ave VEGETABLE PLANTS AND ROOTS 
Please Read Before Ordering 
Orders for all kinds of plants, roots, nursery stock, etc. will be accepted 
at any time, and booked for shipment later. They will be sent when ready 
or when it is time to set them out. 
If you order plants sent on specific dates, we will do our best to ship 
them as near the proper time as possible. Weather conditions or other 
circumstances sometimes make it impossible to ship plants at a certain 
time. Therefore, if you do not receive your plants promptly when ordered, 
please be assured that we are doing all we can to get them on the way to 
you. Orders for plants are filled according to the dates we receive them, 
so it is always wise to order early. 
Shipping Plants. Plants, roots, nursery stock, etc. can be shipped 
only to places in the United States east of the Mississippi and north of 
Tennessee. Various state quarantine regulations, etc, prevent shipping 
these items to other sections. 
We pay postage or express charges within this shipping area on all 
items except where quoted ‘‘not paid.’”’ That means that the purchaser 
pays transportation charges. Plants quoted “‘not paid” are usually sent by 
express collect. If wanted by parcel post, sufficient extra postage must 
be included with your remittance. See inside front cover. 
Plants will not be sent C.0O.D. 
Please Note. Our Plants are expertly and carefully packed so that 
they should reach you in good condition; however, if they are delayed on 
the road or for any other reason they arrive in poor shape, let us know at 
once and proper adjustment will be made. We cannot be responsible for 
the plants living after they are planted as this depends on how they are 
planted and the soil and weather conditions over which we have no con- 
trol. Prompt notification will help us serve you better. 
VEGETABLE PLANTS 
BROCCOLI 
Early Transplanted Plants. Ready April 25th to May 15th. These 
plants are carefully grown in our greenhouses and are very valuable 
for getting early crops of Broccoli. The seed used is our special strain of 
Italian Green Sprouting or Calabrese. 
45c per Doz.; 2 Doz. 75c; $2.75 per 100 transportation paid. 
Field Grown Plants. Ready about June 15th. These are large sturdy 
plants grown outdoors and are not ready until the middle of June. 
These are best for raising late summer and fall crops of Broccoli. 
40c per Doz.; 2 Doz. 70c; $1.75 per 100 transportation paid. 
BRUSSELS SPROUTS 
Field Grown Plants. Ready about Jume 15. Well-grown plants raised 
from our Catskill! strain, much superior to any other kind. Grown 
outdoors and not ready until the middle of June. 
40c per Doz.; 2 Doz. 70c; $1.75 per 100 transportation paid. 
CABBAGE 
Early Transplanted Plants. Ready about April 15 to May 15. We sow 
the seed for these plants very early in the greenhouse, and transplant 
them carefully. When large enough they are set out in the cold frames 
to harden them so that they will stand considerable frost. They are 
much better than ordinary frame-grown cabbage plants. We offer only 
Golden Acre Special, as it is much the best early variety. 
45e¢ per Doz.; 2 Doz. 75c; $2.50 per 100 transportation paid. Not paid: 
$6.50 for 500; $12.00 for 1,000. (Weight 500—14 lIbs., 1,000—25 lbs.). 
Field Grown Plants. Ready about June 15th. These are grown directly 
in the open ground outdoors and are therefore not ready to ship until 
about June 15th. We offer sturdy, dependable plants of our three most 
popular varieties: Golden Acre Special, Danish Ballhead (Harris’ 
Special Strain), and Super Curled Savoy. 
40c per Doz.; 2 Doz. 70c; $1.50 per 100 transportation paid. 

Many customers write that our method of packing 
melon plants is “a work of art.” 
CAULIFLOWER 
Early Transplanted Plants. Ready April 25 to May 15. These are 
started in the greenhouse like the early cabbage, and are also trans- 
planted carefully. Cauliflower plants, however, are only slightly hard- 
ened to make them ship well, but not so much as to check the growth. 
Our many years of experience enable us to furnish excellent cauliflower 
plants. We offer only Snowball, Perfected Strain, as it is by far the 
best variety. 
45c per Doz.; 2 Doz. 75c; $2.75 for 100 transportation paid. Not paid: 
$7.50 for 500; $14.00 for 1,000. (Weight 500—14 Ibs., 1,000—25 lbs.) 
Field Grown Plants. Ready about June 15. These are grown outdoors 
like the field-grown cabbage plants and are just right for producing 
fine heads of cauliflower in the late summer and fall. Not ready until 
the middle of June. Snowball, Perfected Strain, only. 
40c per Doz.; 2 Doz. 70c; $1.75 for 100 transportation paid. Not paid: 
$3.50 for 500; $6.00 for 1,000. (Weight 500—20 Ibs., 1,000—40 lbs.) 
CELERY 
Greenhouse Grown Plants. Ready about May ist. Sturdy plants 
started early in the greenhouse, and transplanted to make an even, 
vigorous growth. This year we offer the two varieties which are the 
best and most popular for home gardens: Cornell 19 (yellow) and 
Summer Pascal (green). 
$1.25 for 50; $2.25 per 100 transportation paid. 
EGG PLANT 
Potted Plants. Ready after May 15th. As these plants are easily injured 
in transplanting we raise them in No. 2% Fertile Pots (see page 84) 
and ship them pot and all, ready to be set directly in the garden. 
Biack Beauty only. (We cannot supply less than 12 plants.) 
$1.65 per Doz.; 2 Doz. $3.00; $5.50 for 50 transportation paid. Not 
paid: $8.00 per 100. (Weight 100—50 lbs.) 
MELON PLANTS 
We grow and ship our muskmelons and watermelon plants in No. 24% 
“Fertile Pots” (see page 84), which are set right in the ground with the 
plant. This has proved very successful as the plants are not checked. 
At the time they reach the purchaser, the pots are soft and resemble 
earth; the roots grow through the pot and are not disturbed. 
We do not recommend setting out melon or watermelon plants until the 
weather gets really warm, as they are badly checked by cold nights. 
Note: Our shipping cartons hold just 12 plants and therefore we cannot 
send less than 1 doz. melons or watermelons. We can, however, supply 6 of 
one kind and 6 of another. 
MUSKMELON 
Potted Plants. Ready about June 1st. Well grown and properly hard- 
ened plants, shipped in our new, specially built cartons. Varieties. 
Delicious, Bender’s Surprise and Iroquois. 
$1.50 per Doz.; 2 Doz. $2.75 transportation paid. Not paid: $8.00 per 
100. (Weight 100—50 lbs.) Not sent beyond the 4th Zone. 
WATERMELON 
Potted Plants. Ready about June 1st. Sturdy and properly hardened. 
Varieties: Honey Cream and Dixie Queen. 
$1.50 per Doz.; 2 Doz. $2.75 transportation paid. Not paid: $8.00 per 
100. (Weight 100—50 lbs.) Not sent beyond the 4th Zone.
