HENDERSON’S

NEW BOOR,

io Rac unique new book mirrors the charms of the prettiest parks, lawns and gardens of Europe and America.

ICTURESOQUE GARDENS”

160 pages, 934x12 inches; 340 photographic illustrations.

(Ornamental Gardening Illustrated),

By CHARLES HENDERSON.
Price, $2.50, post-paid.

The pictur-

esque, the natural and the gardenesque adornments are reflected in over three hundred magnificent photographic
illustrations from mnature—many of these views are 5x7 inches, some larger, few smaller; they are grouped and

printed in a most artistic manner on heavy-coated paper, with just enough text matter to describe the view and name the plants,
vines, trees and shrubs needed to produce a similar effect or design.

“To say this is one of the most useful and beautiful
works ofthe times on practical landscape gardening is no
more than due to Mr. Henderson. There are several hun-
dred illustrations of beauty spots in large and small gar-
dens that afford admirable hints for those who would
make beauty where plainness only ruled before.”

MEEHAN’S MONTHLY.

“T have received ‘Picturesque Gardens,’ with which I
am much pleased, having. from it, received many valua-
ble hints as to the beautifying of a place of seven acres,
on which was some bog land that I did not knowwhat to
do with. It is a handsome and valuable book, and one
which I appreciate for its practicability.”

J. T. BULLARD, Mt. Lake Park, Md.

“‘This is a notable book, both for the variety and ex-
cellence of its photographic illustrations and as a prac-
tical contribution to the growing love of Americans who
delight in making the surroundings of their homes beau-
tiful, ete.” THE CONGREGATIONALIST.

“To say that Iam pleased with your hook, ‘Picturesque
Gardens, is stating it lightly. It is a magnificent work
of art, a valuable guide to the gardener, carrying one, as
it were, through the world’s beautiful gardens and suggest-
ing, from time to time, beautiful effects in plant grouping
and color blending.”’ JOHN COCHRAN,

Gardener to Mrs. J. E. Addicks, Claymont, Del.

“ The book will be found of the greatest assistance to
those whose mission is to make home surroundings beau-
tiful, etc.” THE FLORISTS’ EXCHANGE.

NEW BOOK,

Picturesque Gardens,” © Sarre abn ot me benetiul Ty teraz

There are in this country many lawns, gardens and grounds which the
owners would improve and embellish, but they do not know exactly what they
want, what would look well nor how to go about it, and it is for the benefit of
such that we have prepared this book, for, although there are countless works of
exhaustive precept on landscaping and gardening, there have been none issued so
rich with illustrations of example. In it we force no particular styles or fashions,
but describe and picture such a great variety of lawn and garden creations that
some fruitful suggestions must be found adaptable to the environment of every
home, whether pretentious or modest.

Those who are fond of improving and embellishing their gardens, lawns and

grounds, or who are planning new ones, will get many valuable ideas from this
beautiful book.

Bots: as popularly understood, is a term designating a
class of flowering and ornamental-leaved plants in
their dormant condition, the flowers, foliage and roots having
completed their growth, ripened off and died away, leaving
a fleshy, bulbous root, tuber, corm, rhizome or pip, as the
various types of bulbs are botanically named, but in all of
which there were formed, after flowering and before maturity,
new sets of flowers, leaves, etc., which are protected and
sustained within the succulent bulb for the next growing and
flowering period. It is during this dormant state of rest,
lasting, approximately, for from three to six months, that

bulbs are taken out of the ground—sold, shipped and re-
planted, like so many potatoes—after which, conditions being
congenial, the incipient plant and flowers develop with as
much perfection as if the bulb had remained in its original
environment.

Bulbous Flowering Plants (Bulbs) produce remarkably
beautiful flowers, unsurpassed in many varieties by any other
plants in the floral kingdom, and, besides, many of them are
delightfully fragrant. There is a peculiar charm in growing
bulbous plants ; they comprise such an endless variety in habit,
form, size, color, and are adaptable for so many purposes;
many of them flower equally well under either garden or house
culture. Among other merits of bulbs is the certainty and per-
fection with which they bloom and their ease of culture.

Bulbs for Flowering in the House and Greenhouse.—
There is no class of plants that gives more satisfaction for
this purpose than bulbous plants (bulbs), and with so
little skill gives such magnificent results. They are
easily managed, and need occupy no space in the
window or greenhouse excepting when in bud and
bloom. Under suitable treatment they flower
with great certainty, and their flowering period
may be hastened (forced) or retarded so as to
‘*bring them in’’ for certain occasions, or to
give a continuous succession of bloom. There
is a great variety of kinds of bulbs to select
from for this purpose, notably: Astilbe,
*Achimenes, Allium, Amaryllis, Anemone,
Arum, Babiana, *Begonia, Brodiza, Cal-
las, Calochortus, Chionodoxa, Crocus,
*Crinum, Fritillaria, *Gesneria, *Gloxinia,
Hyacinths, Iris, Ixia, Jonquil, Lachenalia,
Leucojum, Lilium, Lily of the Valley,
*Lycoris, *Nerine, *Negelia, Narcissus,
Ornithogalum, Oxalis, *Pancratium, Ra-
nunculus, Scilla, Sparaxis, Triteleia, Tro-
*peolum, Tulips (Early), Tydea, *Vallota,
Zephyranthes.
Those marked * flower during the summer.

For Geometrical or «‘ Design’’ Bedding.
—The bulbs best adapted are Dutch Hya-
cinths and Tulips, and while the dainty
blendings and variegations of colors of
many varieties of these are very beautiful,
yet in this style of bedding their individu-
alities are lost and the effect is apt to be a
jumbie. Therefore, the happiest effects are
produced by planting solid bright colors in
contrast, and in ordering the varieties it is
important to select those that will bloom at
the same time and are of proper heights.

‘YOU MUST PLANT BULBS THIS FALL!

NDERSON:& CO.,

Hardy Bulbs for Open-Ground Planting.—
A great many kinds of bulbs are hardy
enough to withstand our severe Northern
winters. Most of the suitable sorts should be
planted in the fall, and they will flower the
following season, commencing in March or
earlier with Snowdrops, Chionodoxas, Scillas,
Crocus, Aconites, Bulbocodiums, etc., which
are followed in April with Hyacinths, Tulips,
Daffodils, and hosts of other bulbous beauties.
In May appear late Tulips, late Narcissus,
Lily of the Valley, Bleeding Hearts, »etc.
Again, followed in succession until frost,
notably with Peonias, Iris, Hemerocallis,
Lilies, Montbretias, Tritomas, etc.

The [Mixed Flower Garden and Herbaceous
Border are favorite places for growing most
hardy bulbs, and where they seem to thrive
and give the most pleasure. They should be
planted here and there in little colonies
among the hardy plants and shrubs, whose
sombre winter browns and dull greens make
a most effective setting when studded in the
early spring with the brilliantly colored and
fragrant bulbous blossoms. Besides, from the
border one does not hesitate to gather flowers
daily for the house, for fear of spoiling the
effect, as would be the case from design beds.
Furthermore, in an herbaceous border bulbs
are not disturbed, the foliage remains
uninjured until ripe, thus fulfilling its duty
assigned by nature of recharging the bulb with
new flowers, foliage and energy for the next season’s display.

