Vegetable Orange 
This is a splendid novelty of recent introduction, 
handsome in color and appearance and an enorm¬ 
ous yielder. As shown, vines of this Vegetable 
Orange are smaller than a Musk Melon vine, but 
they require about the same cultivation. It is a 
wonderful yielder, producing fruit about the size 
of an Orange of a bright yellow color, somewhat 
russeted. In the west where fruit is scarce, this 
Orange is rapidly becoming popular. For sweet 
pickles, pies or preserves they are splendid and 
can be used in many ways. Pkt., 4 <‘.,8 pkts.,

BOOK OF VEGETABLE A^l> FLOWER SEEDS 
This Giant Radish grows to enormous dimensions. The il¬ 
lustration was made from a photograph of a specimen meas¬ 
uring <13 inches in circumference and 21 inches in length. The 
skin is pure white, flesh firm and solid, mild as an apple and 
superior to the most delicate spring radishes, thrives in any 
soil or location. It is good to eat when in bloom as in younger 
days, and the taste is more delicate than our American varieties, 
alwrys crisp and tender, at the same time one of the greatest 
curiosities ever grown in the garden. Think of it; this enor¬ 
mous radish, on account of its mildness and excellent flavor, can 
be sliced and eaten like an apple. 
If you intend to grow any new varieties of vegetables this year 
in your garden, do not fail to plant this radish. You will readi¬ 
ly realize that it is an enormous variety the minute you see the 
seed on account of its large size. We arc sure this radish will 
be a perfect wonder to all your neighbors.

NORTHERN EEiViOIN 
This is a 
great vege¬ 
table novelty 
and certainly 
deserves a 
place in the 
gard e n. It 
somewhat re¬ 
sembles the 
Vegetable 
Orange in 
manner of 
growth, but 
is distinct, as 
the unripe 
fruit is 
striped with 
very dark 
green stripes, 
and when ripe 
is not so yel¬ 
low as the 
Vegetable Orange. The fruit is the shape as shown in the illustration, but a little larger 
than the Vegetable Orange. It has fine flesh and is of good flavor and unexcelled for gen¬ 
eral canning purposes. It should be cultivated the same as Musk Melons and it is such an 
enormous yielder that it will prove a very profitable crop to grow for market purposes, and 
it is sure to give great satisfaction for family use. Grow this unique novelty. Pkt., 5c., 
3 pkts., 12c., 6 pkts., 20c., oz. 25c. 
GROUND AEMOINDS 
We take pleasure in offering our cus¬ 
tomers a very choice nut called Ground 
Almond. The flavor resembles the 
Almond and those who have tested it 
prefer it to the genuine Almond. The 
meat is snow white covered with a thin 
shell or skin of brown color which is 
easily removed. It is very easy to grow 
and a single nut will yield from 200 to 300 
nuts in a hill. The illustration gives 
a good idea of a hill growing which 
shows that the nuts are produced close 
to the surface and the foliage is of a 
handsome green color resembling wide 
blades of grass. It is a very prolific grow¬ 
er and will do well in any kind of soil. 
The nuts should be planted in the spring 
about the same time corn or potatoes are 
planted, and by fall the nuts will be ma¬ 
tured, ready to harvest. They are then 
dug from the ground, spread out to dry 
and afterwards put away for use at any 
time. 
We consider these G ROUND AL3ION DS one of the very best things we offer in this 
catalogue and know that they will be appreciated by our customers. They grow so rapidly 
and make such an immense and interesting crop that you will be surprised as well as your 
neighbors when you tell them what you are growing.

CHINESE 
LANTERN PLANT 
When treated like a tomato it grows 
and fruits freely from seed the first 
season. Produces numerous large 
unfolded husks, the shape of Chinese 
lanterns, at first a beautiful green 
color changing to yellow hue, then to 
bright scarlet. For pies, or dried in 
sugar for fruit cakes or puddings, it 
is most delicious. It is a Japanese 
production easily grown in any gar¬ 
den. Pkt. 5c., 3 pkts. 10c., post-
