IS OUR BEST ADVERTISEMENT
VERY year our wholesale department makes a substantial increase in
BRB sales over previous high marks. In fact, our total sales are increas-
ing more rapidly than our list of customers, which proves conclusively
that the average customer is sending us-larger and larger orders every year.
This is, in itself, a record of which we are naturally proud, because this stead-
ily increasing business is due to the confidence and good will of the many
seed dealers and florists who send us their orders. We shall strive to the ut-
most of our ability to carefully sustain this reputation by furnishing the best
quality seed and bulbs we are able to obtain. We realize that our entire suc-
cess is wrapped up in the success of our customers. Hence, every business in-
stinct prompts us to work for their welfare. We aim to test every stock,
whether grown on our own farms or coming to us from other seed growers.
We use every precaution to see that our wholesale customers get just as good
stocks as we furnish to our best market garden trade.
Our own seed growing operations have expanded astonishingly in the last
few years, so that we grow more acres of a general line of flowers than any
other concern in America except in California. We are specializing, also, on a
number of kinds of vegetable seeds for which there is an increasing demand in
the trade.
It is getting extremely difficult to get good stocks from abroad. But a great
many offers come from unreliable sources which we do not dare accept. All of
our imported stock comes from the same firms with whom we have had deal-
ings for many years. Because of abnormal conditions, a good many varieties of
flower seeds cost us a great deal more than formerly. We have left our prices
just as low as conditions will permit. We are ccrtain, however, that in the
long run the best is always the cheapest.
We especially urge our customers to send in their orders early, and not wait
until the goods are wanted. While we make it a rule to fill every order the
day of its arrival, the rush of late orders makes this work difficult. If our
customers send for their seeds early, they will give us the opportunity to han-
dle all of our trade easily, quickly and satisfactorily.
Finally, we extend to our numerous friends and customers cordial personal
greetings, and hope that this season may be profitable and satisfactory in every
way. anh

never exceeds 12 cents per pound. Compliance with this rule will avoid de-
lays in filling orders.
We call especial attention to our stocks of bulbs and plants listed on
pages 44 to 52 inclusive. We have the largest quantity of first-class quality
stocks in the history of this concern.

Boxes of Flower Seeds

THE Box oF FLOWER SEEDS contains $5.00 worth of retail papers; price to dealers $2.40;
also, $10.00 worth for $4.80. As these boxes are filled early in the season, before the rush of spring
orders begin, no changes can be made from the assortments we have put up.
SHIPPING
Purchasers will please send explicit shipping instructions with each order. Where
no such instructions are given we shall exercise our best judgment in the matter; but when goods
have been so delivered at the freight or express station, in Rochester, in first-class condition,
addressed as ordered, we disclaim all responsibility for any accident, damage, or delay en route.
When goods are desired sent by mail, postage must be added at the rate of 10 cents per pound, other-
wise we will deduct enough from the order to cover postage or add the postage to invoice as the
ease may require.
While we exercise great care to send out Seeds, Plants and Bulbs of the best types
and of high germination, we give no warranty, express or implied, as to description,
quality, productiveness, or any other matter, of any seeds, bulbs or plants we send
out, and we will not be in any way responsible forthe crop. If the purchaser does not
accept goods on these terms they are at once tobe returned and any payments made
in advance for same will be refunded.

Many of the leading cabbage
growers have used ourseed for years and pronounce it much superior to
any other strain in productiveness, solidity and long keeping qualities.
6 VICK’S WHOLESALE PRICE LIST
Vick’s Improved Danish Ballhead Cabbage
Of the many varieties of Cabbage introduced within the past few years none have
attained a greater popularity, or given such general satisfaction as Vick’s Improved
Danish Ballhead. The fame of this particular strain has become world wide. It
commands a higher price in the market than any other variety. It is remarkable
for the solidity of its head and long keeping qualities. The heads are of medium
size, with few outer leaves, admitting of close planting; exceedingly fine-grained,
hardiest of all, tender, crisp, solid, with no waste heart. Will average six pounds
per head. Our stock comes direct from the best growers in Denmark.

