BUetf BEE'S IMPROVED TOP SETS— By far the most su- 

 perior variety. Mr. Minckler, the le:i <J i n^r market gardener of Osh- 

 kosh, Wis., writes : "I consider the Improved Top Sets far ahead of 

 a n v other variety. They ace the best Onions to eat, will yield at 

 least one-third more and ripen much earlier than any of the Seed 

 Onions. I shall plant them for my main crop next season." It is 

 the best keeper lhat I know of, having kept perfectly solid for over 

 a year. I should advise you to order early, as my stock is sure to be 

 exhausted before the season is over. Give this variety a trial. Post- 

 paid, pt. 22c, ; qt. 40c; at buyer's expense, is bu. 75c; % bu. $1.25; Yi 

 bu, $2.25: bu. $4.00.

 greatly pleased with the new varieties of seed that you 

 sent me free for experimental purposes; they are deserv- 

 ing of general use by all ptrsons interested in the best 

 Seeds. I also wish to particularly recommend Buekbee's 

 Earliest Sunrise Sweet Corn, Early Chief Cauliflower, 

 Snowball Popcorn and would also say that your Ped- 

 igree Union need can't be beat." 



J. W. WAGNER, Arlington, Wis. "I have thought 

 best to write you in regard to the splendid results that 

 I have had with Buekbee's Seeds and Plants. The 

 plants all lived. My garden was a sight to behold; 

 every seed grew — in fact, Buekbee's Seeds have given 

 splendid risults while seeds purchased from other 

 firms did not. I shall hope to continue to do business 

 with, you in the future."
