Celery — Continued. 



NEW ROSE. In England the Pink or Red Celeries are 

 much more largely used than the White varieties, and we 

 have often wondered why there were not more grown in this 

 country. They possess many advantages over the white, 

 being hardier, more solid and better keepers. The New Sose is 

 the best of all the Red varieties, combining all these desira- 

 ble qualities, and is the most ornamental for the table, with 

 its beautiful rose-colored heart and pink stems. Pkt., 10c.; 

 oz., 25c.; ^Ib , 60e.; lb., 82.25.

THE CORY will produce good ears for boiling in fi/ty- 

 trt'o days from planting. It has a larger kernel than the 

 Marblehead and is quite distinct, being nearly white in color. 

 Our stock comes directly from Mr. Jos. Corv, the originator. 

 Pint, Wq.; qt., 20c.: peck" 75c.; bushel, S2.50.' 



FIRST OF ALL. This new variety is a selection from 

 the Cory, coming in a few days ahead of this famous sort. 

 The ears are about the same size as Cory, a little lighter in 

 color. It cannot fail to prove valuable for early market.

STABLER'S PEDIGREE EXTRA EARLY. A popu- 

 lar variety with Philadelphia gardeners, noted for its earli- 

 ness. Pint, 10c.; qt., 20c.; peck, 85c.; bush., 83.00. 



EARLY DAwN. This new and distinct sugar corn is 

 pronounced by those who have grown it a most valuable 

 introduction! It is unquestionably the Largest-eared 

 Wliite-cobbed Early Sweet Corii, with rich, creamy- 

 white kernels, so large, plump and deep that the shell or 

 hull, so prominent in most varieties, is reduced to a mini- 

 mum; the ears, in many instances, haviug sixteen to 

 twentj--two rows. Pkt., 5c.; pint, 10c.; qt., 20c.; peck, 81.00; 

 bush.. S3.50. 



NEW EARLY BONANZA. A few years since, an 

 enterprising market gardener of this city astonished his 

 brother gardeners by having in market, several weeks ahead 

 of any of them, large. fine ears of sweet corn in great abund- 

 lance, for which he obtained almost fabulous prices. Having 

 become quite celebrated for its fine quality, it was much 

 sought after. Its good qualities were fixed by careful selec- 

 tion of seed, and it was named New Early Bokanza. It is 

 undoubtedly as early as Minnesota, Crosby's and other extra 

 early varieties, while the ears are much larger. It is exceed- 

 ing!!/ prolific, bearing two or three good ears to the stalk. 

 Pint, 10c.; qt., 20c.; peck, 85c.; bush., 83.00. 



^URBANK'S 



Early Main^ 



BURBANK'S EARLY MAINE SAVEET CORN. 



Wlieu Mr. E. W. Burbank, of Maine, wrote us some years 

 ago that he had originated a pure white Sweet Corn, earlier 

 than Corj', we were at first inclined to doubt his statement, 

 but his claim has now been confirmed by many of our 

 Market Garden customers, who write they find it to be fully 

 three to five days earlier, with many other decided ad- 

 vantages over the famous Cory Corn. The ear is much 

 longer and larger, with a pure white cob, kernels rich cream 

 white, sweet and juicy. Stalk grows to medium height, 

 and on good ground will average two ears. For large, 

 white ears, sweetness and the length of time it remains fit 

 for use, Burbank's Early Maine takes first place. Pkt., 

 5e.; pint, 20c.; qt., 35e., post-paid; qt., 20c.; peck, 85c.; bush., 

 83.00, by freight or express. 



NEW WHITE CORY SAVEET CORN. For several 

 years selections have been made of the few white grains 

 that always appeared in the Cory, until we now have a 

 tiioroiighbred Wliite Cory Corn, entirely free from the 

 objectionable red color, making it look much nicer for the 

 table. In earliness, dwarf habit and other respects, it is 

 exactly the same as the well-known Cory, which it will un- 

 doubtedly entirely supplant. Pkt., 5c.; pint, 20c.; qt. 36e., 

 post-paid. Qt., 20c.; peck, 85c.; bush., $3.00.
