DWAEF MONT D'OE WAX BEAN. 
A new bush, wax bean. The vines are stout, healthy, and 
productive. Mr. Gregory says of it: " Without exception one 
of the most vigorous and productive of all the Dwarf Wax 
Beans ; a decided acquisition. The market-men's most profitable 
bean of the Dwarf Wax class." Less liable to rust than other 
wax beans. Large 
packet, 10 cts. ; quart, 
50 cents. 
ECLIPSE BEET. 
This new Beet is 
fast taking the lead as 
the first early market 
Beet. It is a bright 
blood turnip, as early 
as the Egyptian, bet- 
ter shape, larger and 
smoother. Top is 
rather small, root ten- 
der and sweet. One 
of the best beets for 
market gardeners. 
Per packet, 5 cents; 
oz.,' 10 cents; lb., 80 
cents. 
CHILD'S CELESTIAL PEPPER. 
A new pepper of great beauty found in China about four 
years ago. The peppers are in shape of a cone, about two inches 
long, thickly set on the plants. In the early period of their growth 
they are a creamy white, but as they ripen change to a bright 
red, making one of the most beautiful and ornamental plants. 
Last season I transferred some of the plants to pots, and they 
were much admired as ornamental house plants. Per packet, 15 
cents. 
SIBLEY SQUASH. 
This squash is a novelty 
among squashes. Its shape is 
unique, the stem end being the 
largest. The size and color of 
the seeds mark it as an original 
and new production. It is 
claimed for it that it is superior 
to the Hubbard, the standard 
of all good squashes. It is pale 
green in color, the flesh is a 
bright orange ; when cooked 
dry and fine grained, possess- 
ing a delicate flavor. Its keep- 
ing qualities are said to be bet- 
ter than most winter squashes. 
We have found it excellent for 
pies. All lovers of good 
squashes should give it a trial. 
Per packet, 10 cents ; oz , 20 
cents ; lb., $1.60.
