OUR BEST TESTIMONIAL _ .

Is the rapid increase of our business, not only
in Florida, but every other Southern State. -

UR ORDERS increased during the months of January, February and March, 1893, over four hundred

per cent. Such an increase was unexpected,and we were not prepared forit. Our force worked

day and night, but it was impossible to keep up with the orders, as they poured in thousands upon thousands.
It naturally caused a delay in filling orders, which was no less vexatious to us than to our customers. We

have increased our facilities so that we can now handle all orders promptly.

A NEW FEATURE

Is the issue of a Fall Catalogue for Florida alone. We now have so many thousands ‘

of customers in other Southern States that a tull Catalogue is necessary in December.
We have decided to issue an abridged Catalogue for the Fall planting in Florida, and
issue an Annual Catalogue for our customers in all States. The Annual will be sent

to all Florida customers in December,

HASTINCS’ EXCELSIOR
REFUCEE.

The best green podded Bean for the trucker or for
home use. his bean is the same as the Improved
Round Pod Refugee, except that it is two weeks
earlier. During the past three years it has almost
entirely taken the place of the Round Pod Refugee.
A strong grower and very prolific bearer. Excellent
quality. The pods are well rounded out, and stand
shipment much better than the Valentine. Packet 10
cents; }4 pint 15 cents; pint 25 cents; quart 4o cents;
peck $1.25; bushel $4.75.

Extra Early Red Valentine—Same as the Improved
Red Valentine, except ten days earlier. Pods thick
and fleshy, and of fine quality. Is uniform in ripen-
ing, and is considered one of the most profitable for
the market gardener. Packet 10 cents; 4 pint 15
cents; pint 25 cents; quart 35 cents; 14 bushel $1.2:
bushel, $4.25. 7

New Union White VaJentine—Perhaps no greater
improvement in dwarf beans has ever been accom-
plished than in this variety. It originated in Jeffer-
son county, N. Y., with one of our largest bean grow-

ers, and, as its name implies, is a complete union of
all good qualities necessary to make a dwarf green-

od bean pertect. Itis much earlier and of adwarfer
habit than the old White Valentine, the pods being
rounder, smoother, plumper and more meaty, and en-
tirely stringless. Among many others it possesses
the peculiar and valuable quality of remaining ina
tender cooking condition longer than any other
green-podded variety. This, together with its Ex-
TREME pant ness SEE fit to pick in forty days
from time of germination—makes it an exceedingly
valuable sort tor spring or fall planting. The beans,
when ripe, are pure white, thus enabling the grower
to sell them as shelled beans at a profitable figure in
case he cannot sell them in the green state. Packet

10 cents; pint 25 cents; quart 45 cents; peck $1.50;
bushel $5.50.

NEW GOLDEN EYED WAX BEAN.

New Golden Eyed Wax—We recommend this
new strain most highly. A vigorous grower and
heavy bearer of clear golden yellow pods of good
quality. It is a great improvement on the Im-
proved Golden Wax, both for home use and ship-
ping, being remarkably free from rust. Is slightly
earlier than either Wardwell’s Kidney or Golden
Wax. Tryit. Packet 10 cents; 144 pint 15 cents;

after spading or plowing well. Sew in drills;
thin out to six inches. Sow from September first

Hastings’ Crimson King—When we offered
this beet last season we especially recom-
mended it for market gardeners on account of
its extreme earliness, it having proved the
earliest beet in cultivation, being ready for
use in six weeks from time of sowing. We
find by further tests that it is of fully as good
quality as Eclipse, and makes it valuable for
the home garden as well. No one should be
without this variety. Packet 10 cents; ounce

15 cents; 14 pound 35 cents; pound $1.00,

Hastings’ Improved Blood Turnip Beet—An
improyement by our grower of the Early
Blood Turnip Beet; color a deep blood red;

strain. All who garden for market should
try this new strain. Packet 5 cents; ounce 10

CAULIFLOWER.

