 resembles the Netted Gem, but interior

 Rose, the flesh being a rich salmon color, 

 very thick, solid and of fine flavor. Pkt., 

 10 cts.; oz., 20 cts ; J lb., 60 cts.; lb.,

Deer's Pkizetaker Leek. 



DEFENDER 3IUSKMELON. 



A salmon-fleshed variety, medium size and of exquisite 

 flavor. The fruits are oval in shape, slightly ribbed and 

 are covered with a slight netting. The flesh is firm, fine 

 grained, rich, deep yellow, darker than the Osage and 

 better flavor. The flesh extends to the rind and retains its 

 quality to the outer shell, which, while thin, is hard and 

 firm, so that the edible portion may be removed with a 

 spoon, leaving a rind no thicker than an orange. The 

 vine is vigorous and productive, and the fruits, because of 

 their hard, firm rind, keep and bear shipment remarkably 

 well. Pkt., 10 cts.; oz., 20 cts.; | lb., 60 cts.; lb., $1.50. 



NEWPORT MESKMELON. 



A small Melon, but of superior quality. In size, shape 

 and appearance it is of the original Jenny Lind type. It 

 matures very early, and produces an abundant crop. The 

 skin is coarsely netted, and during the early stage of its 

 growth is dark green, but takes on a golden-yellow color as 

 the Melons mature. The flesh is light green, very juicy, 

 and of a peculiar spicy flavor. Pkt., 10 cts.; oz., 20 cts.; 

 $ lb., 40 cts.; lb., 51.00. 



DREER'S ALE-HEART 

 LETTUCE. 



A very superior variety of cabbage Let- 

 tuce, appropriately named on account of 

 the beautiful, hard, close head it makes. 

 Since we first introduced this Lettuce three 

 years ago the demand for seed has steadily 

 increased. This demand, coming mainly 

 from our regular customers, shows that the 

 variety is a pleasing one, and that its good 

 qualities are fully appreciated. It is 

 adapted to both spring and summer use, as 

 it withstands intense heat. Forms large 

 heads, leaves closely set, with extremely 

 solid heart, even before it is half grown. 

 The color is a beautiful yellowish-green 

 and the flavor is excellent, being rich and 

 buttery. This is the very best Lettuce for 

 the private garden. Pkt., 10 cts.; oz., 35 

 cts.; i lb., $1.00. 



DREER'S 



" WONDERFUL " 



LETTUCE. 



We are fortunate in being the intro- 

 ducers of this valuable variety, being the 

 first to offer the seed six years ago. The 

 fact that many of those who purchased 

 the seed of " Wonderful " the first time it 

 was offered have continued to include it 

 in their order each spring is an indication 

 of its pleasing qualities. The large, 

 white heads resemble cabbage in their 

 solidity, and frequently weigh 2 and 3 

 pounds each. The quality is superb, 

 being crisp, rich and tender. It with- 

 stands the heat well, making a fine 

 variety for all seasons. Pkt., 10 cts,; 

 oz,, 25 cts.; £ lb., 75 cts.