Bold, Isolated Clumps of Tall-growing Bulbous Plants
make a brilliant show planted on the lawn ina position not too
prominent nor too near, the object desired being a large mass
of one color, in striking contrast to the surrounding green grass
and trees. For effects of this kind only one variety should be
used.in a bed. Those most suitable are: Alstroemeria, Crown
Imperials, Dielytra, Funkias, Hemerocallis, Liliums, Mont-
bretias, Pzonias, Tritomas, etc.

Bulbs Right in the Sod on the Lawn present a pleasing
picture when in bloom in the early spring. They should be
planted in a ‘‘hit-and-miss’’ fashion, an irregular group in one

place, scattered individuals over there, as one would find wild

flowers. Of course, on closely clipped lawns, only very early
spring-flowering bulbs can be used, those that flower, ripen
and die down before it is necessary to use a mower. Then the
summer surface on the lawn will be as smooth and green as if
no sleeping bulbous beauties were beneath it waiting for their
awakening the next spring. The bulbs may be planted witha
dibble when the sod is moist and soft after fall rains, but it is
better to cut the sod, turn it back, plant the bulbs and press
the sod in place. Suitable sorts are: Aconite (Eranthis),
Bulbocodium, Chionodoxa, Crocus, Hepaticas, Grape Hyacinths,
Scillas, Snowdrops, Snowflakes (Leucojum).

*“ Naturalizing ”’
Hardy Bulbs in semi-
wild, outlying grounds
is a happy style of sim-
mulating nature. Such
bulbs should be used as
can be planted in quan-
tity, from a dozen to a
hundred of a kind in a
patch. Fortunately,
among bulbous plants
we have many that are
hardy, thrive and in-
crease in such rough,
neglected, picturesque
places even better than
in the prim. garden.
Thosesuitable are: Aco-
nite (Eranthis), Dode-
catheon, Blood Root,
Bulbocodium, Camas-
sia, Chionodoxa, Col-
chicum, Lily of the Val-
ley, Crocus, Narcissus,

@HE HYACINTH is probably the most useful and popular hardy bulb

grown. It delights millions of flower lovers throughout the world with its
matchless beauty and rare fragrance. Every home could be cheered in wiuter
and every garden be glorified in spring with the sweet breath, beautiful colors
and buxomly formed trusses of wax-like flowers, for the Hyacinth is amenable
to the most diverse treatment, endures most severe hardships, and blooms
most gratifyingly in winter or spring, as desired.

It may be grown in pots or in glasses, orin the garden. The colors, shades
and tints are wonderfully varied, from purest white through blush, pink, rose,
etc., to deepest red, and from daintiest porcelain through blues to black-purple,
from cream through yellows to orange and rosy apricot, etc. Named varieties
(offered on pages 6 to 9) produce the finest trusses of bloom, and should
always be selected for specimens in pots or glasses; the cheaper grades (as
offered on this page) are usually used for bedding, garden borders or for

(@tese BULBS are of a much larger size than those put in ordinary mix-

tures; in fact, most of these average as large as bulbs often sent out as
‘“‘First Size Named”? by some dealers. They are of the same age as the
first size Fancy Named Hyacinths offered by us on pages 6 and 7, from
which these are the second selection. They will produce fine spikes of bloom,
and each sort as offered below, being of one shade of color and blooming at
one time, render them of great value for forcing aud bedding out, especially
in designs, enabling one to obtain the exact color-effect desired, which is a
great advantage over mixed reds, mixed blues, etc., at but a slight advance
in price over ordinary mixtures.

E have a number of customers who are Hyacinth fanciers, and want
the very largest and finest bulbs of the best varieties, regardless of
price, to enable them to produce flowers superior to their neighbors

—or for exhibition. To meet this demand we have arranged with our

Holland growers to pick out at a fancy price a limited quantity of the very

biggest bulbs harvested.

The flowers of Hyacinths in an incipient form are stored in the hearts of
the bulbs before maturity, exactly as they afterwards develop. So that if you
purchase younger, cheaper bulbs, containing in embryo only afew bells on a
spike, no system of culture can make them produce more that season. There-
fore, for the finest results the best, oldest and largest bulbs (within certain
limits) should be chosen, for these usually contain the most perfect and
greatest number of flowers. .

The varieties of Hyacinths comprising our ‘‘ XX” assortment have been
selected most carefully from hundreds of named varieties and are of distinct
and superb shades and colorings, producing largest, compactly furnished,
perfectly formed trusses, and we unreservedly recommend them to our cus-
tomers as superlatively fine for growing in either pots or glasses, for winter
flowering in the house. Ofcourse, they would be equally superior for garden
culture—but may be too expensive for the latter purpose. In ordering, be
sure to mention *‘ X X”’ before each variety wanted of this grade, viz.:

Single Red, Rose and PinK Hyacinths.

XX Cardinal Wiseman. Dainty blush-pink throughout; large broad truss.

XX Fabiola. Salmon-pink; very large, fine spike.

“Roman” Hyacinths

HE flowers, while smaller than those of the Dutch Hyacinth, yet
are produced in much greater abundance—each bulb bearing
several very graceful flower spikes. The delicious perfume, earli-

ness and profusion of bloom have made Roman Hyacinths exceedingly
popular; they are so easily grown andsoearly that if potted in August
and September they can be brought into flower in November and
December, and a succession can be had in bloom throughout the winter.
Roman Hyacinths are not considered hardy enough for open-ground
culture north of Washington, though in our grounds near New York
they have proven perfectly hardy, slightly protected. For cutting pur-
poses the Roman Hyacinth is the finest bulb grown. (See cut.)

White Italian Hyacinths ° “roms”

The profusion of bloom, fragrance and graceful spikes render them very
popular for cutting purposes. The bulbs are red-skinned and bloom a little
later than White Romans, and, therefore, are valuable for succession; also for
garden planting for spring flowers. 5c. each, 50c. per doz., $3.50 per 100, or
buyer paying transit, $30.00 per 1,000.

PAN DUTCH ROMAN HYACINTHS

These are small-bulbing varieties of Dutch Hyacinths that produce good
spikes of flowers, eminently adapting them for winter flowering in the house,
with most satisfactory results; 10 to 12 bulbs are planted in earthen pans,
8 or 9 inches across. Several of these pans can be filled and put away to root
in the usual manner, and by bringing them in at intervals a beautiful display
can be enjoyed for weeks. (See cut.) White, Pink, Crimson, Blue, Purple or
Mixed Colors. 4c. each, 40c. per doz., $3.00 per 100.

GRAPE, MUSK AND ...
... FEATHERED HYACINTHS

These very curious and pretty little Hyacinths are perfectly hardy, and
thrive and increase in partially shaded positions in the garden. When
naturalized in little colonies where they can remain undisturbed for
several years, the effect—especially of the Grape Hyacinths—is very

_ pretty. All are also adapted for winter flowering in the house.

Blue Grape Hyacinths. 12c. per doz., 60c. per 100, $5.00 per 1,000.

White Grape Hyacinths. 15c. per doz., 85c. per 100, $7.50 per 1,000.

