Mustard. 
Culture — Sow in any good garden soil early as soil can 
be worked in spring in drills 16 inches apart. Give clean 
culture and keep free from weeds and grass. Leaves 
large enough to cut for salad will be ready in 6 weeks 
from sowing. Sow from September to December for win- 
ter use. 
Chinese Mustard — This variety from China, which we 
have sold for several years, is superior to the Southern 
Curled in size, quality and flavor. Immensely produc- 
tive, the leaves being twice the size of other varieties and 
remain tender and flt for use a long time. Packet, 5 cents; 
ounce, 10 cents ; pound, 25 cents ; pound, 90 cents. 
Giant Southern Curled — Old well known standard variety 
for this section. Our strain of this is very curly, being 
the same as sold by many as the “Ostrich Plume,” much 
superior to the old strains usually sold. Packet, 5 cents; 
ounce, 10 cents ; pound, 20 cents ; pound, 70 cents. 
White Mustard— Ounce, 5 cents ; 34 pound, 10 cents ; pound* 
35 cents. 
Georgia Grown Okra >Seed. 
Years of actual experience have shown us that there is one sec- 
tion of Georgia that is especially adapted to the production of the 
best okra seed in the world. Plants from this seed are exceedingly 
vigorous, prolific and the product is all that can be desired. All of 
our okra seed is grown in that section. 
Culture— Ground should be plowed or spaded deep for okra to 
get the best results, and should be either rich naturally or fertilized 
heavily. Make your rows 2 feet apart, sowing seed thinly in the 
drill, thinning out after plants are well up to 1 foot apart. Okra is 
very tender and will not stand frost, neither will the seed germi- 
nate in cold ground, so that planting should be delayed until the 
ground gets warm. As fast as pods develop they should be pulled 
off for letting them get hard affects the vigor and bearing qualities 
of the plant. 
White Velvet Okra— A standard variety around Atlanta for home use 
or market. We have a splendid early strain of this variety with me- 
dium size, smooth round pods, free from ridges and not prickly to 
the touch. Our strain of this we find to be the best of all white va- 
rieties. Packet, 5 cents ; ounce, 10 cents ; 34 pound, 20 cents ; pound, 
50 cents. 
Perkins Long Podded — A distinct variety which is in our opinion 
much superior to the white varieties. Its productiveness is won- 
derful, the long, slender green pods beginning to shoot out from the 
stalk within 3 inches of the ground and the whole plant is literally 
covered with them, up to the height of a man’s head. Pods are in- White Velvet, 
tense green in color, extra long, very. slim and do not get hard quickly as do other varieties. Packet, 5 cents; 
ounce, 10 cents ; 34 pound, 20 cents; pound, 50 cents.

Don’t Be Fooled In Buying Onion Sets, 
In selling onion sets we always measure them in 
standard measures. It is a fact that almost every 
dealer in this section is selling the infamous, fraudu- 
lent, dishonest “32-pound bushel.” A bushel of onion 
sets varies largely in weight. It is often the case that 
32 pounds of onion sets measures a quart over Specks. 
When one-fourth of the quantity is cut off it’s easy to 
make a cut price. We sell onion sets by honest and 
full measure. When you get a peck or bushel of sets 
from us you know just what you have got. It’s just 
the quantity you bought. We make our prices based 
on full and honest measure of sets. If offered a lower 
price than ours we advise finding out what kind of 
measure you are getting before buying.
