AI^L-HEART LETTUCE. 



This excellent variety of Lettuce was origi- 

 nally introduced by us and has continued to grow 

 in favor of both private and market gardeners. 

 It is tlie most reliable hard-heading variety of 

 cabbage-lettuce and will give satisfaction where- 

 ever grown, as it rarely ever fails to make a 

 large, solid head and is adapted for both spring 

 and summer use, as it withstands intense heat 

 and forms magnificent large heads, leaves closely 

 set, with extremely solid heart, even before it 

 is half grown. The color is a beautiful yellow- 

 ish-green and the flavor is excellent, being rich 

 and buttery. This is the very best Lettuce for 

 the private garden. Pkt., lOcts. ; oz., 30 cts. ; 

 J lb., 80 cts. 



FRENCH 

 IINRIVAI.ED EETTUCE.

 glass or outside in the open ground. It is sim- 

 ilar to the well-known "Big Boston," and a 

 superior variety for home use. Heads large, 

 light green color, and rich, tender quality. Pkt., 

 10 cts.; oz., 30 cts.; ^ lb., 80 cts. 



DREER'S IJVONDERFUE 

 EETTUCE. 



This popular variety of Lettuce was intro- 

 duced by us a few years ago, and has constantly 

 grown in favor, as it is suitable for growing in all sections and 

 during all seasons. It is a crisp, cabbage heading Lettuce, 

 and produces heads which are extremely large, sometimes meas- 

 uring 12 to 15 inches across and weighing from 2 to 3 pounds 

 each, and because of its being slow to run to seed it is admir- 

 ably adapted for growing during the hot summer months either 

 in the North or South. The leaves are quite attractive, being 

 very much crumpled, the large heart blanches well, and the 

 quality is excellent, being crisp and tender. Pkt., 10 cts.; 

 oz., 20 cts.; i lb., 60 cts. 



NETTED ROCK MUSKMEI.ON. 



During the past few years there have been a number of 

 selections from the "Rocky Ford" Muskmelon placed upon the 

 market, many of which were no improvement whatever on the 

 original strain. This variety, however, is an exception, being 

 far superior in every way to all others of the type, and is with- 

 out doubt the best of all the medium-size, green-fleshed Musk- 

 melons. The size and shape are both desirable, and the heavy 

 netting makes it a very attractive Melon either for home use or 

 for marketing. The Melons are about the same 

 size as "Rocky Ford." nearly round, very 

 slightly ridged and heavily netted. The seed 

 cavity is small, and the flesh, which is green, is 

 thick, solid and extremely sweet, containing a 

 much higher percentage of sugar than any other 

 variety. A feature with this Melon, which is 

 greatly in its favor, is its ability to withstand 

 rust and blight, so much so that it is almost proof 

 against either. Pkt., 10 cts. ; oz., 15 cts. ; Jib., 

 40 cts.; lb., 11.25. 



ADMIRAE TOGO 



MUSKMELON. 



An orange-fleshed netted Gem, or Rocky 

 Ford, being of the same type both in size and 

 appearance and having the beautiful netting of 

 these varieties. The Alelons are not large, but 

 are a desirable size for serving in halves and 

 have a delicious flavor. Pkt., 10 cts.; oz., 15 

 cts.; Jib., 40 cts.; lb., $1.25. 



AIESA CRAIG ONION. 



A very large, yellow-fleshed variety of Onion 

 which is popular with English gardeners. It 

 resembles the American variety, "Prizetaker," 

 but will grow much larger and more globular in 

 form. The skin is an attractive straw-color, flesh 

 is mild, and the Onions keep remarkably well 

 for such large size. It will prove valuable to 

 those who grow Onions for exhibition purposes, 

 as it is the most attractive .nnd showy Onion that 

 can be grown. For producing the largest and 

 best Onions, it is best to sow seed in the hotbed 

 early in spring and transplant when of sufficient 

 size. Pkt., 10 cts.; oz., 40 cts.; J lb., $1.25; 

 lb., $4.00.