HENDERSON’S LEADING

Although there are hundreds of varieties of Tulips, comprising innumerable colors,
shades and combinations of markings and alladapted for garden planting—yet for brilliant
bedding effects the solid colors are usually preferred—especially for design bedding. For
this reason we give opposite a list of the sorts usually chosen for such purposes, that can
be sold sufficiently low to enable them to be used in quantity. A pretty style of bedding
out Tulips and Hyacinths now much followed is tocut a narrow graceful design out of the
sod (see page 3)—bows, festoons, crescents or more intricate designs may be followed.
The green grass makes an effective setting and a comparatively small number of bulbs
used in this style makes a fine show.

We offer these ‘‘Leading Bedding Tulips’’ at a low rate per thousand to induce larger
plantings this fall. At these prices we cannot prepay transit, but will do so in the U.S. if
$2.00 per 1,000 extra is allowed. We will supply 250 bulbs of one variety at the 1,000
rate. For smaller quantities see the delivered prices, pages 12 and 13.

HENDERSON’S SUPERIOR

SINGLE EARLY TULIPS

Tulips are such universal favorites that it is scarcely necessary to expatiate upon
their merits here. Their beauty of form and variety of coloring, from the most
dainty tints and blendings to gorgeous colorings, render them most popular for
spring bedding, while for winter flowering in the greenhouse and window garden

they are incomparable. The Tulip is extremely hardy and of easy culture,
blooming as freely and producing as fine flowers in a confined town garden as in
amore favored place. Double and Single Tulips, when associated together and

planted in front of shrubs, maintain a longer display than if either are sepa-
rately planted. In gardens where the flower beds are to be kept gay from theeurli-
est day of spring, plant between the lines of Tulips, Scilla Sibirica, Chionodoxas,
Snowdrops or Crocus, as these flower first and are through when the Tulips
come into bloom.

TUEIES:

DOUBLE TULIPS—REX RUBRORUM AND ALBA MAXIMA.

OUBLE TULIPS have massive flowers of brilliant and
varied colors, shades and markings, and being double,
the flowers last much longer in bloom than single vari-

eties, and, in consequence, when singles and doubles are planted
in conjunction the ‘‘time of the Tulips” is greatly prolonged.
Double Tulips are beautifully adapted for beds on the lawn,
in the garden, and for mingling in clumps of half a dozen or
more around the edges of shrubbery. They are robust growers
and exceedingly effective. The early sorts (those indicated by
an “A” or,““B’’) do splendidly when grown in pots for winter

, blooming; but must be forced much slower than Single Early
Tulips, by keeping them cooler.

The letters following the varieties indicate their earliness:
those marked ‘‘A’’ flower together and are the earliest; those
marked ‘‘B”’ follow, etc. The figures indicate the average height
in inches. :

We supply 6 Bulbs of one variety at the dozen rate,
25 at the 100 rate, 250 at the 1,000 rate.

Garden Tulips

This group of LATE-FLOWERING GARDEN TULIPS generally is in full flush of
bloom about ‘‘ Decoration Day.’’ They differ from the Early Single Tulips by their
taller growth and later bloom. Planted in conjunction with the Early Tulips—on
pages 12 to 15—a gorgeous display of bloom can be enjoyed untillatein May. They
are brilliant in the extreme for bedding purposes. The flowers are very large, sym-
metrically formed and their magnificent colors, with interesting and delicate feather-
ings and markings, make a sight not soon to be forgotten, particularly when bedded
out in quantity. They are very hardy and do well through ali sorts of weather,

We Deliver Free in the U.S. Bulbs, Vegetable and Flower Seeds and Books

The flowers of these Late or May-
flowering Tulips are very large, of
symmetrical form, and are borne on
tall, strong stems, often two feet high.
They by far surpass in colors and
brilliancy anything before known in
Tulips. The colors are so glowing
and bright that in the sunlight the
effect is fairly dazzling. They include
almost every conceivable color and
shade, from the daintiest blue to the
darkest violet, from soft rose to the
most brilliant red, and from light
brown to what is believed to be the
darkest black in the floral world.

HENDERSON’S SUPERIOR

ARCISSUS on [J)AFFODILS.

ype wonderful creations in the way of new varieties have awakened an interest and enthusiasm

among the lovers of flowers that has placed this, ‘‘ The Flower of the Poets,’’ in the
front rank of popularity, and they merit all the praise that can be bestowed upon them. © Ap-
pearing, as they do, just after bleak winter, they turn our gardens, lawns and woodland walks
into gorgeous masses of gold and silver, with a fragrance that is enchanting. They areequally
valuable for growing in pots for winter flowering, and are prized for pot culture, flowering
in the house with the Hyacinth, and should be cultivated in the same way, 3 roots at least
in a 4 or 5-inch pot. The cut flowers of Daffodils are much in demand for bouquets and
vases, and some of the varieties are forced in immense quantities by florists for cut
flowers in winter. Narcissus are of the easiest culture, and all excepting the Polyanthus
varieties on page 22, are perfectly hardy, though the latter live through severe winters, if
protected.

NOTE.—In describing Narcissus we have referred to the “‘perianth’”’ and “ trumpet.”
The latter is the long centre, funnel-like tube, and the ‘‘perianth”’ is the surrounding row
of petals or leaves.

he ‘‘Large Trumpet’? section of the Daffodil family is perhaps the most popular of all. The flowers are of large size; the perianth or spreading petals

(ey measure, according to the variety, from 2% to 3% inches across, and the trumpets vary from 2 to 3 inches in length. The flowers are of much substance,

and being gracefully poised on long, stiff stalks, are especially beautiful when cut for vases and table decoration, lasting in water for over a week; they

are also largely used in the cities as corsage flowers. The bulbs are hardy and of the easiest culture, either planted in the garden for spring blooming or in pots
for winter blooming in the bouse.

MEDIUM TRUMPET NARCISSUS are among the most useful of all the Daffodil family for cutting, for
bouquet, corsage and decorative purposes. The flowers are very large, averaging from 3 to 5 inches across,
with medium-sized, cup-shaped trumpets, and on that account are preferred by many for their chaste and

NARCISSUS POETICUS VARIETIES.

The ‘‘ Poeticus” Varieties of Narcissus are among the most beauti-
ful of all spring-flowering bulbous plants. The large single blossoms, 2
to 2% inches across, are of snowy whiteness, intensified by the exquisite
golden-colored cups, ringed like a ‘‘ Pheasant’s Eye”’ with red and green.
The flowers are gracefully poised—on long stout stems—adapting them
for vases. ‘They are especially valuable for garden planting and for
naturalizing where, if planted in quantity and allowed to remain undis-
turbed, they thrive,spread and improve every year; by mixing the early
and late sorts a continuous display of flowers may be enjoyed for
several weeks.

cups of some varieties, the yellow with deep orange cups of others,

and the self whites and yellowsrender them great favorites. They
are not quite so hardy as the other types of Narcissus and there-

fore should .be carefully protected in cold climates when grown
in the garden.

CHINESE SACRED NARCISSUS,

HE “Shui Sin Far”’ or Water Fairy Flower. Joss Flower, or Flower
of the Gods, etc., as it is called by the Celestials, is a variety of
Narcissus, bearingin lavish profusion chaste flowers of silvery-

white, with golden-yellow cups. They are of exquisite beauty and en-
trancing perfume. Itis grown by theChinese, according to their ancient
customs, to herald the advent of their new year and as a symbol of good
luck. 2

The bulbs are grown by a method known only to themselves, where-
by they attain great size and vitality, ensuring luxuriant growth and
immense spikes of flowers; in fact, the incredibly short time required to
bring bulbs into bloom (four to six weeks after planting) is one of the
wonders of nature. ‘You can almost see them grow,” succeeding al-
most everywhere and with everybody. They do well in pots of earth,
but are more novel and beautiful grown in shallow bowls of water, with
enough fancy pebbles to prevent them from toppling over when in
bloom. A dozen bulbs started at intervals will give a succession of
flowers throughout the winter. (See cut.) Price, large true China-
grown bulbs, delivered free in U. S., 12c. each, $1.25 per doz.

