SPECIAL LIST OF VEGETABLE SEEDS. 
MELON. MONTREAL GREEN NUTMEG. 
This is the largest Melon of its class in cultivation ; has been a favorite variety with 
the Market Gardeners of Montreal for many years, but, having heretofore refdsed to sell 
the seed, it has not become generally known. The fruit is nearly round, flattened at the 
ends, deeply and regularly ribbed; skin green, roughly netted; flesh remarkably thick 
with tlnn rind, light green, melting, and of delicious flavor. They are very regular in 
shape, and uniformly grow to a very large size, specimens weighing from twelve to 
twenty-five pounds each, and have been known to weigh over thirty pounds. 
Per Packet, 15 cts. | Per Ounce, 40 ets. | Per Pound, $4.00. 
ONION. DANVERS THICK YELLOW. 
Also known as “ Round,” 
“Globe,” “Pedigree,” in 
some localities. This fine 
Onion has been for many 
years the favorite, and is 
now almost the only sort 
grown for the Boston mar- 
ket. The true Buxton type 
is large in size, an early 
and abundant cropper, very 
thick bulb , flat or slightly 
convex bottom, full, oval 
top, with small neck, and 
rich, brownish-yellow skin. 
Seed from this type is more 
sure to bottom well than 
when grown from Onions 
having too much depth of 
bulb, or globe-shaped. These 
— — =-= — tend to stray into thick- 
necks, or scullions. We ask attention to the seed we offer, which was grown from as fine 
and perfect a selection of the variety as we ever saw, and we unhesitatingly recommend it as 
supenor in quality and occupying no second place to any of the variety to be obtained any- 
where.

PEPPER. GIANT EMPEROR. 
This fine, new Pepper is quite distinct from all others. The fruits are well-shaped, and 
grow larger than any other sort, single specimens measuring six inches long, and two to three 
inches in diameter at the stem end. The flesh is very thick, sweet, and fine flavored. A 
very superior variety for stuffing as mangoes. 
Per Packet, 15 cents. | Per Ounce, 60 cents 
PEPPER. GOLDEN DAWN. 
This resembles in shape the Bell Pepper. The color is a beautiful golden yellow, which, 
contrasting with the green foliage, gives the plants a very handsome appearance It is very 
sweet; even the seeds and pulp may be handled or eaten without detecting the least fiery 
flavor. An abundant bearer, and the fruits are superior for stuffing as mangoes. 
Per Packet, 15 cents.
