CARTERS MALTESE PARSNIP. 
A SUPERB GIANT PARSNIP FOR EXHIBITION OR TABLE 
USE. 
Carters Maltese (see Photograph). — We 
HOLD records OF 316 FiRST PRIZES HAVING 
BEEN TAKEN DURING THE PAST FEW SEASONS. 
We are confident in stating that this highly 
selected strain cannot be surpassed, either for size 
or flavour; the roots, which attain to a very largo 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 ; gd. per ounce. 
“Yi,iir seeds turned out splendidly last year; I had 
wonderful croixs, some of the Maltese Parsnips weighed 4 lbs. 
2 ors. each and were quite sweet and succulent, not a bit strong 
in consequence of the size.’’ — Mrs. Phii.I-IPS, Ralhfarnham. 
“ I am pleased to tell you that I have been very successful 
with your seeds. On Thursday last I took 25 hirst and 12 
Second prizes. I think your Maltese Parsnips can’t be matched 
for Exhibition. I grew them 5 feet long, beautifully clean. 
Your AMel Leek is also a splendid one for Exhibition.
