NE'W ROSE. In England, the Pink or Red Celeries 

 are mucli more largely used than the AVhite varieties, and 

 ■we have often wondered why they were not more grown in 

 this country. They possess many advantages over the 

 AVliite, being liardicr, more solid and better keepers. The JS'ew 

 Roseis the best of all the red varieties, conbining all these 

 desirable qualities, and is the most ornamental for the table,

New Early 

 Bonanza. 



This valu- 

 able v a !• i e t y 

 originated a few 

 years since with 

 an enterprising 

 market gar- 

 dener of this 

 city, who aston- 

 ishedhisbrother 

 gardeners by 

 having in mar- 

 iiet^severalu'eeks 

 ahead of any of 

 them, large, fine 

 ears of sweet 

 corn in gieat 

 abundance, and 

 for which he 

 obtained almost 

 fabulous prices, 

 it having be- 

 come quite cele- 

 brated for its 

 fine quality, and 

 was much 

 sought after. It 

 is undoubtedly 

 as early as Min- 

 nesota., Crosby's 

 and other e.xtra 

 early varieties, 

 while the ears 

 are much larger. 

 It is exceedingly 

 prolific, bearing

 habit, ears small, productive and good. Pint, 2Uc.; qt., 35c.;

THE CORY, .\fter care- 

 fully testing this new variety, 

 we were the first to offer it 

 five years since; grown side 

 by side with Marblehead and 

 other early varieties, itieads 

 them all by fullij a week. It 

 will produce good ears for 

 boiling in fifty-two days from 

 plnnlirig. It'jias a larger ker- 

 nel than the Marlileliead and 

 is quite distinct, being whiter 

 in color. Market gardeners 

 and others ■ivho have grown 

 the Cory Corn, have com- 

 pletely controlled the early 

 market. Our stock comes 

 directlv from Mr. Jos. Cory, 

 the originator. Pint, 2.5c.;

EARLY GOLDEN or 

 ORANGE. We introduced 

 tiiisnew and distinct variety

 market size and very sweet.
