PERKINS' MAM- 

 MOTH LONG POD- 

 1»EU. Tliis distinct new 

 okia is by far tiie best. 

 It w;is originated by 

 M. B. Perkins, a well- 

 known New Jersey 

 trucker, after many 

 years of careful study 

 and selection. Its pro- 

 ductiveness is simply 

 wonderful. The pods 

 shoot out from the stalk 

 within three inches of 

 tlie ground, and the 

 whole plant is covered 

 with them to the ex- 

 treme height of the 

 plant. The pods are an 

 intense green color, of 

 unusual length, nine to 

 ten inches, very slim, 

 and do not get hard, as 

 is the ease with other 

 okras. It is also much 

 sought after by canners, 

 being the best of all 

 green sorts for canning 

 for winter use. Our seed 

 is grown by the origin- 

 ator. Pkt, 5c.; oz., lOc;
