 OUR CHOICEST SELECTIONS FOR QUALITY, QUANTITY AND CONTINUITY AT A VERY GREAT SAVING OF COST 



Henderson's Collections of Vegetable Seeds 



Contain seeds of only true and tried varieties, most carefully selected to give a continuous supply of vegetables of exclusively 

 igh quality, throughout the season. The quantities are proportioned to meet the requirements of such gardens as are indicated by 

 he titles of the collections, will be found convenient for patrons who find it somewhat confusing and irksome to look through the 

 atalogue and who prefer our judgment as to kinds and quantities. It may be that there are one or more items in these collections that 

 ome will not desire, but even if such are not wanted, the great saving in price will more than compensate. We cannot allow any 

 Iterations, because these collections are put up in quantities, ready to ship, before the commencement of our busy season, thus 

 nabling us to sell them at very much less than the articles would cost separately.