Hastings’ Cauliflower Seed is from the most reliable
growers in the United States and Europe. We farnish
the grower the highest grade of Seed and we do not
charge from 50 cents to $1.00 per ounce extra for
Red, Yellow or Blue Seals.

CuLturRE—Does best in a rich, well-tilled soil; will
do in a well-manured, sandy soil. Sow in seed bed
in September, October and November, Transplant
when three to four inches high. Give plenty of water
n dry weather. Keep wet and hoe thoroughly and
often. Heads may be blanched extra white by tying
the leaves over the top closely. Shonld be more gen-
erally cultivated in the South than it now is.

Thorburn’s Gilt Edge—Introduced by us to the
Southern growers last year. This hasbeen thorough-
ly tested hy thousands of our customers the past year,
and not a single complaint have we had. Itis the
largest, most perfect and surest header of any variety
ever offered, and in quality it is unexcelled. One
specimen sent to our store weighed 7 pounds and $8
ounces, without the leaves, It is of the Snowball
type, but is much larger and will stand Jonger with-
out decay than any other. Packet a5 cents; 14 ounce

HASTINGS’ SURE CROP CABBAGE.

Hastings’ Long Island Wakefield (SELECT STRAIN)
— Introduced the same season as Sure Crop, and is
taking the lead of all pointed and oval cabbages, just
as Sure Crop leads all flat varieties. This is a cross
between the Selected Early Jersey Wakefield and
Early Dwarf Flat Dutch, giving increased size with
the same earliness. Of all the Wakefields ever
offered, this is the most valuable, either for shipment
orhomeuse. If you are growing pointed cabbages
you cannot afford to grow any variety other than this,
No pointed cabbage has ever met with such favor be-
fore. So popular has it become that the principal
seedsmen of the North have put on the market the

past two years inferior strains under the name o(¥

“Charleston Wakefield,” “Large Early Wakefield,”
etc., hoping to détract from the growing popularity of
our Long Island Wakefield. We invite comparison.

Not one word of complaint have we had from it &
while hundreds have expressed their satisfaction §

packet 10 cents; 144 ounce 20 cents; ounce 30 cents;

cabbage, and is without a rival. The experience ot
all truckers and market gardeners who have tested it
goes to corroborate our statement that it is the best
and most profitable variety ever offered in the South.
It is the earliest and surest large, flat, round cabbage
on record, and its quality is excellent, being tender,

crisp and solid. Where it is rightly cared for, scarce-
ly a seed will fail to form ahead. Inan experiment
it produced heads ready for market in forty days
from the time of transplanting. Heads average eight
to nine pounds in weight. Large packet 10 cents; %
ounce 20 cents; ounce 30 cents; 14 pound $1.00; pound
$3.50.

Hastings’ Centennial Flat Duteh—This large strain
of the Flat Dutch is the only cabbage that has resisted
the repeated and heavy frosts in the northern part of
Florida the past season. It is a comparatively late
variety. During all the cold weather of the season
of 1890-91, it grew vigorously, scarcely a leaf wilting.
This is the variety to plant on any lands subject to
severe frosts. Grows from twelve to twenty pounds,
according to soil and culture, and is a good reliable
header. Wecontrol the stock of this variety, and it

can be obtained of us only. Packet 10 cents; 4% ounce
15 cents; ounce 25 cents; 14 pound 85cents; pound $3.00.

GENUINE SUREHEAD CABBAGE,

Genuine Surehead—This popular Cabbage is rightly
named Surehead, and never fails to make a remarka-
bly fine, solid, large head, with few outer leaves, as
shown in our illustration. It originated some years
since with a practical market gardener, by crossing
the Flat Dutch and Drumhead varieties, and has al-
ways brought the highest price in market. It 1s a
strong, vigorous grower, ripening late for a main
crop, and very uniform in size and color. Our supply
is grown from the original seed; none better to be
had at any price. Packet 5 cents; ounce 25 cents; 14

pound 75 cents; pound $2.50.

