Buckbee's Sunset. This grand novelty awarded prize medal. The Director of the Maine Experi- 

 mental College at Orno, writes: ''I consider Buckbee's Sunset the most promising new variety.'' 

 Extended experience has shown this variety of my own introduction to be one of the very best 

 sorts; not only for market gardeners but for the home garden. Tops small, upright growing, 

 so that the rows may be close together ; leaf, stems, and veins dark red ; blade green ; the stock 

 which I offer will produce a crop more uniform in shape, color and quality than any other.