Spring- Flowering Crocus.

HE Crocus is one of the earliest flowers of spring and
occupies a prominent place in every garden. When
planted as an edging in triple lines of one or more
colors, the effect is striking. No spring display surpasses
that of Crocus; the broad wavy bands of golden-yellow,
striped, purple, or of pure white, when they expand their
blossoms in February and March, are incomparable. In
lawns, planted in the grass, the Crocus is extremely ef-
fective. They are easily planted indiscriminately in the
turf with the aid of a dibber—after fall rains have made
the sod moist. The flowers and foliage are gone before
the lawn needs mowing, so they do not interfere with
the summer beauty of the lawn.

The flowers of the large-flowering named varieties
are ornamental when flowered in pots. Six or eight
roots should be planted in a pot of about five inches
diameter. They will not flower if exposed to heat, nor
must severe forcing be attempted. Crocuses are often
grown in fancy designs, such as beehives, hedge-hog pots,
columns, etc., made for the purpose (see Jatter portion of
Catalogue), and are curiousand attractive whenso grown.

There are no plants better adapted for pot culture, and few that pro-
duce such a profusion of bloom; the flowers range through many shades
of pink, crimson, white, etc., some being beautifully spotted. Most of
them are, moreover, delicately fragrant. Our bulbs are from the
most famous Cyclamen grower in Europe and will produce flowers of
rare merit.
The flowers of this magnificent giant strain are of extraordinary
size for a Cyclamen, and of great substance. The leaves are proportion-

highly prized for cutting purposes, and for flowering in pots in the
winter they are exceedingly well adapted and will last several weeks
in beauty. By taking them in at intervals a succession of flowers
may be kept up all winter. They are also forced in immense quanti-
ties by florists but they are the most charming when grown in large
patches, in partially shaded localities around thelawn, near the bor-
ders of streams, lakes, etc., being perfectly hardy. (Ready for de-

THE TRUE BERMUDA

EASTER LILY

(LILIUM HARRISI)).

The Grandest Winter-Flowering
Plant in Cultivation.

Is of the Easiest Culture, Blooming
in Wonderful Abundance.

The True Bermuda Easter Lily.

(LILIUM HARRISI)).

This peerless Lily is the greatest acquisition to floriculture made
in many years. The remarkably short time required to bring them into
flower, and the certainty to produce a profusion of bloom, and also the
ease with which they can be made to flower at any desired period,
such as Christmas, Easter and other special occasions, render them
invaluable.

The flowers are delightfully fragrant, pure waxy-white, of great
substance, and if cut as soon as they are open, or partially open, they
can be kept for two weeks.

A short time only is required to bring them into bloom. Bulbs
potted in August can be had in flower in November, if desired.

A succession of bloom can be kept up from November to May by
bringing ina few pots of bulbs from cold frames at intervals throughout
the winter.

The quantity of bloom produced is marvelous: the average pro-
duction of bulbs 5 to 7 inches in circumference, even when forced, is from
4 to 6 flowers, and of bulbs 7 to 9 inches, 8 to 12 flowers; and, if
desired, a second crop of flowers, frequently equal to the first, can be
secured the same season by drying the plants off after blooming for a
time and then again starting them.

Blooming plants in pots form typical Easter offerings and presents
for decoration of the window, table, house or church. Nothing is more
appropriately beautiful and highly appreciated. Thousands upon
thousands are sold in the large cities every winter for this purpose.

Asa garden Lily it is of great beauty, being entirely hardy, except-
ing in Northern climates, where it requires a protection of leaves or
litter to the depth of 5 or 6 inches.

DOUBLE...

CHINESE HERBACEOUS

... PAEONIAS.

(Ready in October.)

E herewith offer some of the newest and most beautiful
varieties in cultivation. These noble plants are exceed-
ingly effective; the profusion and duration of bloom,

combined with handsome massive foliage, accommodating habit
and easy culture, render them one of the most popular hardy
plants grown for lawn and garden decoration, or for mingling
with shrubs or herbaceous plants in borders and wild gardens.
The flowers are large, massive, perfect in outline and most
beautiful.

The best effect in gardens is to be obtained by planting
solitary plants at intervals, or by grouping in the lawn.

In parks large groups may be used as a foreground to shrubs
and trees, or as large masses in beds on the lawn.

As cutting material the Chinese Paeonias can scarcely be
surpassed, and no flower surpasses them when a loose arrang-
ment is wanted in a large vase. Each flowering stem produces
from three to five flowers.

These Chinese herbaceous Paeonias are perfectly hardy and
do not want to be removed before the fourth year, autumn
being the best planting time.

4} GLADIOLUS. EARLY-FLOWERING HARDY. (Ready in November.)

These Gladiolus are invaluable for flowering in the greenhouse for winter bloom. The
flowers are smaller and more tefined than those of the Gandavensis Gladiolus; the
colors and markings are very handsome; the bulbs can be kept dormant until spring
and then be planted in open ground if preferred, blooming in June and July. If
planted in cold frames they will flower as early as May, and this is perhaps the better
way in very cold localities.

color, They commence flowering in May, and with the various species maintain acon-
tinuous and unbroken succession of bloom until autumn. No class of plants capable
of being cultivated out-of-doors possesses 80 many charms; their stately habit, rich
and varied colored flowers, often deliciously fragrant, and easy culture render them
so distinct from all other hardy plants that no collection, however select. should be
without afew of the choicer sorts. They are also excellent subjects for the shrubbery
border if planted in groups between hardy Azaleas, Rhododendrons, ete.

such a potful bearing 20 to 25 spikes, each carrying 5 to 8 flowers at one time. For
best results the bulbs should be allowed to grow undivided and undisturbed as long

early fall, covering a porch, a trellis. an arbor, a fence, a boundary wall, a slope, or any other object where

it is planted, with a mass of fleecy whiteness, exhaling its delicious, Hawthorn-like fragrance, is to admire

and wantit, Even when the mass of starry flowers is gone, when the fleecy mantle of white has vanished for
another year, there is another phase of its beauty evident. Then is seen the thousands of silvery raw-silk-like,
feathery seed vessels hanging in graceful festoons and glistening in the sunlight. Its beauty is not alone in its

bloom and seed time; its refreshingly green foliage andits graceful habit lendita beatty unmatched. It will grow

THE NEw OSTRICH-PLUME FERN

(NEPHROLEPIS PIERSONI).

An entirely new form of the famous Boston Fern. The fronds grow in the
most luxuriant manner, the pinne subdividing making miniature fronds, which
are superimposed on the main fronds, looking as if two or even three were con-
densed in one. They are graceful beyond description. feathery, plumy; nothing
describes them better than Ostrich Plumes, which ‘ey very much resemble.
The young miniature fronds are constantly developing a rich lush green on the
darker green ground of the main fronds, a charming contrast being thereby
produced. The habit of the plant is grace personified; the fronds arch over in
wavy irregularity delightful to the eye. It was awarded three gold medals, the
Mass. and New York Horticultural Societies thus honoring it, also the Society
of American Florists. It has received the highest awards wherever exhibited
and is easily the most valuable plant introduced in many years. (See cut. ys

CYCAS REVOLUTA.

