long as either before showing decay. Its great

melon, and have the singular and very valuable ! 
quality of rooting from every joins, adding greatly 
to the productiveness and life of the vines. The 
meat is more scarlet, finer and of much better 
quality. These strong claims have been more 
than verified by hundreds of other growers.” I 
wish tocall the particular attention of my cus- 
temers to its strong point of rooting at 
every joint. Towards the middle of September, 
when other Melons, particularly the Kolb Gem, 
are absolutely dead, the Dixie will be sending out 
new shoots, and the foliage will be as luxuriant 
as at any time of its growth. This one quality 
alone, if nothing else, would recommend Dixie for 
market purposes. Packet, 5 cents; ounce, 10 cents;

W 1 W. The White Wonder surpasses the White Pearl, 
’ hite onder Cucumber. both in handsome appearance and fine qual- 
ity, while its strong, vigorous, extremely healthy habit of growth enables the vines to pro- 
duce a large crop of perfect fruit, even under adverse conditions. The Cucumbers are thickly 
set, remarkably uniform in color, shape and size; they average about eight inches long; the 
skin thin, but very tough, and the pearly white flesh is exquisitely fine in quality, very brittle, 
andremains solid for a long time. The color is always ivory white. Owing to its unusual 
hardiness of constitution, the White Wonder can be planted earlier than most other Cucum- | iS 
bers, and is also a sure cropper. Pkt., 10 cts.; 0z., 20 cts.; 14 1b., 40 cts.; lb., $1.25.

een completely overcome, the ears being

The cob is remarkably small, giving great
