HENDERSON S ZrZ 
COLLECTIONS 
OF 
VEGETABLE 
SEEDS 
Con- ^ 
tain seeds 
of true and 
tried varieties, 
carefully selected 
to give a continuous 
supply of vegetables 
throughout the season. 
The quantities are propor- ^ 
tioned to meet the require¬ 
ments of such gardens as are in¬ 
dicated by the titles of the collec¬ 
tions and they will be found conven¬ 
ient for patrons who find it somewhat 
confusing and irksome to look through 
the catalogue, preferring our judgment as to 
kinds and quantities. We cannot allow any 
alterations in these collections as they are put up in 
advance, ready to ship, before the commencement 
of our busy season, thus enabling us to sell them at very 
much less than the articles would cost separately. 
We enclose with every collection a pamphlet giving plain 
directions for sowing and cultivating, enabling even the in¬ 
experienced to produce fresh vegetables the entire season. 
OUR CHOICEST SELECTIONS FOR QUALITY, QUANTITY 
AND CONTINUITY AT A VERY GREAT SAVING OF COST
