Donald's Elmira. — The delicate green color is 

 noticeable, different from either the famous 

 Bai'^r's Philadelphia Mammoth or Palmetto, 

 while the stocks are more tender and succulent. 

 Its mammoth size can be realized from the fact

 stalks will average four pounds in weight. It 

 requires much less labor in cutting and bunch- 

 ing, thus lessening the expense of marketing.

 by mail; 75c. per 100 by express; $5.00 per 1000.
