Heuu Ulhite Top Onion. 



Two years ago we introduced the White Multiplier Onion, and it gave 

 great satisfaction in many sections where a hardy, rapid-growing onion 

 Tvas desired. In the NEW WHITE TOP ONION we have a variety 

 that produces onions of much larger size and iiner quality. Our stock 

 this season is extremely limited, so we can offer it only in small quanti- 

 ties. {See cut.) 60 cts. i^ pint, $1.00 per pint. 



HRPUD FOf^CIflG t^flDlSH. 



This grand variety resembles the "White Tipped Scarlet 

 Turnip Kadish, but is much earlier, coming to maturity in 

 22 days from the time of sowing and having very small tops, 

 and will prove to be the Eadish for forcing purposes. Being 

 very handsome and of fine quality, it is equally desirable for 

 the garden. Price, 10 cts. per pkt., 20 cts. peroz., 60 cts. 

 per 1^ lb., $2.00 per lb. 



new radish, 

 Brightest ^^arlet. 



Radishes are probably more largely used in France than in 

 any other country, and the long varieties have always been 

 more popular there than any others. " Brightest Scarlet " 

 is a new French variety that all should trj'. It is entirely 

 distinct, being a vivid scarlet color tipped with snow-white. 

 The skin is vei-y thin, and the flesh crisp and brittle and of a 

 delightful pungent quality. The cut shows its shape, but a 

 colored engraving is really necessary to give any idea of its 

 striking appearance. A dish of them will enhance the beautj- 

 of any table. (See cut. 15 cts. per pkt., 40 cts. per oz., $1.00 

 per 14 lb. 



THE JONES WATERMELON. 



We are indebted to Mr. riiilip S. Jones, of Georgia, for 

 this splendid melon. Tiie color of the skin Is solid green, 

 and the llesh is a veiy bright red, particularly sweet, juicy 

 and melting It grows to a large size, frequently attain- 

 ing the weight of eigiity pounds. In shape it resembles 

 Kolb's Gem and liico that variety Is one of the best ship- 

 ping sorts. A car-load of these melons which was sent to 

 Atlanta this past summer attracted a great deal of atten- 

 tion, bringing forth a long article from the Atlanta Consti- 

 tution, stating they were the finest melons ever seen in 

 Atlanta; and when it is considered that Georgia is called 

 the " home of tlic watermelon," the foi-ce of this statement 

 will lie apparent to all. {See cut.) 15 ets. per pkt., 8 pkts. 

 for $1.00.