Vick’s Golden Dwarf Self-Blanching Celery
Here in Rochester we are located in the heart of one of the most famous celery
growing regions in the country. It is not an uncommon thing for a single grower te
ship from ten to twenty carloads of celery to New York, Philadelphia, Pittsburg and
other celery markets. The leading growers pronounce our Golden Dwarf Self-
Blanching to be superior to all other strains of this variety, in quality, yield and
salability. Dwarf, stocky, compact, rich golden yellow. Solid, tender, crisp, and
of exquisite flavor.

Vick’s Golden Nugget Corn. This extra fine variety was introduced by us in
1892. It is now the largest selling variety we catalogue, and steadily growing in pop-
ularity with our customers. Ears are twelve rowed, large and handsome. The color
is a rich creamy yellow. In flavor it is unusually sweet and delicious. As a vari-
ety it is one of the most productive, frequently having from two to four ears to the
stalk. In season follows a few days after the early varieties. Ears larger and
more prolific than Golden Bantam, tender amd unusually sweet. Ready for
market only a few days after the earliest.
CORN—SWEET or SUGAR.
Sweet Corn, if exposed to a low temperature in transit, even after being thoroughly
cured, will gather more or less moisture and sometimes spoil. To avoid this the corn
should be examined as soon as received and if necessary spread outina dry place.
Reports indicate the most disastrous crop shortage of Sweet Corn on record.
While our own farm grown stocks are better than the reported average, due to ex-
traordinary care and enormous expense, our stocks are inadequate for our regular
catalogue trade. To quote the following low prices, therefore, proves our desire to
share our limited supply with our regular trade for the greatest good of all. These
prices are subject to withdrawal or change at any moment without previous notice.

We take this space to explain that Vick’s
Lemon Cucumber is not the same as the
Vick’s
Loniow Garden Lemon, as many seedsmen appar-
Gacumber ently suppose. Vick’s Lemon Cucumber
is a genuine Cucumber of extra
good quality and commercialvalue,
which originated on our
own farm, and which we
have catalogued for a num-
ber of years. The Garden
Lemon is not a Cucumber
at all, but belongs to the
Gourd family.
Vick’s Abundance Cu-
cumber best for forcing out-
of-doors. See page 22 of

Vick’s Perfection White Spine
Unrivaled in shape, size, color and productiveness. Without doubt White Spine
and Long Green Cucumbers have larger sales than any other varieties. Now, there
isa good deal of difference in the quality of the various kinds of seed sold under
the above names. Our strains of these varieties have been carefully developed
through selections from year to year, until in our estimation the fruit from our seed
surpasses both in quality and yield any other strains.

Vick’s Early Scarlet Globe Radish
As a forcing Radish Vick’s Early Scarlet Globe has established a reputation as the
leading sort—the best in every way. It is handsome in form and color—a beautiful
oval and rich scarlet. The amount of its foliage is small compared with other vari-
eties, and small for the size of the Radish. The peculiar merit of this variety asa
forcing Radish is that it will bear the heat requisite for forcing without becoming
pithy or spongy. The flesh is crisp, tender, juicy and mild. It is equally as good
for open garden culture as for forcing, and therefore it commends itself equally to the
amateur and the market gardener. The dealer who sells this stock sells the best.
Our sales of this variety are rapidly increasing every year.

WEET WILLIAM, HOLBORN GLORY
We grow large quantities of Sweet William on our farms, saving the seed from
the most perfect type of plants. The strain we offer is superior to much of the stock
imported-from Europe.
FACTS ABOUT GRASS SEED MIXTURES
The most essential thing in making a lawn is good seed. On ordinary soil, well
fertilized with either pulverized sheep manure or stable litter, and with proper
moisture, good seed will grow. The price of lawn grass seed varies greatly accord-
ing to quality: The cheap seed offered consists mostly of chaff, and if used, the
planter will find his grass coming up in patches or very thin. If good seed is
planted it will come up thick and make a good permanent lawn. Our lawn mix-
tures are composed of the very highest grades of grasses, free from all weeds and
other impurities. Almost every seed in a bushel of twenty pounds will grow. Do
not be humbugged with cheap seed; buy the best and have a lawn that will last
indefinitely and be a permanent pleasure to you. .

