HENDERSON’S IMPROVED NEW YORK SPINELESS 
Plant 
Our superior stock of this popular variety produces a large crop of shapely, 
purple fruits of liberal size and perfect quality. 
The plant is of low growth with a vigorous branching habit, strong enough to 
support its massive fruits and compact enough 
to economize space. It is very prolific, the 
plants usually bearing 8 to 10 immense 
fruits of superb quality before being 
killed by frost. Such fruits as arc 
large enough may be picked and 
stored in a warm, dry place at the 
approach of frosty nights, and 
they will keep in good condition 
for some time. ( See engraving.)

“ My father, Mr. W. W. Dickerson, used 
your seeds for over 30 years. We are 
especially proud of our success with Hen¬ 
derson's New York Spineless Egg 
Plants, which we grew to an average 
weight of lbs ”

Dwarf Green 
Curled Scotch Kale 
Should be sown during 
June and transplanted 
later for use during fall, 
winter or early spring. 
The plants are hard} 
above zero. The flavor 
is best after being ex¬ 
posed to frost. For this 
reason the crop from 
summer sown seed is 
preferable, although it is 
often used in summer.

“ We had heads of Dw 
Green Curled Scotch Kale t 
weighed 7 lbs. 9 02 . It is 
finest Kale I ever saiv or tasted, 
and I have been eating Kale for 
J,0 years. There are no dwarf 
heads in the entire lot, and I would 
suggest that you call it 'Giant' in¬ 
stead of ‘ Dwarf A"

Large American Flag Leek 
The Leek is closely allied to the Onion. The entire 
lower portion of the plant is used, which is smooth, solid, 
and generally the same thickness throughout. It is boiled 
whole, or used in soups; the young plants make excellent 
“Scallions.” The flavor is mild, and preferred by many 
for this reason. American Flag is the best variety for 
general use. (See engraving.) Price, 10c. pkt., 25c. oz., 
75c. M lb., $2.50 lb. 
“Your American Flag Leek was simply grand.”

Early Short Leaved 
White Vienna Kohl-Rabi 
A singular variety of Cabbage with a Turnip-like 
bulb which forms immediately above the ground. It 
is extremely tender and partakes of the flavor of both 
Turnips and Cabbage. The bulb is large enough to be 
eaten in from 10 to 12 r-eeks from sowing, and as they 
arc more tender and delicately flavored before fully 
matured, it is advisable to make successive sowings, 
rather than depend upon a standing crop. Should be in 
every garden. (See engraving.) Price, 10c. pkt., 30c.

11 1 received your catalogue, and am' already making up my 
order of seeds. I feel I owe it to you to tell you of my wonderful 
success with your seeds. Last year on a plot 30 x 100 I raised
