AN EMINENT AND SURPRISINGLY FINE NOVELTY. 



New Sandwich Island— (See cut.) — It affords me gi'eat pleasure to present to you this new "Pumpkin Novelty." My 

 jweL know trom experience that I nevei* offer a "novelty" unless it has been carefully tested, and this new pumpkin is no 

 -ption. Coming from a remote section of the Sandwich Islands — where by chance my representative found it — hasah'eady 

 eated a great furor in its new home. Remarkably distinct in every way, of fine size, very pi-oliflc bearer, and such deliciously 

 hick flesh. An escellont keeper. Certainly a gn-and future is in store for this "New Pumpkin." Seed is naturally scarce this season 

 yet I place the price within the reach of all. Order early before my supply is exhausted. Pkt. 10c, 3 pkts. 25c, 12 pkts. for only $1. 



lBnckbee*s King of 3Iarainoths— (See cut.)— Won- 

 derfully grand and colossal variety, astonishing every 

 one by its aiammoth size and heavyweight. Think of 

 It, a single pumpkin weighing 469 pounds. Many of you 

 saw this specimen on exhibition at the World's Pair. 

 It IS always a prize winner at every fair and exhibition. 

 Notwithstanding its enormous size is one of the best 

 pie and table varieties grown. A splendid keeper and 

 exceptionally valuable for feeding purposes. I control 

 the complete stock of this variety. Send to Buckbee for 

 true scock seed. I do not save seed from any specimens