(‘SAGO PALM.’’)

CYCAS REVOLUTA. For years the “Sago Palm’? was so
scarce that the price was very high and beyond the reach of ordinary
plant buyers. We imported a fine lot of them from Japan and offer
them very low, so as to be within the reach of all.

It is probably the most valuable decorative plant grown, both
for lawn and house decoration; the heavy, glossy, deep green fronds
resist alike the gas, dust and changes of temperature to which
house plants are frequently exposed. (See cut.) We offer plants at
$2.00, $3.00, $4.00 and $5.00 each, graded according to number
of leaves and size.

COCOS WEDDELLIANA. This beautiful Palm is unquestion-
ably the most elegant and graceful in cultivation. The finely cut
leaves are recurved with exquisite grace. Price, from 3-inch pots,
85c. each; from 2-inch pots, 25c. each, $2.25 per dozen.

RUBBER PLANTS. We have a splendid stock of this useful
and ornamental plant, which will flourish under the most adverse
conditions. Price, 12 to 15 inches high, 50c. each, $5.00 per dozen ;
15 to 18 inches, 75c. each, $7.50 per dozen.

THE GOLD-DUST DRACAENA. (Dracena Godseffiana.)
Entirely distinct from all other Dracenas; of branching, shrubby
habit, developing from the base so as to form compact graceful
specimens in a short time. The leaves are numerous,
broadly lanceolate, about 4 inches long and 2 inches
wide; of astrong leathery texture, with highly polished
surface as if varnished; rich, dark green
in color, liberally sprinkled with irregular
specks and spots of rich yellow. On the
older leaves the spots gradually change
to ivory-white, making a fine contrast.
It is very hardy as ahouse plant, equaling,
if not surpassing, in this respect, the
Rubber Plant. (Seecut.) Strong plants
from 4-inch pots, 50c. each; plants from
83-inch pots, 35c. each.

LATANIA BORBONICA. (Fan Palm.)
This fine Palm is too well) known to need
, any extended description. (See cut.)
Price, 2-inch pots, 20c. each, $2.00 per
dozen; 38-inch pots, 30c. each, $3.00 per
dozen; 5-inch pots, 75c. each, $7.50 per
dozen; plants from 7-inch pots, $2.00 each.

83-inch pots, 30c. each, $3.00 per dozen; 2-inch
pots, 20c. each, $2.00 per dozen.

PHOENIX CANARIENSIS. One of the
hardiest of the Date Palms, with dark green
feathery foliage, of strong growth, and is

door decoration, as it stands sun and wind

situations. Price, fine plants from 8-inch pots,

in trusses pyramidical in shape, good specimens measuring nine
inches from base to tip and seven inches across, fairly covering the
plant from the ground to the top, so that it is one mass of glowing
crimson. The profusion of bloom is marvelous, over three hundred

garden collection, vases, jardiniéres, hanging baskets, etc., it is unsurpassed. It stands

Ever-Blooming Honeysuckle cscs.

N instances of intentional hybrids between species or varieties of the climbing Honeysuckles

appear to be on record.

Heckrott’s Honeysuckle is considered to be a hybrid of natural or

garden origin, and some hybrids have been found between various yellow-flowered American

species.

During the summer of 1894 the raiser attempted to hybridize several of the more

common species together, but only secured a single fruit from L. fuchsioides crossed with L-

Sullivanti, a native yellow-flowering species.

The resulting plant, Lonicera Hendersoni, produces

large clusters of yellow trumpet-shaped blooms, changing the second day to orange-red on every

young twig throughout the entire growing season, thus becoming a true ever-bloomer.

fruit. New varieties appear so rapidly and are
usually such a slight improvement on the stand-
ard sorts that caution is necessary; but after a
trial of this we are so impressed by its great
value that we unhesitatingly recommend it. No
matter from what standpoint it is judged it will
bear the most rigid inspection. The plant is
very vigorous, branching naturally, producing
an abundance of fruiting canes and an abun-
dance of large, luscious fruit. It ‘‘suckers’’ but
slightly, the roots are strong and branching,
penetrating deeply into the soil, a valuable char-
acteristic in dry seasons and locations. The fruit
is very large and handsome, intense black with a
very high polish and without any hard core, juicy,
high-flavored; of so superior a quality that it is
in a class by itself. Those accustomed to the old
varieties would scarcely recognize it for a Black-
berry. For table use, for canning or for culinary
purposes it is equally desirable. It literally melts
in the mouth. Price, 10c. each, $1.00 per doz.,

for it.

66 99 The Munger is a seedling from Schaffer’s

The Munger. Colossal. It has been thoroughly tested

by leading horticulturists, who praise it highly. Although a seedling

of Schaffer, it shows no trace of such parentage whatever, but resem-

bles more closely the Gregg in plant and fruit. The fruit is black and

resembles Gregg very much. It is a better-flavored berry than Gregg,

tougher in texture, and therefore a better shipper. In size it excels

Gregg, and is extra fine for the table and preserving. (See cut.)
Price, 10c. each, 75c. per doz., $5.00 per 100.

Cumberland Raspberry. In size the fruit is simply enormous, the
berries neasuring seven-eighths and fifteen-sixteenths of an inch in
diameter, but in spite of this, the fruit is possessed of unusual firm-
ness and is thus well adapted for standing long shipments. In
time of ripening it follows Tyler and precedes Gregg. ‘Vhe bush is
extremely vigorous and remarkably free from disease. Price, 10c.

Columbian Raspberry. Most desirable for the garden, a seedling of
the Cuthbert, which grew near a Gregg. Vigorous, hardy, produc-
tive; fruit of large size and great excellence. Price, 10c. each, 12 for
75c., 100 for $5.00.

Gregg. Canes of strong, vigorous growth. Berries very large, with
heavy bloom.

and hardy.

of good size, jet-black.

RED RASPBERRIES (If wanted by mail,
e add 10c. per dozen.)

New Red Raspberry, Loudon. Thesuperior points of this excellent
red raspberry are vigor of growth, large fruit; beautiful, rich, dark
crimson color; good quality, marvelous productiveness and hardi-
ness. Seems to succeed wherever red sorts will do well, and promises
to become the leading variety. Season medium to late. Price, 10c.
each, 75c. per doz., $5.00 per 100.

Miller. An early variety, large-fruited and profuse bearer; vigorous
grower, with large and abundant foliage; color brilliant red; sweet,
luscious flavor.

Thompson’s Early Prolific. A fine, early, hardy raspberry for general
cultivation. An excellent grower; bright crimson.

Cuthbert. The leading market variety. Canes hardy; large, healthy
foliage. Berries large, dark crimson, good flavor.

Marlboro. The largest of the early red raspberries. The canes are
hardy and fairly productive. Fine quality.

Turner. (Southern Thorniess.) Very desirable as an early sort for the
home garden. Berries good size, bright crimson, sweet.

berry yet introduced. Oflarge size and high quality.

