^j 



Cabbages are of much 

 finer quality than the 

 smooth sorts, being 

 almost as tender 

 when cooked as Caul- 

 iflower. This is a; 

 distinct and useful" 

 sort, being but little 

 later than the Dwarf 

 Ulm Savoy, and pro- 

 ducing heads of 

 double the size. The 

 heads are beautifully netted, of a delicate light green color. 

 Price, 20 cts. per packet ; 75 cts. per oz. 



EXPRESS CABBAGE. 



This new and very early cabbage, while not as large as 

 the Jersey Wakefield, 

 is four or five daj's ear- 

 lier, and for a first early 

 variety cannot be ex- 

 celled. It resembles the 

 Early Etampes in char 

 acter and appearance, 

 having solid, compact 

 heads of conical form, 

 of a yellowish green 

 color, very desirable. 

 The original introduc- 

 ers (Vilmorin-Andrieux 

 & Co., Paris) refused an 

 offer of S5,000 for the 

 exclusive privilege of offering this variety in America. 

 Price, 15 cts. per packet ; 40 cts. per oz.
