Henderson's Selected 

 HALF^LONG DANVERS CARROT 



A handsome, half -long cylindrical, stump-rooted Carrot of good size and 

 of a rich dark orange color; it grows to a large size; is smooth, and the flesh 

 very close in texture with very little core. It is a first-class Carrot for al 

 soils and has yielded 25- to 30 tons per acre, with the smallest length of 

 root of any now grown. It is more easily harvested than the longer types 

 and is excellent to store for winter, for stock or table use. 



Price, 10c. oz., 25c. M lb-, 70c. lb. {See engraving.) 



CHANTENAY CARROT 



This splendid Carrot belongs to the half-long "stump" or blunt-rooted 

 type, but differs from all others of this class by its greater girth, bulk and 

 consequent yield. It averages 6 inches in length, is broad at the neck, 

 narrowing gradually to the round, blunt base, therefore is easily harvested. 

 The flesh, almost free from core, is of rich orange-red and of the finest 

 table quality; fine-grained, tender, juicy and delicately flavored. Chante- 

 nay Carrot is an excellent variety for use either for an early crop or a main 

 crop. In the latitude of New York sow as early as possible for early 

 •carrots, certainly not later than the end of April, so that the roots will 

 mature before July. The roots of course are best when used young. For 

 .a main crop sow Chantenay from June 1st to June 20th. Carrots split 

 .and grow rooty if checked in growth. This may be avoided by watering 

 when dry, and by an occasional application of liquid manure.*; Price, 10c. 

 oz., 25c. U lb., 70c. lb. 



improved LONG ORANGE CARROT. 



An improved strain of this popular variety for either garden or field 

 ■culture, roots averaging 12 inches in length and 3 inches in diameter at the 

 top; an enormous yielder and a good keeper. The strain we offer is the 

 •result of painstaking selection — spread over a period of years — of the most 

 highly colored and the most perfectly shaped roots of the old variety of 

 Long Orange. 



Price, 10c. oz., 30c. }4 lb., 80c. lb. 



The "Henderson" White Spine Cucumber. 



ALMOST PERFECT IN SHAPE— THE LEADING VARIETY FOR THE TRUCKER. 



For many years this has proven to be the most reliable of 

 .all the White Spine types. It is extremely early, and produces 

 .an enormous crop of uniformly large and symmetrical fruits. 

 It runs very close to type, bearing practically no misshapen fruits 

 ■or culls. As one of our customers whose testimonial we print 

 below aptly expresses it "There is not a basket of culls in a 

 •carload of Henderson's White Spine." It is the ideal 

 for slicing, the flesh being compact, fine-grained, spark- 



ling white and of most refreshing and delightful flavor. 

 No variety excels it in vigor of vine; it not only sets, but ma- 

 tures, a heavier crop of perfectly shaped fruits than any other 

 variety. None equals it in color, and none holds the color better. 

 It is grown and shipped in greater quantities than any sort on 

 the market, and always sells at top prices.