ENDERSON’S
. - - SUPERIOR

HENDERSON’S
Early Spring Cabbage.

An Extra Early Cabbage, with a
Round Flat Head.

The most valuable early Cabbage ever
introduced. The variety is of Early Sum-
mer type, but about one-fifth smaller, hav-
ing only four or five outside leaves, and
thesesmall and growing near thehead. It
is the only extra early, round, flat-headed
Cabbage; fully one week earlier than any
other flat Cabbage, and yielding one-
third more than any other extra early;
it heads firmly, is fine grained and of
extra good quality.

HENDERSON’S
Succession Cabbage.

Finest Cabbage in Existence,
Whether for Medium Early, [Main
Crop or Winter Use. PERFECT
im every respect.

It comes jn a few days later than
Early Summer, but is of nearly double
the size and is absolutely true to its
type under all conditions. We recom-
menditeither forthe market gardener,
trucker or private planter, as it is a y
perfect cabbage in every respect, not — 3
only being of the largest size, but of
handsome color and of the finest
quality. It is a safe variety for an
amateur to plant, as it does well at
all seasons, and one is almost sure of
getting a crop, no matter when it is
planted.

HENDERSON’S SNOWBALL CAULIFLOWER.

SEEDS for Fall Sowing.

HENDERSON’S
Early Jersey
Wakefield Cabbage.

This famous Cabbage was introduced
by us, and still retains its lead as the best
first Early in cultivation. Among its
merits may be mentioned its large size of
head for an early sort, and its uniformity
in producing a crop. ‘The heads are of
pyramidal shape, with blunt peaks, and
are remarkably solid. The outside leaves
are small, though of great substance,
enabling the plants to stand severe
weather. Our seed is from highly bred,

selected stock and is unequaled.

PALMETTO ASPARAGUS. \

HENDERSON’S
Palmetto Asparagus Roots.

(Ready in November.)

A saving of one to two years is effected by
planting roots.

The Palmetto is superior; it is not only larger
and much earlier, but is also a better yielder, and is
more even and regular in its growth. Average
bunches, containing fifteen shoots, measure 13%
inches in circumference and weigh about two pounds.
The Palmetto is equally well adapted for all sections
North and South.

CHARLESTON WAKEFIELD CABBAGE.

HENDERSON’S
Early Charleston

Wakefield Cabbage.

This is the largest Early Cabbage,
which we bred from the Early ‘‘Jersey’’
Wakefield, to meet a demand for a lar-
ger heading sort. It possesses all of the
valuable characteristics of the parent with
the advantage oi the heads being fifty
per cent. larger, though a few days luter-
Our strain of the seed is very superior.

a HENDERSON’S
Early Summer Cabbage.

This peerless variety was introduced by
us; itis the best second Early Cabbage,
makes a large, solid, round, flat head,
averaging 8 to 10 pounds each, coming
in about ten days later than Wakefield.

10c. pkt., 30c. 0z., $1.00 % 1b,, $3.00 Ib.

HENDERSON’S
Early. Snowball Cauliflower.

The standard everywhere for quality, and the only Cauli-
flower that is absolutely certain to head (conditions being
congenial), forming a perfect snow-white head, averaging
nine inches in diameter. Beyond question the best cauli-
flower for either early or late, for family or market garden,
for forcing or cold frames; it heads where others fail. It
is the earliest of all Cauliflowers. Its close-growing, compact
habit enables one-third more to be planted on the same
space of ground than can be done with any other variety.
For forcing under glass during winter and spring, this Early
Snowball variety is peculiarly well adapted, from its dwarf
growth and short outer leaves, and for this purpose no
other Cauliflower is now so largely grown.

.»» HENDERSON’S...
SPECIAL GRASS MIXTURE

For Hay and Permanent Pasture.

It Produces Wonderful Hay Crops and Luxuriant Pastures
Continuously for 20 Years and More.

for progressive farmers and stock raisers in various parts of the United States, with

most gratifying results. Itis a well-balancedcombination of anumber of nativeand

acclimated foreign grasses and clovers, blended and improved upon during exhaustive trials
under widely varied conditions, soils and localities for several years, until practically perfect, our
aim being to produce under the extremes of the American climate of heat, drought and cold, a
PERMANENT, dense and deep-rooting turf that would yield year after year the maximum quantity
of hay, and afterwards to afford, if desired, a constant and abundant pasturage. That we
have been successfulis attested by the numerous letters of praise for this special grass mixture
that we have received from the users, and the tributes to its merits published in many of the
agricultural journals. Space permits us to print extracts from but a few of these encomiums,
and we refer you, for the complete description of Henderson’s Special Grass Mixture for Hay and
Permanent Pastures, to our ‘‘Farmer’s Manual,’’ mailed on application.

The Vield of May under favorable conditions averages 3 to 4 tons per acre at the first
cutting, and larger yields are not unusual; then, if not pastured, the second crop is usually about
one-half the quantity of the first.

Pasturage. After the hay crop is cut the grass commences to grow at once, recovering
its verdure in a few days’ time and affording a continuous pasturage even through dry summer
weather, until winter sets in; or the field may be pastured from earliest spring and still be in prime
condition for yielding hay or pasture the next season, and so on year after year.

Permanency. Henderson’s Special Grass Mixture for Hay and Permanent Pasture, if
properly laid down, will maintain its heavy cropping qualities twenty years and more if occasion-
ally top-dressed with manure or suitable commercial fertilizer, and it will steadily improve.

Heat and Drought-Resisting. The various kinds of grasses composing this
Special Mixture are fibrous, deep-rooting varieties that form a tough, matted sod,and are not sus-
ceptible to extremes of heat and drought, retaining their verdure even through dry, hot weather.

Adapted to a Wide Range of Soils and Climate. This Special Mixture
of grasses will thrive under a great variety of soil and climatic conditions, and in many instances
give bountiful returns where Timothy can scarcely be grown.

The Initial Cost is more in seeding with Henderson’s Special Grass Mixture, but
the uitimate returns are very profitable when the advantages are considered—including the perma-

MORE OF SIMILAR PURPORT:

_ “The growth is simply wonderful, and do not think there
is any other grass to equal it for hay or pasture. I sowed
about ten acres, from which I have cut what 1 consider the
best hay ever made on my farms.” J.S. Lone, Pa.

“The Grass seed sent me turned out well. It makes a good
grass for meadow or for grazing. It is fine, close grass and
the cattle like it.”’ Pau A. OLIVER, Pa.

“It’s the finest piece of grass anywhere about here. An
old farmer told me last week it would cut 3¥% tons to the acre
sure.”’ JAMES M. RicHarps, N. Y.

‘The Grass Mixture I got of you has done extra well, espe-
cially this year of drought. It stood the drought and yielded
about twice as much as Timothy, and the cattle seem to do
better on it.’’ WILLARD WATSON, Iowa.

_ “This is the third year and there was a heavy crop cut on
it two weeks before Timothy was ready, and, much tomy
surprise, there was quite a good second crop in spite of the
very dry season.”’ H. L. Park, Mass.

‘‘We mowed a very good crop the 20th of June, and in two
weeks had good pasture—the best in the township, and very
good now, and much admired by the neighboring farmers.
Our Timothy meadow is nearly all killed or dried up, no
pasture. But the Special Grass Mixture is now very nice and
green.” E. W. BRUEN, N. J.

