I have founded 
my business on 
the belief that 
the public are anxious to get their seed directly from the 
grower. Raising a large proportion of my seed enables 
me to warrant its freshness and purity, as see my Vege¬ 
table and Flower Seed Catalogue for 1888, FREE 
for every son and daughter of Adam. It is 
iliberally Illustrated with engravings made directly 
from photographs of vegetables grown on my seed 
farms. Besides an immense variety of standard seed, you 
will find in it some valuable new vegetables not found in 
any other catalogue. As the original introducer of the 
Eclipse Beet, Burbank and Early Ohio Potatoes, Hubbard 
Squash, Deephead Cabbage, Cory Corn, and a score of other 
valuable vegetables, I Invite the patronage of the public.

THE WATERS’ POWER BUTTER WORKER. 
The tray of the Waters’ Power 
Putter Worker, like the tray of 
the Waters Hand Worker', moves 
hack and forth under the roller. 
When the end of the tray reaches 
the roller, the motion of the roll¬ 
er and tray Is reversed by an au¬ 
tomatic lever. The operator is 
thus free to turn, salt and care 
for the butter while It Is being 
worked. If desired, the motion 
of tray and roller may be revers¬ 
ed by hand at any point from 
either side and the tray made to 
traverse an Interval varying from 
two Inches to Its entire length.