Henderson’s Suecession—A large, flat cabbage, in-
troduced in 1888. About ten days later than Early
Summer, but is nearly double the size. A good strain
and a reliable header, but not as compact in growth
of head as Sure Crop, Our seed is grown trom origi-
nal stock Packet 5 cents; 14 ounce 15 cents; ounce

25 cents; 4 pound 75 cents; pound $2.50.

EMERALD KING.

Hastings’ Emerald King—During the fall of 1891 we
distributed several hundred packets of this variety
without having tested it ourselves. We were sur-
prised at the exceedingly favorable reports received
from it. Having but a small amount of seed we
offered it in packets only under the name of No. 300.
We again have but a limited quantity of seed to offer,
but we would advise every cabbage grower in the
South to try this superb variety this year. It has been
thoroughly tested, and we can recommend it fully.
It is an early, flat cabbage that can be grown either
for early or late crop. It is of good size, heads aver-
aging from seven to eight pounds; grows very uni-
formly; is a sure header, and does not burn or blister
in the dryest and hottest weather. It is a splendid
variety to withstand droughts. It is’of a dark, glossy
green color, and is pre-eminently a shipping cabbage
for the Southern trucker, holding its color and fresh
appearance long after other standard varieties wilt.
Packet 10 cents; 4 ounce 20 cents; ounce 35 cents;

V4 pound $1.00; pound $3.50.

Jarly Deep-head—The heads of this cabbage grow
to a large size, and, as its name signifies, are deeper
through than ordinary stocks of second early cab-
bages. It heads up firm, and we find it a valuable
variety for the Southern shipper. Packet 5 cents;

ounce 25 cents; 14 pound 75 cents; pound $2.50.

All-Head Early—Introduced in 1891. It is very early,
of good size and quality, and a sure header. Itis
well named “All-Head.” as it is almost free from
loose leaves. It is a week earlier than Henderson’s
Early Summer, and a better shipper. Packet 5 cents;

ounce 25 cents; 14 pound 75 cents; pound $2.50.

WHITE, SPSS

CUCUMBER

The Hastings White Spine—The finest early strain
of White Spine ever grown. We have in this new
strain of White Spine a cucumber that eclipses all
others for shipping purposes. The steady increase in
the sale of the Emerald Green White Spine shows how
readily the planter takes hold of any real improve-
ment. The Hzsting White Spine is by far the best
of all White Spine strains, as can easily be seen when
grown side by side. The fruit is of large size and
is immensely productive. This produces no small or
imperfect cucumbers, The skin is hard and of a deep
green color, which it holds until fully matured. Is
crisp and tender, and retains its fresh, plump appear-
ance long after being gathered. Itisnearly one week
earlier than any other White Spine variety. It is
equally valuable for home use. Large trial packet
io cents; ounce 15 cents; 144 pound 30 cents; pound
$1,00;. ten pounds, not prepaid, $8.00,

CELERY.

CuL_truRE—The seed bed may bein any moist place,
Cover the seed lightly in the bed in May, June, Au-
gust and September. Transplant when six inches
high. Dig a trench a foot deep and
put in four or five inches of well-rotted
manure; cover that with good soil or
a light, sandy loam, well mixed with
muck or leaf mold; transplant the
plants from the seed bed into rows
three feet apart—plants six inches
apartin the rows. At the end of five
or six weeks begin drawing the soil
up to the leaves, packing it firmly.
Keep it well banked up if you want
tender, well-bleached celery. Water
freely with soap-suds, liquid manure
or water, being careful not to pour in
on the plants.

There are but two varieties that
have proved a success for general
planting in the South: Mexican Solid
and Savannah Market. In certain lo-
calities Boston Market, Crawtord’s
Half Dwart and Golden Self-Blanch-
ing have done well, but we do not ad-
vise a general planting except of
Mexican Solid and Savannah Mar-
ket.

Mexiean Solid—Stocks rounded, crisp and solid;
growth large. A most reliable strain. No celery
can compare with its ability to withstand heat. When
ready for market the plants are plump and do not wilt
as soon as most sorts. Its flavor is tully equal to that
of celery grown inthe Kalamazoo (Mich.) celery dis-
trict, having the rich nutty flavor so desirable in
celery. Packet 10 cents; ounce 30 cents; 144 pound
$1.00; pound $3.00.

