Beets 



Over in France, the famous house of Vilmorin produces 

 the choicest strains of Beets under most interesting ex- 

 pert care. The tent village alongside illustrates the 

 method they employ to keep the strains straight. Each 

 of these tents shelters a mother plant against undue dis- 

 turbances by wind, weather, or insects. From these 

 priceless seeds are produced the bulbs, the seeds of which 

 produce the seeds we oiTer you. In thus securing for our 

 customers the choicest type of Beets in the difYerent 

 classes, we but live up to tlie principles of the founder of 

 this business, to make quality our main consideration 

 in doing business. Considering all the care exercised, 

 you will find our prices quite reasonable. Qz. '4

Brussels Sprouts 



Cabbage 



The foremost growers of America and Europe combine efforts to furnish us with strains 



that will measure up to the expectation of the most 

 critical market-gardener. Out on Long Island lives a 

 man who has almost succeeded in making the Cabbage 

 a thoroughbred. He is the man from whom we get part 

 of ourstocks. Over in Denmark, the — nth generation of 

 Cabbage-growers is exercising the same skill and bringing 

 to bear the cumulative experiences of their forefathers 

 in the endeavor to send America the best strains of 

 European Cabbages procurable. They are yours to com. 

 mand here at reasonable prices.
