Henderson’s Improved New York Spineless. A vastly su¬ 
perior type; the plants are of low, stocky, branching habit and 
absolutely free from spines. It is a very early and continuous 
producer of handsome purple fruits of the largest size and 
finest quality; the plants usually bear 8 to 10 immense fruits 
before being killed by frost. Such fruits as are 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 cut.) Price, iOc. pkt., 40c. oz., $1.25 34 lb., $4.50 lb.

KALE CURLED SCOTCH GREEN CURLED ENDIVE 
Largely grown for supplying “greens” during 
the fall, winter and spring; also'used small, like 
Spinach; also useful in garnishing. The plants 
are hardy above zero; frost improves the quality. 
The leaves are very large, deeply curled and 
fringed, and of that desirable rich bright green 
color; the plants are of very dwarf, even growth, 
the leaves hugging the ground, so that they are 
not broken off by heavy, wet snow, as often 
happens with taller types. Price, 5c. pkt., 15c. 
oz., 40c. M lb., $1.20 lb. 
SHORT-LEAVED EARLY WHITE 
VIENNA KOHL'RABI 
Kohl-Rabi is a bulbous formed vegetable much 
appreciated in Europe and too little known in 
America.. It is usually cooked before fully grown, 
when it is tender and excellent. This variety is 
one of the best, being very early, rapid growing, 
tender and delicately flavored. The bulb is large 
enough to be eaten in from 10 to 12 weeks from 
sowing and as it is more tender and delicately 
flavored before fully matured, it is advisable to 
make successive sowings, rather than depend upon 
a standing crop. Price, 10c. pkt., 30c. oz.. 90c. 
M lb., $3.00 lb. 
One of the best salads, especially when blanched; also much used for garnishing; 
if boiled, makes fine “greens.” Successive sowings furnish a supply almost the 
year round. A popular sort with finely cut leaves. Our strain is a long-standing 
type. It is large, hardy and practically all heart, requiring but little aid in 
blanching. {See cut.) Price, 10c. pkt., 20c. oz., 60c. ^ lb., $2.00 lb.