Savannah Market—Introduced by usin 1889. While
not as highly flavored as the Mexican Solid, it is bet-
ter adapted for growth on poor and light soils, being
a much stronger grower. Packet 10 cents; ounce 30
cents; 14 pound $1.00; pound $3.00.

The Pure Stock of Mexican Solid and Savannah
Market Celery can be obtained of us only.

LETTUCE.

CuLTURE—May be sown during the whole year, but
takes considerable trouble to grow it during the hot
months. The richer and better the ground, the larger
the heads will be. In Florida, sow broadcast and
transplant when large enough to ten inches apart in

MEXICAN SOLID CELERY.

the row and rows a foot apart. It requires a rich,
moist soil, clean cultivation and plenty of water.
This will give quick growth, on which its appearance,
flavor and tenderness depend.

Lettuce for northern shipment should be sown dur-
ing November and December.

Hastings’ Drumhead White Cabbage—A_ favorite
with our customers. Large, solid heads weighing
two or three pounds. Leaves outside are dark green,
inside almost white. Crisp and tender and always
entirely free from bitterness. Has but little tendency
to runto seed. The best variety to grow for shipping

believe it to be unsurpassed, Itis extremely hardy,

CHEAP ONION SEED !S DEAR AT ANY PRICE.

VERY IMPORTANT TO ONION GROWERS:

and there is no crop that depends more on the quality and genuineness of the seed.

The Bermuda Onion is one of the most
important of Southern vegetable crops,
An ever-increasing de-

mand for the true Bermuda seed has led to wholesale fraud in the sale of it by certain reputable (?) New York

and Philadelphia seedsmen, who offer it somewhat as follows:

“Bermuda Onion Seed. We again have pleas-

ure in offering new crop seed of the true Bermuda Onion, the seed of which is often difficult to obtain,” then

offering it at $2.25 and $2.50 per pound. The
genuine cannot be sold at that price. The
seed offered is either Italian or California
grown, and can be bought in the wholesale
seed markets at go cents per pound.

It is a well known fact to those in the
seed business that it is next to impossible to

IMPORTED ONION SEED ONLY.

It is a well-established fact that the northern or American grown onion seed wil] not produce bulbs in the

South. We offer for sale only genuine imported seed of all varieties of onions catalogued by us.
grown seed is offered by northern seedsmen at a lower price, but they will not produce the bulbs

WANT GOOD RESULTS, USE HASTINGS’ SEEDS.

ONION SETS.

The cheapest and best way to raise onions is from
good seed. There are many, however, who prefer
the sets.

Bermuda Red Sets ‘Florida grown)—We can only
offer the Bermuda Red Sets this year, grown trom
our genuine seed near Interlachen. If planted in
September they form large fully-matured bulbs by

White Montpelier Onion Sets (Green Onions for
First Early Bunching)—They are of a pure silvery
white color, enormously productive, frequently pro-
ducing as many as twenty bulbs in a single cluster,
from a single bulb planted; excellent quality and size
for bunching green, or can be ripened for use as

grown much more economically than from seed.
Their keeping qualities are remarkable, having kept
perfectly sound for a year, but their most important
quality is extreme earliness, being ready for market
from three to four weeks ahead of other onion sets.
Our grower says: ‘‘They cannot be beaten for earli-
ness; they are matured before the weeds and grass
can cover them ”

The largest of the sets allowed to grow through
summer make an onion of fair size, which divides
when ripening in the fall, multiplying liberally for
another season. Our illustration is made accurately
from nature. Stock very limited. Pint 25 cents; quart
45 cents; 14 bushel $2.00, not prepaid.

PEAS.

Our stock of peas has been carefully grown and
will be found to be just as represented.

