the latter form they attain a large size, often to 2 inches deep, ripening to the apex. The skin

admitted on all sides to be the best introduction since Sir ,T. Paxton, and should be extensively 
planted in everv garden, totally setting aside many of the older kinds, which we have discontinued 
growing. Small runners, 3*. per 100. Fine selected runners, 4s. per 100; 20*. per l,o00. Fine
