POLE OR RUNNING 
Although Pole Beans require considerable care 
and labor, they are, when properly grown, usually 
of longer bearing period than the dwarf sorts and 
are generally more productive. 
Special Worcester Pole (Mammoth Cranberry). 
We have an exceptionally choice, large-seeded, 
large-podded, high-colored stock of these Beans. 
They are the true old-fashioned type, hard to be 
found. }/2 lb. 20c., lb. 40c., 2 lbs. 75c. 
Kentucky Wonder. Also known as Old Home¬ 
stead. We believe this variety is the most prac¬ 
tically useful of the green-podded Pole Beans 
suitable for use as snaps. It is an early, very pro¬ 
lific sort, with showy pods which are of most 
excellent quality. The vines are vigorous, climb¬ 
ing well and very productive, bearing pods in 
large clusters. The pods are medium light green, 
very long, often reaching 9 or 10 in., curved and 
twisted, nearly round and very crisp when young, 
becoming very irregular and spongy as the Beans 
ripen. Seed long, oval, slightly flattened, dun 
colored. One of the very best early Pole Snap 
Beans for the home garden or market. The 
quality of our stock is unsurpassed. Yi lb. 20c., 
lb. 40c., 2 lbs. 75c. 
Scarlet Runner. Used mostly as an ornamental 
vine. Producing scarlet flowers, pods are large.

meaty yellow pods. Lb. 40c., 2 lbs. 75c. 
BROCCOLI OR ITALIAN 
CAULIFLOWER 
1 ounce will sow a bed 40 feet square and produce 
about 2000 plants 
The cultivation of Broccoli is the same as for 
Cauliflower, which it very much resembles. We 
wish to emphasize our superior strain of Italian 
Broccoli. It costs more than some stocks but it has 
proven to be the best strain of any Broccoli on the 
market. 
Special Italian. Heads compact of a good size, 
and most certain to head. Pkt. 20c., oz. SI.50, 
Y lb. S5.00. 
BEET 
Pkt. 10c., oz. 15c., Y lb. 40c., lb. $1.25. 
Woodruff’s Early Wonder. This is an early Beet 
with a dark smooth skin, small tap root, medium 
sized top and exceptionally dark red color. It 
matures very evenly. This variety is a very shy 
seed yielder which makes it cost a little more 
than other varieties. The seed itself is smaller 
and therefore a pound goes further. 
Crimson Globe. Second early sort, which does not 
grow particularly large, but is very fine grained; 
both skin and flesh are dark red, while the tops 
are quite small. 
BEETS —Continued 
Crosby’s Egyptian. Extremely early, and one of 
the best sorts for garden use; larger than the old 
type Egyptian, but with the same rich red color. 
Detroit Dark Red. A Turnip-shaped Beet with 
blood red skin and flesh. The tops are compact 
and upright, thus permitting of closer planting 
than most other sorts. 
Extra Early Dark Red Egyptian. Early, small 
top, flat, dark flesh. 
Edmund’s Blood Turnip. Summer cropper for 
Winter use. Dark red flesh, large top.

rib of the leaf is cooked and served like Asparagus 
and the leaves like Spinach. 
CABBAGE 
Oz. 30c., Y lb. $1.00 
Golden Acre. This is a very fine early variety with 
well-formed, round heads similar to Copenhagen 
Market and earlier than Jersey Wakefield. The 
heads are very firm, bright green in color and 
have the appearance of being all cast in the same 
mold. 
Copenhagen Market (Very Special Stock). Small 
bottom leaf with a short stem and very early, 
perfectly round heads. 
Early Jersey Wakefield. Early pointed head. 
Early Winnigstadt. One of the old standbys, 
producing a medium size, long-pointed or cone- 
shaped very solid head which is closely wrapped 
with dark, slate-colored leaves. A favorite with 
old gardeners as it is one of the very best second 
early sorts. 
Succession. A fine general purpose Cabbage. 
Large heads, fine quality for Fall or Winter. 
Danish Ballhead or Hollander. The best Winter 
keeper. Solid heavy head. 
Premium Late Flat Dutch. One of the old large 
round sorts. Good keeper.

Cabbage.

closely wrapped leaves blanch to almost a pure 
white. Our select strain produces heads of re¬ 
markable quality. Sow and cultivate like Let¬ 
tuce. Pkt. 10c., oz. 30c., Y lb. $1.00.
