NEW LARGE HEADING ECLIPSE CABBAGE. 



It is a well known fact that there are but very few- 

 cabbages that can always be depended upon to pro- 

 duce large, Hue solid heads in the South, owing to the 

 hot sun and climate. I must say, however, that my 

 cabbage seed has always given unusual satisfaction to 

 my Southern friends. For many years Marblehead 

 Mammoth has been largely planted by those desiring 

 hot weather cabbage. Eclipse, while it will not grow 

 as large as Marblehead Mammoth, will produce a 

 larger percentage of line, large heads in a hot, dry cli- 

 mate, and I especially recommend this variety to all 

 desiring a cabbage of this character. The illustration 

 is taken from a photograph, and well illustrates an 

 average head. Packet, 10 cents; ounce, 30 cents; 

 % pound, $1.00; pound, §3.00. 



NEW WHITE EGG PLANT. 



I consider this one of the grandest acquisitions to 

 our list of Egg Plants introduced for many years and 

 might well be called a White New York Improved 

 Purple, resembling this variety in shape, while in color 

 when ripe is a rich creamy white and its table qualities 

 unexcelled. Sure to be in demand and command 

 highest prices when it becomes more generally known. 

 Pkt., 15 cents ; 2 pkts., 25 cents ; oz., 50 cts ; % lb., 81.50. 



EARLY ANGIERS BROCCOLI. 



After people are acquainted with this most delicious 

 vegetable, which is hardier and far more easily grown 

 than Cauliflower, it will be more largely grown than it 

 is. Last year when visiting France, I happened to run 

 across this improved strain of Broccoli in Angiers, 

 where it has been grown for the last few years by a few 



Erivate gardeners, with wonderful results. It produces 

 eads fully as large as ordinary Cauliflower, and while 

 equally as delicate is extremely hardy; and can really 

 be as readily raised and headed up as Cabbage. Every 

 one of my customers who have heretofore had trouble 

 in raising Cauliflower, should try this early Angiers 

 Broccoli this season. Heads are always large and hard. 

 Packet, 15 cents ; 2 packets, 25 cents ; ounce, 81.00. 



LOBBERICH'S AGRICULTURAL CARROT. 



One of the most highly esteemed of the French 

 seedsmen recommended this Carrot to my attention, 

 with the remark that it should certainly be intro- 

 duced in America. Many of our best carrots came ori- 

 ginally from France; and this variety was so highly re- 

 commended that I at once embraced the opportunity 

 to present it to my customers, although I have only 

 been able to secure a limited quantity of the seed. 

 Lobberich's Carrot is the result of 25 years improve- 

 ment by a celebrated French grower, who now con- 

 siders he has produced the most valuable variety for 

 feeding stock. Of a rich orange color; grows to a 

 very large size, and while unusually long is stump 

 rooted. It is claimed for this new carrot that it will 

 yield 50 percent, more than any variety now culti- 

 vated. Pkt,, 10 cts.; oz., 20 cts.; ( 4 lb., .50 cts.; lb., 81.50.

NEW NOCERA CARROT. 



This table carrot is grown very largely Id 

 the neighborhood of Naples, Italy, where it is 

 largely esteemed on account of its very sweet 

 flavor and desirable size. Illustration herewith 

 is an excellent representation of this variety, 

 which, while of medium size, is thick but not 

 stump rooted. I can safely recommend it to the 

 consideration of all my friends. Packet, 10 cts.; 

 ounce, 20 cts.; ]4 pound, 50 cts.; pound, $1.50.

In ot her words, from Oct. 1st, 1890, to Oct. 1st, 

 1891, I have paid Uncle Sam

 another seed company in America that can

SWISS CHARD, SILVER OR SEA- 

 KALE BEET. 



This variety is grown for its leaves only: 

 the middle of the leaf is cooked and served like 

 Asparagus ; the other portions of the leaf are 

 used like Spinach. Packet, 5 cents; ounce, 10 

 cents ; ]4 pound, 20 cents ; pound, 55 cents. 



NEW CARDINAL BEET. 



This is a variety I picked up in England last summer; it is especially attractive, and 

 think it will give my customers excellent satisfaction. It is not only cardinal as to color of 

 flesh, but also as to foliage. Shape is well shown in illustration, which is taken from a 

 photograph. Flesh is dark red, of tender and delicate flavor, and while it is not especially 

 early, still it matures about a week or ten days later than Early Blood Turnip. Of medium 

 size. I can highly recommend it to all my friends desiring a fine dark foliaged variety, with 

 rich dark red flesh. Packet, 10 cents ; ounce, 25 cents ; \4 pound, 50 cents ; pound, 81.50. 



MAULE'S IMPROVED LONG RED BEET. 



The best strain of long dark red beet in the market, and especially desirable for winter or 

 fall use. Excellent as a feed for cattle, as 12 tons have been grown per acre. Shape shown 

 in cut. Sweet, tender, rich carmine. No garden should be without at least a few beets of this 

 variety. Once sown you will always want them. Pkt., 10 cts.; oz., 15 cts.; J^lb., 30 cts.; lb., 90 cts.
