Long Standing Prickly. 



This is the Largest, Thickest Leaved and Best 



Keeping Spinage we have ever seen. It is very har- 

 dy, standing the winter better than any other, and is 

 equally desirable for summer planting. We think it the 



best Spinage for general use. Per packet, 5 cents; oz., 



10 cents ; 2 oz., 15 cents ; % lb., 20 cents ; lb., 40 cts.

Early Red Apple. 



This Splendid Novelty is an Extra 

 Early Tomato, perfectly smooth, beautiful- 

 ly colored, and of finer quality than any 

 other Early Tomato we have ever tested. The 

 Tomatoes have good size and are very uniform. We 

 predict that this will occupy among extra early sorts 

 the place which the Optimus does for general crop, 

 viz., The Very Best of its Season. 



Per packet, 10 cents ; oz., 40 cents ; 2 oz., 75 cents

D. M. Ferry & Go's Optimus. 



It is unnecessary for us to dwell on the good 

 qualities of our Optimus. It is well named and 

 known, — the Handsomest, Most Productive, Best. 



But we wish to remind our friends that to get the 

 best Seed they must send to Head Quarters. We 

 assure them we have spared no effort to keep our 

 stock perfect. Per packet, 5 cents; oz., 35 cents; 

 2 oz., 60 cents; % lb., $1.00; lb., $3.50. 



Golden Quaen. 



The bright, clear yellow, with a faint blush 

 of carmine on one side, makes this the most beau- 

 tiful of all Tomatoes, and worth cultivating 

 on that account. It is also one of the best in 

 flavor. Our stock has been carefully grown and 

 the blush is much better developed than when 

 first sent out. Per packet, 5 cents; oz., 40 cents; 

 2 oz., 75 cents; % lb., $1.25; lb., $4.00. 



White Apple. 



This is the best Tomato of all to eat fro7n the hand. Its flavor is more like that of a delicate plum than a 

 tomato. Fer packet, 5 cents; oz., 40 cents; 2 oz., 75 cents; % lb., $1.25.

Tomatoes for Preserving. 



We have taken the same pains with these usually neglected kinds as 

 with the larger varieties. Each of the stocks is pure and unmixed, and 

 of much finer type than is usually seen. Per packet, 5 cents; oz., 30 

 cents; 2 oz., 55 cents; %. lb., $1.00; lb., $3.00. 



Extra Early Purple Top Milan. 



Strap Lkaved. 



CSee page J<?.) 



This is incomparably the best variety for forcing. 

 It is extremely early and very compact in growth. It is 

 hardy, and so one of the very best for early planting 

 out of doors. It matures the quickest of any. The 

 bulbs are very handsome, and the flesh excellent. Owing 

 to the shortage in crop this year there will be a strong 

 temptation to dealers to substitute inferior varieties. We 

 have been fortunate in securing a large supply grown 

 from selected bulbs, and can send out the best seed in the 

 country. Per packet, 5 cents; oz., 10 cents; 2 oz., 15 

 cents; % lb., 25 cents; lb., 80 cents.