Mixed Permanent Clovers should besown in
addition to the above grass mixtures, but on account of
greater weight the clover should be sown separately, and ir
cold latitudes, in the springs This Mixed Clover comprises
White, Mammoth Perennial or Cow Grass, Alsike, etc. (10
pounds required for one acre. PRICE, $2.25.)

CRIMSON OR SCARLET CLOVER. (,t2E2UM,,) _|ennusos

The most valuable plant for restoring the fertility of worn-out soils. Viento

LL lands from which crops have been harvested during the summer and fall should be sown with
Scarlet Clover for plowing under the following spring. Plowing under a good crop of Scarlet
Clover is equivalent to 20 tons of stable manure per acre, and even if the Clover be harvested or

pastured, the benefits derived from the wonderful nitrogenous root formation will alone many times
repay the cost of seed and labor.

It is the cheapest source of nitrogen, and has revolutionized the methods of farming in many
‘States, has restored to profitable cultivation thousands of acres of poor land, and should be
extensively used for sowing among corn, tomatoes, turnips, ete., at time of last hoeing or after
potatoes, melons, cucumbers, etc., have been harvested, or on grain stubble, and harrowed in. Its
value as a winter soil mulch and for green manuring for orchards cannot be overestimated, as it
provides nitrogen in the best form and quantity.

If intended for feeding, it should always be cut while in the young stage, and never fed to stock
after the crop has ceased flowering, as serious results are apt to follow the feeding of overripe
‘Crimson Clover. ‘

In the latitude of New York, time for sowing may extend from July 15th to September 15th, and
further South up to October. The seed needs to be only lightly covered, and a good plan is to sow on
fresh plowing and cover with a light harrow. Sow 15 lbs. per acre.

Choice new crop seed of highest growing quality, thoroughly recleaned and free from weed seeds,
10c. lb., $4.25 bushel, $6.75 ver 100 Ibs.

SAND OR WINTER VETCH.

(VICIA VILLOSA.)

‘The earliest crop fer cutting or plowing under
in spring, being nearly a month earlier than
Scarlet Clover, and a full crop can be taken
‘off the land in time for planting spring crops.

Itis perfectly hardy throughout the United
States, remaining green all winter, and should be
sown during August and September, mixed with
Rye, which serves as a support for the plants, or
in spring with Oats or Barley. :

It succeeds and produces good crops on poor,
sandy soils, though it is more vigorous on good
land, and grows to a height of 4 to 5 feet. Being
much hardier than Scarlet Clover, this is the
forage plant to sow in the Northern States, where
Searlet Clover winter-kills, though it is equally
valuable in the South. Every dairyman and
stock-breeder in the United States should have a
field of it.

It is exceedingly nutritious, much more so than
Clover, is eaten with a relish, and may be fed with
safety to all kinds of stock.

It will also prove yaluable for a Hay crop in the
South and dry Western regions, as it may besownin the fall.

Under favorable conditions Rape is
ready for pasturing sheep or cattle with-
im six weeks from time of sowing, and on
an average one acre will carry twelve to
fifteen sheep six weeks to two months.
When on the Rape they should at all
times have access to salt; but water is

not necessary. In the Northern States it
should be sown from May to the end of
August for fall pasturing, but as it thrives
best in cool weather, it should not be sown
in the Southern States until September or
October for winter pasture. In the latitude
of New York, July or August is the best time
tosow. Its fattening properties are probably
twice as good as those of Clover, and for sheep

WHEAT.

NEW EARLY RED CHIEF (Beardless).

A very superior new Wheat, originating from Early Red Claw-
son and Red Arcadian. Early Red Chief can be depended upon
for a granary filler even in unfavorable seasons. Strong-
growing and productive, its growth in the fall is strong, foliage
large, thick and dark, covering the ground early in the season,
and can be sown very late. The first to startin spring. Straw
thick-walled ; strong heads, long and wide, carried erect, of a
reddish-brown shade, completely packed with large, dark red
kernels. Price, 15c. per 1b., 80c. per peck, $2.50 per bushel.

NEW SILVER SHEAF LONGBERRY RED.
(Bearded.)

The most perfect Longberry Red Wheat grown. A cross
between American Bronze, Lancaster and a Longberry, it is
one of the hardiest; a strong, healthy grower and can be sown
late. If sown early, 1144 bushels of seed per acre will be enough
on strong soil. Straw medium tall, thick-walled and strong:
head long, wide and full; chaff thin and silvery-white; grain
large, dark and flinty, and nearly aslong asrye kernels. It will
be the leading fancy milling wheat. Price, 20¢c. per Ib., $1.25
per peck, $3.50 per bushel.

**‘BEARDED’’ RURAL NEW YORKER.
(Number 57.)

Heavily-bearded symmetrical heads, broad in the middle and
tapering at each end; straw unusually tall, strong and stools
freely, frequently having 35 to 40 stalks from a single grain;
heads compact, averaging three kernels to a ‘“‘breast,’’ and ten
breasts to aside; kernels of medium size; color, reddish-amber,
possessing the requisite hardness for the finest grade of flour;
chaff white, with a trace of velvet sufficient to make it difficult
for the green fiy to attack it, and the heads do not mildew as
the full velvet chaff varieties are liable to do. Price, 15c. per
Ib., 75c. per pk., $2.25 per bush.; 10-bushel lots, $2.00 per bush.

‘‘BEARDLESS’”’ RURAL NEW YORKER.
(Number 6.)

A handsome, beardless Wheat. It succeeds and produces
heavy crops on poor, thin land, where Wheat could not be suc-
cessfully or profitably grown, and it also has extreme hardiness
to recommend it. The straw is thick and strong, easily sup-
porting the heavy grain without breaking. The large amber
kernels are placed four to a breast, eight breasts to a side, with
long symmetrical heads having a brown chaff. (See cut.)

“Tt stools as strong as any Wheat I ever saw. It had @
vigorous, healthy growth all the season, and stood well without
lodging. It is very hardy.”

Price, 15c. per lb., 75c. per peck, $2.25 per bushel; 10-bushel
lots, $2.00 per bushel.

BEARDED WINTER FIFE.

A grand Wheat, an advance in quality, productiveness and
flinty grain. The hardest Wheat of all; milling qualities
superior, making quick-raising flour of chalk-like whiteness and
light bread; one of the earliest Wheats; a strong, healthy
grower, stooling rapidly in the fall; starts early in the spring.
Straw above medium height, strong and wiry; heads long, wide
and well filled; chaff white and bearded; grain medium long,
plump and of clear amber shade; bran exceptionally thin,
hence will make more flour than almost any sort; one of the
heaviest-weighing sorts. It took the first place at the Kentucky
Experiment Station over seventeen other varieties. Price, 15c.
per lb., 75c. per peck, $2.00 per bushel; 10-bushel lots, $1.85
per bushel.

GOLD COIN (Beardless).

A very popular Wheat over a large extent of territory. It
is unusually productive, having yielded over 60 bushels per
acre—while 50 and over is not unusual—and even on large acre-
ages it seldom runs under 40 bushels per acre.

‘‘It is the best variety for yielding and standing up ever
placed before the American farmer, and fairly crowds out other
kinds where it has been tried in this section.”

“Clawson and Fife do well on my farm, but the Gold Coin
does best of all. You should call it ‘Henderson’s Best of All
Wheat.’”’

