Choice collections of Dutch Bulbous Roots, Plants, Seeds, 
and Small Fruits, for fall planting. Our Autumn Cata¬ 
logue of the above, with beautifully Colored Plate, and 
many illustrations, is now ready for distribution, and will 
be mailed to all applicants enclosing G cents. 
A New Winter Wheat.—Winter Pearl. 
ThiB new and promising variety is the result of an ex¬ 
periment made by F. H. Horsford, of Charlotte, Vermont, 
1878, and is a cross between these two well-known wheats, 
the Diehl and Clawson. The heads are beardless, regular, 
and very handsome, five and a half Inches long, with 
eighteen to twenty breasts, of four grains each. Kernels 
about the size of the Clawson, hard, plump, and of a light 
amber color. Straw, from three to five feet high, bright 
yellow, strong and elastic; tillers freely, forty heads hav¬ 
ing been counted from one kernel. It matures with Claw- 
sou, and has produced the past season (1888) in Northern 
Vermont at the rate of forty-five bushels per acre from one 
bushel of seed, and would doubtless have been even more 
productive in a better wheat country. Price by mail, trial 
packets (conta’ning 2 ozs.), 25 cents each ; per pound, $1.00. 
New Winter Rye.—Thousand Fold. 
In hardiness and yield it is not excelled by any other 
variety, having wintered splendidly in most severe seasons, 
producing from thirty to fifty bushels per acre, according 
to the character of the soil and seasons. On account of its 
luxuriant growth and profuse tillering, a quarter to a third 
less seed should be sown per acre than is used of less vigor¬ 
ous growing kinds. Price, one pound, 50 cents ; three 
pounds, $1.00,—by mail, post-paid; per peck, $1.75; half 
bushel, $2.50; bushel, $5.00—bags included.