New Early-Flowering Long- Season
Spencer Sweet Peas
Immense waved orchid-like flowers on long stems that bloom four
weeks earlier than the late Spencers, and continue to blossom for four
months. For forcing or open-ground culture.
Early Morning Star. Deep orange-scarlet or flame color in standard with rich
orange-pink wings. It doesnot burn in the open, and under glass will be mag-
nificent. The flowers are large and of best Spencer form, and are borne in threes
and fours in wonderful profusion. Packet of 15 seeds, 20 cents.
Early Song Bird. We are sure this will be the early pale pink for florists. - The
)
flower is the same color as the ‘‘ Florence Morse Spencer,” and has the same ex-
cellent form and features of “« Mrs. Hugh Dickson,” but is on white ground. The
placement of the flowers is splendid for packing, and the flowers are borne on
long stems in threes and fours. Packet of 25 seeds, 20 cents.
Early Melody. Deeper shade of pink than “ Early Song Bird,’ on white
ground, closely resembling ‘‘Countess Spencer’’ and near “ Hercules.’’ Can be
described as rose pink on white ground. Four large well-waved flowers are
borne on nearly every stem. Packet of 25 seeds, 20 cents.
Early Spring Maid. The color is light pink on cream ground, and blossoms
have the same splendid characteristics as ‘‘ Mrs. Hugh Dickson.” There is no
Early Spencer cream-pink as attractive as ‘“‘ Early Spring Maid.”
Packet of 25 seeds, 20 cents.
Early Snow Flake. Pure white. This is the best Early-Flowering Spencer we
have seen. The blossoms are very large and of the best waved Spencer form.
The flowers are borne in wonderful profusion on long stems. This will be in
great demand by all who grow for market. Packet of 15 seeds, 20 cents.
Early Heather Bell. This will be one of the most popular shades with all flor-
ists, as it will be so useful in making up for any occasion. Flowers are very large,
borne in fours and threes on stout stems. Color is a rich, pleasing mauve.
After standing in water becomes mauve lavender.
Packet of 25 seeds, 20 cents.

Elizabeth Dunbar. The New White Salvia.
Elizabeth Dunbar appeared as a chance seedling 1n the Rochester Parks in IgIo.
Since its first appearance it has been much improved from the original plant. The
corolla is pure white and the calyx cream white. The flower spikes are from six
to eight inches long. The individual flowers are one and three-fourths inches
long. The plants grow about two and one-half feet in height. It flowers freely
and blossoms abundantly throughout the summer, and comes true to seed. Potted
plants produce a profusion of flowers in the greenhouse in winter.

FERTILIZERS
PULVERIZED SHEEP MANURE
CONVENIENT. Being thoroughly dried and finely ground. Pulverized Sheep
Manure is in a convenient form for use on the lawn, in the garden, in the green-
house, or for potting soil. Most of the weight has been removed in drying.
NATURAL. A pure animal fertilizer, dried and pulverized. No chemical change
or loss of plant food occurs in drying and grinding. Adds organic matter to
the soil by nature’s own method.
INOFFENSIVE. Unequalled for the lawn. In effect it is a top dressing of stable
manure, without any unsightly appearance or offensive odor.
NO RISK. Contains no acids or chemicals to burn the sprouting seeds or roots of
plants. May safely be used wherever stable manure would be desirable, and
without inconvenience or discomfort.
The most satisfactory fertilizer for lawns.
We have used Pulverized Sheep Manure on our own farm quite extensively for
Field Crops, with excellent results. For this purpose we use a grain drill as for
commercial fertilizers.
In the Garden Pulverized Sheep Manure is convenient; it furnishes plant
food in the best form for growing plants of all kinds; and it adds organic matter or
humus, to the soil, thus keeping it in a good mechanical condition. Commercial
fertilizers cause the soil in time to become hard and dry.