The straw is very stiff and does not lodge even on the richest
jand. The head is long and compactly filled with choice white
grain. frequently having five kernels abreast. Price, 15c. per 1b.,
75c. per peck, $2.00 per bush.; 10-bushel lots, $1.85 per bushel.

PEDIGREE (Early Genesee) GIANT.

(Half-Bearded.)

A wonder in the Wheat line for thrifty fall growth, early spring
stooling, strong, short-jointed straw, solid filled heads, very
large, fine, hard, amber grain and exceptionally fine milling
qualities. On strong clay loam or river bottom it has yielded
at the rate of 6042 bushels per acre, and stands up well under
high culture. Can be sown very late with a certainty of stand-
ing the winter and gives an enormous yield. Sow late and use
two bushels of seed per acre. Price, 15c. per lb., 75c. per peck,
$2.25 per bushel; 10-bushel lots, $2.00 per bushel.

JONES’ BEARDED LONGBERRY. (No. 1.)

A grand variety, productive and hardy. It has made a record
of 544 bushels per acre; sturdy, wiry straw of good length, not
liable to lodge; heads long, wide and well filled, bearded and of
arich brown shade; kernels large and long, of blended red and
amber; high willing character and of requisite hardness for
fine grade flour. Especially adapted for late sowing, giving
large yields when sown in October. Price, 15c. perlb., 75c. per
peck, $2.25 per bushel; 10-bushel lots, $2.00 per bushel.

PRIDE OF GENESEE (Bearded).

Very productive, having a long, well-filled head; it will give a
reasonably good crop on land so poor that common sorts
would bea failure, as the head does not decrease in proportion
to the straw, being large and well filled on a very short, light
growth of straw. Price, 15c. per lb., 75c. per peck, $2.25 per
bushel; 10-bushel lots, $2.00 per bushel.

CLAWSON LONGBERRY (Beardless).

A grand cross-bred Longberry, a strong grower, prolific
stooler, and has sturdy, wiry straw. Heads long, wide and full;
chaff, brown and free from beards; grain, dark amber of the
finest quality, large, long, and of true Longberry type. It
delights in strong clay loam, and on such soil, with thorough
preparation, it will often yield fifty bushels or more per acre.
Sow 1% bushels per acre. Price, 15c. per lb., 75c. per peck,
$2.25 per bushel; 10-bushel lots, $2.00 per bushel.

RYE.

Is a valuable crop for either soiling, green fodder, straw or
grain. It is largely used by farmers to seed down with in the
fall, and is considered preferable to Wheat for this purpose, as
it protects the young grass and matures two weeks earlier in the
summer than Wheat. It is also extensively used for fall pasture
when sown early and for cutting green in late spring and early
summer, but when wanted for cutting it is best sown with the
sand or winter vetch.

WINTER. The variety commonly cultivated for grain, straw
or cutting green. Price, $1.10 per bushel of 56 Ibs.; 10-bushel
lots, $1.00 per bushel.

EXCELSIOR WINTER. A Vermont variety that has yielded
from 40 to 50 bushels per acre. Price, $1.50 per bushel of 56
Ibs.; 10-bushel lots, $1.40 per bushel

THOUSANDFOLD. Most productive, straw tall and strong,
with long. heavy heads, and stands up well. Especially recom-
mended where Rye is grown more for the straw than the
grain. Price, $1.50 per bushel of 56 lbs.; 10-bushel lots, $1.40
per bushel.

CIANT WINTER. The heaviest cropping Rye in exist-
ence, having in fair tests outyielded all other varieties both in
straw and grain. The heads average six to eight inches in
length and are filled from end to end with large, plump, heavy
grains. The straw is giantin length and strength, of extraor-
dinary stiffness, resisting severe wind and rain storms to a
remarkable degree without lodging. Price, $1.75 per bushel of
56 lbs.; 10-bushel lots, $1.60 per bushel.

OATS.

WINTER OR TURF are quite extensively grown in the
Southern States, where they are in high favor. Sown in the
fall they either afford excellent pasturage during the winter or
give abundant yield the following season. The demand for oats
of this character has been gradually extending northward, and
to meet it we have been growing in Northern Pennsylvania, for
several years, an acclimatized strain which is remarkably hardy
and will stand the winter as far north as New Jersey. They are
incomparably superior to the Winter or Turf Oats of Virginia,
they stool out strongly, are earlier, more vigorous and less
susceptible to rust; they have stiff straw, stand up well, and are
much more productive than Spring Oats. Sow in September, at
the rate of 1% bushels per acre, and sow deep. They will stand
much more severe weather when planted four inches deep than
near the surface. Price, 40c. per peck, $1.15 per bushel (32
Ibs.); 10-bushel lots and upwards, $1.10 per bushel.

mixed with water (stirring well) and applied as a liquid manure. If something
especially fine in vegetables or flowers is desired, two or three additional appli-

HENDERSON’S LAWN ENRICHER.

Can be Applied Spring, Summer or Fall.
Odorless—Quick-Acting.

A clean, portable and convenient lawn dress-
ing which we have found to be never-failing in
inducing a rapid and rich green growth. Itshould
be sown broadcast in the spring or fall. It is in
every way more desirable than manure, which is
so oftenfullof weed seeds. The use of ‘‘Henderson’s
Lawn Enricher’’ entirely does away with the old
practice of top-dressing lawns with stable manure,
which was so objectionable on account of un-
sightliness and disagreeable odors.

Quantity Required. A 10 Ib. package is
sufficient to go over an area of 300 square feet,
or for forming a new lawn, trom 1,000 to 1,500 Jbs. per acre, or half the quan-
tity for renovating an old one. Price, 5 lb. package, 25c.; 10 1b. package, 45c.;
25 Ib. bag, $1.00; 50 lb. bag, $1.75; 100 lb. bag, $3.25; 200 lb. bag, $6.00;
per ton of 2,000 Ibs., $50.00.

A safe, clean and
high-grade fertilizer,
free from disagreeable
odor, prepared especi-
ally for feeding plants
grownin pots. Itisa
wonderful invigorator,
producing luxuriant,
healthy growth, foliage
of rich texture and
larger and more brill-
iant flowers of improv-
ed substance. It con-
tains in a highly concentrated form all of the ingredients of plant food essential
to the highest development of plants and flowers. It is very soluble and is
readily assimilated, so that marked improvement is usually noticed in ten days’
time. It is fine and dry, clean and easy to apply, either sprinkled over the
surface of the soil as a top-dressing, or Jissolyed in water (stirring well).
Detailed directions on each package.

are pierced with holes, out of which the
leaves and flowers grow; thebulbsare
placed inside with the crown in the

proper soil. Itis so often difficult
for amateurs to procure the right
kind of potting soil that we have
concluded to furnish it to our
customers at practically cost to |
us, including packing. It will be |
the same that we use in ourexten- |
sive greenhouses. It is composed |
of sod and rotted manure, thor-
oughly turned and mixed several
times during the year it takes to
prepare it, when it is considered fit
to use. As needed we mix withit
peat, sand and pure raw ground
bone meal—it is then friable, rich,
and will cause plants to grow and
bloom luxuriantly.

Price, 25c. per peck bag, 75c. per bushel bag, $2.00 per barrel (purchaser to
pay freight).