CuLTURE—For early peas a moderately rich and
dry loam is the best; for the later sorts a heavier soilis
preferable.
heavy growth of vines, hence the ground for the
early crop ought to have been manured the previous
autumn. If this has not been done, then apply well-
rotted manure at the time of sowing. Sow in drills
about two or three inches deep. Let there be two
rows, ten inches apart, three to four feet between the

four to six inches deep. It will take them longer to.

this way.

Bliss’ Everbearing—Height of vine eighteen inches
to two feet. Pod three to four inches long, each pod
containing six to eight wrinkled peas. Size of peas
very large, frequently half an inch tn diameter; qual-
ity very fine. Its habit of growth 1s of a peculiar
branching character, forming as many as ten stalks
from a single root stalk, The individual branches
are of extraerdinary strength and substance, so that
when hilled up properly they stand up well without
brushing. For continuance of bearing this variety is.
notable—a characteristic which gives it especial value
for late summer and autumn use, After repeated

pickings the vines continue to be
covered with blossoms and buds,
developing to maturity in turn. The
quality is the best of any pea known.
A variety that should be in every
garden. Packet 10 cents; 14 pint 15
cents; pint 25 cents; quart 45 cents;
peck $1.25; bushel $4.s0.

John L.—This is the earliest pea
ever offered. It matures earlier
than any extra earlier variety,such as
First of All, Morning Star, Daniel
O’Rourke, etc. Can be planted any
month except July and August. Is
very hardy and the best for the
trucker, being the most prolific of
any early variety. This has become
very popularin the South; last season
our sales of John L. were more than
our sales of all other varieties com-
bined. One of our Orange Co., Fla.,
customers wrote us that from 14 bushel of John L.
planted by him he got 1814 bushels of green peas at
the first picking. We have a large supply now, and
can offer it at a reduced price. Packet 10 cents; 4
pint 15 cents; pint 25 cents; quart 4ocents; peck $1.25;
bushel $4.50; two bushels $8.00.

Hastings’ Home Delight—The original strain ot
this heavy bearer was introduced by us in 1889. Since
that time it has been improved by selection until it is
now the best and earliest bearer of all the heavy
croppers. For home use and near by market it is
invaluable. A strong grower, withstanding the
effects of frost better than any other. The heaviest
bearer we know of, and yet of such dwarf growth as
to not require bush or staking, if planted in double
rows eightinches apart. Packet 10 cents; 4 pint 15
cents; pint 25 cents; quart 45 cents; peck $1.40;
bushel $5.00.

Southern Queen—Introduced by us last year. The
most valuable introduction since Bliss’ Everbearing
Pea was placed on the market. The illustration
shows the natural average size of the pods. Is a
strong, sturdy grower, two feet high, branching sim-

ilar to the Bliss Everbearing. In quality and pro-
ductiveness it is fully equal to that famous variety,
and has the valuable quality of bearing at the least
one month longer, making it a continuous bearer for
three and one-half months. This variety should be
in every garden. Packet 10 cents; 14 pint 20 cents;
pint 30 cents; quart socents; peck $2.00,

REDFIELD BEAUTY TOMATO.

REDFIELD Beaurtry.—F or five years this splendid variety has been grown by thousands of our custom-
€rs in all the Southern States. In every way it has proven superior to any tomato ever offered in the South.
Its vigorous growth, heavy and long-bearing qualities, its hardiness, its perfect-shaped fruit and freedom from
rotunder the most trying circumstances of growth has made ita favorite wherever planted. Whileitisso well
known, we again give the abridged description of last year’s CataJogue: “Of glossy, crimson color, with a
slight tinge of purple. Skin thick and tough. Grows in clusters of tour or five fruits, Retains its large size
till all are picked. Its shape is almost perfect, and it cannot be excelled for toughness of skin and solidity.
For shipping and early market it can be picked green, and it will ripen up nicely, presenting a handsome ap-
pearance. The best in every respect for shipping or for home use.’? Price, large packet, 10 cents; one-halt
ounce, 15 cents; ounce, 25 cents; one-fourth pound, 85 cents; pound, $3.00.

WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS SAY.
