VEGETABLE SPECIALTIES 
AND NEW VARIETIES 
We offer on the following pages a very carefully selected list of new varieties. They are in some cases 
perfections of existing strains and in others entirely new departures in vegetable breeding. In all cases 
they are deserving of your attention. All of them have been thoroughly tried and proven before we felt 
them worthy of being offered to you. 
We are sure that once you have tried them they will have a permanent place on your vegetable list. 
Everything we offer in this catalog has passed a rigid inspection for general desirability before we 
were willing to allow it space. Many people ask us which is the best variety to plant. Our only answer 
can be “Read the descriptions.” You must see for yourself which one has the qualities you desire; size, 
shape, color, or period of maturity. That’s why our descriptions are carefully written and the varieties 
accuratelyjdescribed with a minimum of flowery and evasive language. 
May we call your attention to these fine new sorts?
