This is -nnthout question the handsomest late melon and most luscious of all the green-fleshed sorts. 

 In describing its handsome shape and beautiful netted appearance, we cannot do better than to refer 

 to the photograph above, made from an ordinary specimen taken from our patch. In a test wdth forty 

 other green-fleshed varieties, it surpassed them all ingrowth, thickness of flesh and rich, delicious flavor. 

 It attains a very large size, and its shipping and market qualities are superior to the well-known Mon- 

 treal, Hackensack and other large market melons, while in quality and fine appearance they cannot 

 even compare with the " Superb." All who want the most profitable for late market, or those who want 

 the best for the home garden, need seek no further. Pkt., loc; oz., 40c.; % lb., ^i.oo ; lb., I3.75. 



HENDERSON'S 

 ^ JUCCESSION CflBBflQE ^ 



Attention was first called to this new cab- 

 bage by Mr. Van Siclen, of Long Island, who 

 originated the well-known Early Summer Cab- 

 bage. It was first offered for sale three years 

 since by our friends, Peter Henderson & Co., 

 and has given satisfaction wherever planted. 

 It follows ten daj-s after Early Summer, comes 

 off" with much larger and heavier heads, and is 

 very valuable for mid-summer use. It grows 

 so compactly that notwithstanding its large 

 size, it can readily be planted almost as close 

 as Early Summer. In a large field which we 

 grew for seed this season, even,- plant formed 

 large head of as perfect and uniform shape as
