"Womax's Greatest Boon - - — Wc would advise a man to 
forego a Thresher and thresh wheat with a flail, rather 
than to see the wife wear her health, vigor and life away in 
the everlasting 'stitch, stitch, stitch,' when a Sewing Ma- 
chine can be obtained. The WHEELER & WILSON is an 
Invaluable aid in every household. Wc have had several 
different kinds on trial, and after a six year's service, the 
WHEELER& WILSON has taken the precedence as the best, 
Where all kinds of sewing are to be done in a family."

To My Patrons : 
It 13 due to myself that I should explain the reasons for 
non-appearance of ray spring advertisements. My supnlv 
of plants, extensive as it was, was almost exhausted by tail 
sales, I expect to offer a very lanie and superior lot of 
plants to the public next fall. Shall issue 10.000 of a new edi- 
tion of my Manual next summer. Also expect to be able 
to offer a fine stock of a new Grape of large size, fine flavor, 
and perfectly hardy vine.
