SGflRLET KflSKMYR TURNIP. 



This new, extra early, bright scarlet-colored turnip 

 has a striking resemblance to a large radish, being as 

 round and uniform in shape. The flesh is as white and 

 crisp as a radish, and of most excellent cooking qual- 

 ities. It matures almost as quickly as the earliest 

 radishes, being far ahead in this respect of any other 

 turnip, and when cooked is of unsurpassed quality. 

 Also a good keeper, and with its beautiful scarlet colors 

 early maturity and fine quality, it is entitled to a place 

 among our garden favorites, and will please everyone 

 who gives it a trial.

 v.-itiou similar to the Early Purple Milan and

 base of bulb. The entire "bulb, inside and out, is 

 clear ivory-white in color, the outer surface is

 doubtedly find a welcome in our markets, as in addition to the heavv crop assured bv its adaptability for 

 close<planting, it will be found to be fit for use at least a week earlier than anv other white variety in culti- 

 vation.

FAXON :: SQUASH. 



A distinctive feature of this Squash is, when ripe they vary 

 in color, some being a pale yellow, while others are a mottled- 

 green. The flesh is a deep orange yellow, seed cavity very 

 small, shell thin, but squashes are hard and solid. It is one of 

 the best squashes ever tasted, sweet and dry, and for squash 

 pies it must be tried to be appreciated. It matures early and is 

 one of the best winter squashes, being a very late keeper. It is 

 the only squash that every specimen is of good quality without 

 regard to size or whether it is ripe or green. It is enormously 

 productive, and of medium size. This new variety is destined 

 to become a standard amongst squashes. 



Price per pkt. 5 cts., oz. 15 cts., 14 lb. 30 cts., lb. $1.00. 



Green flountain Squash. 



The introducers say: This sterling novelty originated in Northern Vermont and we think it the best 

 winter squash of recent introduci ion. Although somewhat like the Hubbard this grand new variety difl:"ers 

 materially from that old and popular sort in being superior in point of size as well as in sweetness and color 

 of fiesh. The fruit is uniformly round, symmetrical and larger than the Hubbard and it has a beautiful net- 

 ting of darker green instead oif the wartiness of that variety. The rind is thin but hard and the flesh very 

 deep orange red, without any of the objectionable green tinge near the rind, so common in the best winter 

 sorts. 



It cooks very quickly and evenly and is the best of all squashes for pies. 

 The vine is hardy, early and certain to mature the large crop it produces.
