1873 .] 
AMERICAN AGRICULTURIST. 
Ill 
I was the first to introduce to the public the Hub¬ 
bard Squash, American Turban Squash, Marblehead 
Mammoth Cabbage, Mexican Sweet Corn, Phinney’s Water¬ 
melon, and many other 
New and Valuable Vegetables. 
This season I have a new and exceedingly valuable 
squash, new varieties of corn, three fine melons, and other 
choice new vegetables lor my customers. 
My business is to supply, what every good farmer is anx¬ 
ious to get. the very best of vegetable seed. I grow a hun¬ 
dred and fifty kinds on my four seed-farms, right under my 
own eye, making new vegetables a specialty, besides im¬ 
porting their choicest varieties from European growers. A 
fine selection of flower seed, home-grown and imported, 
will also be found in my Catalogue, which will be sent free 
to all applicants. 
As stated in my Catalogue, all my seed is sold under three 
warrants—1st: That all money sent shall reach me. 2d: 
That all seed ordered shall reach the purchaser. 3d: That 
mu seeds shall be fresh, and true to name.
