Very few plants make such 
a gorgeous display during 
the season as the Verbenas, 
or furnish more flowers for

flower, and sweet fragrance. 
They grow from seed the first 
season. For profusion of 
bloom—large blossoms, and 
variety of colors—my select¬ 
ed mixture cannot be excel¬ 
led. I wish every one to grow 
these lovely flowers.

COOK’S PERFECTION PARSNIP. 
Rightlv named, and with¬ 
out doubt the finest strain 
of Parsnip that can be pro¬ 
duced. It is a wondertul 
improvement on the old 
sorts, and no one desiring 
the best should fail to grow 
it. The roots are very 
smooth and handsome; 
tender, sugary, fine-grain¬ 
ed' and of most excellent 
quality. Customers are 
unanimous in praising it. 
This is truly a delicious 
vegetable, very tine stew¬ 
ed, fried, boiled, etc. All 
who do not like the old 
poorer sorts are recom¬ 
mended to try this. 
It produces enormous 
crops; and the short, thick 
roots are easily gathered. 
It is without question the 
best for home use, market, 
or exhibition purposes. 
While this is essentially a 
table parsnip—it is also su¬ 
perior to all others for stock 
feeding owing to its great 
size and extraordinary 
sweetness. ,

seed 10c. 8 for 25c.

New Japanese Climbing Cucumber. 
A distinct new cucumber from Japan. The vines 
are extra strong and vigorous, and great climbers- 
producing a surpris¬ 
ing amount of superi¬ 
or fruit on poles, fen¬ 
ces, etc. 4Sr Three 
times the usual crop 
from a given area can 
be grown with this 
variety. They are lar¬ 
ge size, nice green col¬ 
or, and fine for pick¬ 
ling and slicing. The 
vines and fruit being 
elevated do not suffer 
from wet weather and 
insects. It sets its 
fruit constantly thru- 
out the season. I am 
sure all will be pleas¬ 
ed with it. Pkt. ioc.
