NOVELTIES AND SPECIALTIES. D. M. FERRY & CO., DETROIT, MICH. 
Cabbage—Copenhagen 
Market 
This is undoubtedly the most 
valuable cabbage of recent introduc¬ 
tion. Our strain produces the charac¬ 
teristic large round heads that for 
their solidity and excellent quality 
make this variety so valuable for 
first early crop. (See cut and further 
description , page 2;) Pkt. 5c; Oz. 45c;

Celery—Columbia 
This is the best celery for the 
private garden. It is also excellent 
for the home market and is shipped 
extensively. Columbia matures early. 
It has no superior in beauty of golden 
shading, solidity and size of stalk. 
In rich nutty flavor we have found it 
unsurpassed. Try it and be convinced.

Cucumber—Improved Long 
Green 
The Long Green is probably the best known and most extensively cultivated of all cucumbers. We 
have therefore given our stocks of Improved Long Green especial attention for many years, and are confi¬ 
dent the stock we offer under this name is in a class by itself. The fruits are very long, often twelve to fifteen 
inches, uniformly slender and beautiful dark green. The large warts and spines are well distributed over 
the surface. We believe the stock we offer has no equal. (See cut and further description , page jj) Pkt Sc-

Muskmelon—Admiral Togo 
This small orange fleshed variety is an ideal melon for the table. It stands shipment as well as any of 
the green fleshed sorts and has proven distinctly superior in quality. The fruits are exactly similar in size and 
shape to the green fleshed Netted Gem or Rocky Ford and will pack equally welLin the standard crate. Our 
stock is carefully bred in size and shape. It is densely netted. The flesh is very thick. We recommend 
' Admiral Togo to the most discriminating buyers. (See cut and further description, page 39) Pkt. 5c; Oz 15c- 
2 Oz. 25c; Va Lb. 40c; Lb. $1.25 
Muskmelon—Osage or Miller’s Cream 
Our strain of Osage is now so carefully developed that we believe it to be unequaled for very small seed 
cavity and the size and flavor of its richly colored fruits. They are of the medium to large size so desirable 
for later markets as well as the home garden. We are confident the seed we offer will please the most critical 
trade. ( See cut on this page and further description, page 39) Pkt. 5c; Oz. 15c; 2 Oz. 25c; Va Lb. 40 c; Lb. $ 1.25 
Watermelon—Tom Watson 
Unquestionably the most popular shipping melon. The fruits are large and long. The rind is tough. 
The flesh is rich red, sweet and tender. In many large markets the Tom Watson is without a rival. It sup¬ 
plies the demand completely for a melon of superior quality that will also ship well. (See cut on this page
