We are confident in stating that this highly 
selected strain cannot he surpassed, either for size 
or flavour ; the roots which attain to a very large size 
being quite as tender and sweet flavoured as most 
varieties which do not reach one-half the size. 
Price 3d. and 6d. per packet ; pd. per ounce. 
“Your seeds turned out .splendidly last year; I had 
wonderful crops, some of the MalUse Parsnips weighed 4 lbs. 
2 ozs. each and were <iuite sweet and succulent, not a liit strong 
in consequence of the size.’* — hirs. Phillips, Rathfarnhani. 
“I am pleased to tell you that I have been very successful 
with your seeds. On Thursday last I took 25 First anrl 12 
Second prizes. 1 think your Maltese Parsnips can’t be matched 
for E.\hibition. I grew them 5 feet long, beautifully clean. 
Your Model Leek is also a splendid one for E.xhibition.”—
