MARROW PARSNIP. 
A SWEET DELICATE- FLESHED VARIETY. 
Carters Hoi born Marrow (see Photo- 
graph).- — A truly refined Parsnip. When lifted 
it leaves the ground clean, smooth, and well 
shaped. It is not so large in growth as our 
Maltese , but its flavour is unusually marrow- 
like and delicate. Our picture very inadequately 
depicts its merits. 
Price 3d. & 6d. per packet and is. per ounce. 
THE ROYAL HORTICULTURAL SOCIETY, report- 
ing its trials at the Experimental Grounds, says 
“Roots thick, handsome, and not too large, but 
just the size and shape a Parsnip should be.” 
“The Holbotn Marrow Parsnip is the most delicious 
I ever tasted, and it deserves all you say about it.” — 
J. Freeman, Esq., Chard, February 26/ 1907. 
“ Please Send me your Guinea Collection of Vege- 
table Seeds, same as last year, which were very

was very pleased with the result ot last year’s 
box.” — E. P. Collett, Esq., Hale, January nth, 1907. 
“ Last year I took First Prize for a collection of 
Vegetables ; Second, Carrots ; Third, Turnips ; First

Scarlet Runner Beans.”— Mr. F. Dakin, Sutton Bridge,

By Appointment. 
Messrs. James Carter & Co. have much pleasure in 
announcing that they have had the honour of receiving the 
Royal Warrant of Appointment to 
HIS MAJESTY THE KING OF SIAM. 
They feel sure that their patrons will feel pleased to know that 
their seeds have done so well in His Siamese Majesty’s gardens. 
As is their custom when despatching seeds through the 
tropics, great care was taken in exhausting the dampness not only 
from the seeds themselves, but also from the packing paper 
before being finally placed in hermetically sealed tins. 
By this special patent process of their own the heat and 
moisture of the tropics is negatived, and the germ lies dormant 
until the tin is unpacked and the seed sown.
