USEFUL HERBS 
A few Pot Herbs and Sweet Herbs should have a place in every vegetable garden. Every cook and every good housekeeper knows the value of the little patch 
ot herbs upon which she makes daily drafts in the summer, and which furnishes such a nice collection of dried herbs for winter seasoning, without which the 
Thanksgiving turkey would be scarcely worth the having ; while as domestic medicines several kinds are held in high repute. A very small space in the garden 
will give all the herbs needed in the family. 1 he culture is very simple; and the best way is to make a little seedbed in the early spring and set the plants out 
in a bed as soon as large enough. As a general rule it is best to cut the herbs when in (lower, tie them up in small bunches, and hang in the shade to dry. Wt 
give a list of the herbs generally cultivated and prized. Of some kinds we furnish roots, as will be seen below ;

VICK’S FARMER’S HANDBOOK 
The greater variety of farm crops that distinguish modern farming demand of the seedsman a much larger collection of seeds for field culture. 7 ’his demantl 
we have met, and can now supply seeds in large or small quantities and of the best quality of the most desirable species and varieties of grasses, forage, cover, 
soil-renovating, cereal, and other economic plants. In thus increasing this branch of our business, we hope to be of special assistance to the farming community in 
enabling them to procure with less trouble their field seeds of high quality and at the most reasonable prices. 
We are sending out Vick’s Farmer's Handhook, which will be sent free to those of our old customers who ask for it, and to those who have never patron¬ 
ized us before this season, if the request is accompanied with an order from either the Floral Guide or the Gem Catalogue. To others 25 cents. It was our 
intention when we first started this work to make it merely a special farmers’ catalogue, but in progress of the work it seemed more practical to make it a hand-book 
that would be a guide and help to every progressive farmer in the country, and worth double the price we ask. In order to be of especial service to our customers 
this publication is not a mere Catalogue, but a compendium of valuable information of the highest practical importance to the farmer, relating to the nature, culture, an'i 
care of the various crops mentioned. The practical instructions contained in its pages have been compiled from many sources, and those of the highest authority, 
and may be relied upon for faithful guidance. Reliable instructions will be found in regard to the preparation of land, fertilizing, culture and care of crops, including 
spraying for fungous and insect foes, and the whole fully illustrated. In short, this publication will be found the farmers' ready reference book, which he will always 
keep close at hand. 
TWENTY-FOUR DISTINCT COLLECTIONS 
Of Flower Seeds, Vegetable Seeds, Hardy Plants, Lilies, Roses, and Small Fruits, selected from our best strain of seeds and plnnls. 
Don’t fail to read the last pages of Novelties and Specialties, preceding the general list of vegetables. Something for almost nothing.
