INNISFALLEN GREENHOUSES, URBANA, WHITE EGG PLANT—"THE PEARL EGG PLANT. The Egg Plant should be grown in every garden, as it is one of the most delicious vegetables known. Sliced and fried in batter, served with raw tomatoes, it can well take the place of meat for supper in the Summer or Fall. THE "PEARL"—We never supposed that awhile egg plant could be developed to fully equal in size and quality the popular New York Improved Large Purple. But here it is. It comes from Georgia, and at Fordhook produced magnificent • eggs," as large and fine as we have ever seen of any variety, with an attractive pure white skin. The plants are remarkably productive, and the fruits are of finest quality, either baked or fried. Per pkt. lOcts.; oz. 45 cts. NEW ICEBERG LETTUCE. Quick Growing. Heads Hard and Handsome. Tender and True. There is no more handsome or more solid Cabbage Lettuce in cultivation—in fact, it is strikingly beautiful. The large curly leaves which cover the outside of the solid heads are of bright, light green. The unusual solidity of the heads is insured by the large, white main ribs of the leaves, each of which, curving strongly into the center, acts like a truss, making it impossible for the leaves to open outward and expose the center, which is constantly thoroughly blanched. It matters not whether in the early spring or the hottest days of summer, the leaves are always crisp and tender. Per pkt. 10 cts., oz. 40 cts. BURPEE'S MELROSE MELON. The Most Handsome and Decidedly the Best of all New Cantaloupes. Burpee's Melrose Melon is a very hardy, strong, and vigorous grower, the vines re- maining green longer than in any other variety. The melons are produced abundantly and very close to the hill—a feature of great value. The color is rich
