FAUST'S4- 

 Earliest of all Gabbagc 



This wonderfully handsome and valuable 

 variety is the outcome of years of careful 

 growing and selection and is unquestionably 

 the earliest, best quality, most uniform in 

 color, size and shape of any variety yet intro- 

 duced. The heads are of conical shape (as 

 shown in the illustration), very large and 

 solid, and of meat perfect form. It has but 

 few outer leaves, thus enabling closer planting 

 and a larger crop. It will njature fine heads 

 in 40 days from the time plants are set out in 

 the open ground. In this Cabbage you have 

 the EARLIEST, FI]VEST Q,U ALIT Y, BEST 

 YIELDER and the SUREST and MOST 

 PROFITABLE VARIETY to grow. The 

 seed has all been grown from the most care- 

 fully selected heads, and we guarantee will 

 produce the finest cabbage. We have received 

 testimonials from all portions of the United 

 States in praise of this fine Cabbage, and so 

 popular has it become and can be relied upon, 

 that nearly every order for seeds received by

 pound. Pkt. 10c. , oz. 30c., lb. $1.00, lb, $3.50.

NEW SWEET CORN— FIRST OF ALL. 



The assertion that we have found a sweet com earlier than the Cory, which has for so many years held first place, will make all our 

 •customers desirous of trying the FIRST OF ALL Sweet Corn. For years we have been trying all new varieties in the hope that we 

 would get a variety of Sweet Com even earlier than the famous Cory Corn, and at last the desired prize has been obtamed. Ihe FIRST 

 OP ALL is ready for the table from three days to a week earlier than the Cory, making it very desirable, not only for family gar- 

 dens but extremely valuable to grow lor market, where the earliest com always brings by far the highest prices. The ears, which ate of 

 medium size, are well filled with large grains to the very tip. A large number of the ears contain 10 to 12 rows, while ears of the Cory 

 Com generally have only 8 rows. In habit of growth it is rather dwarfer than the Cory , although similar m appearance, but superior in 

 ■quality, tender and sweet. Pkt., loc; pint, 20c.; quart, 35c., postpaid. By express or fi-eight, quart, 25c.; peck, gi.oo; bushel, $3.50. 



This new, medium early wrinkled pea grows feet 

 high, is of robust growth, and produces abundantly long, 

 pointed, well-filled pods which contain eight to nine large 

 peas of exquisite flavor. It is one of the very best peas for 

 the home garden. Pkt., 10 cts. ; pint, 20 cts. , quart, 40cts., 

 postpaid. By express or freight, quart, 25 cts. ; peck, $1 00 ; 

 bushel, $3.75. 



Perkins' Mammoth Long Podded Okra* 



The pods are an intense green color, about 8 inches long, 

 and do not get hard as with other sorts. Its productiveness 

 is simply wondTful, the pods shooting out from the bottom 

 of the stalk within 3 inches of the ground, and the whole 

 'plant is covered with them to the height of a man's head. 

 Mr. Perkins always obtained S3.00 to $4.00 per basket for his 

 Okras in Philadelphia markets ; also much sought after by 

 'canners, being the best of all ereen sorts for winter use. 

 JPkl., 5 cts. • oz., 20 cts. ; K lb., 25 cts. ; lb., 90 cts., postpaid.
