BRECK’S INTRODUCTIONS. 
There are annually offered the gardening public new varieties of vegetables that die with the year of their birth 
because they are either not distinct from or superior to sorts that preceded them. During the past fifteen years we 
have introduced the following kinds: they have withstood the test of time and are generally catalogued by the seed 
trade although our name dots not often appear in connection with them. Being the originators we still give more 
than usual care to keep these sorts up to the highest standard of excellence, and we confidently recommend them as 
the best types of the several kinds. 
BRECK’S DWARF 
HORTICULTURAL ' 
BEAN. 
Pods long, very beautifully 
colored, and produced with 
greatest abundance. As a 
shell bean for market or fam¬ 
ily use it is without equal, 
either in abundance or quality 
of crops. Pkt., io cts.; qt., 25 
cts.; pk., $1.25. 
BRECK’S SOYA BEAN. 
1 his is the only Soya Bean suitable for profitable cultivation in the 
New England States. The original seed was brought from Japan in 1891. 
It is a very heavy cropper, often producing from twenty-five to thirty bush¬ 
els per acre. I he dry beans are white in color and when roasted and ground 
form an excellent substitute for coffee. As a baking bean they are unsur¬ 
passed, while as meal for feeding to milch cows they will produce more 
milk ton for ton than any other meal or grain. The plant may also be 
grown for fodder and silo purposes. Pkt., 10 cts.; qt., 20 cts.; pk., $1.00. 
BRECK’S WHITE BOUQUET CAULI¬ 
FLOWER. 
We cannot say too much in favor 
of this strain of cauliflower ; leading 
private and market growers all over the 
land increase their plantings of it 
year by year, and those who have 
had most experience with it s r eak 
loudest in its praise. When introduc¬ 
ing the White Bouquet in 1890, we 
claimed it to be in all respects equal at 
least to any other sort in cultivation. 
Now a great many of our customers , who 
have grown it, claim it is better than all 
other sorts, no matter at what price 
offered. We have continually aimtd to 
improve the strain, if possible, by selec¬ 
tion, and we feel we have succeeded in 
producing a type that is without an 
equal, either for forcing or open-ground 
cultivation. It is earlier than any other cauliflower, produces a larger percentage of solid pure- 
white heads, averaging ten inches in diameter, is dwarfer and more compact in habit and has 
no useless rank-growing outer leaves to take up space. Its natural early maturing, coupled with its 
neat form of growth, make it peculiarly suitable for growing under glass during winter or spring. 
We own the entire seed stock, and every package of the genuine will be sealed with our trade-mark 
oz., $3- 5° 5 ?i lb., $12.00.
