They are certainly a great wav ahead of the American varieties, u e have secured seed of the finest, large-fruited kinds, which we have every reason to believe will produce varieties far superior to those in cultivation in this country. Strawberries are easily grown from seed, and it is interesting to note the different shapes, sizes and quality of the seedlings when they begin to fruit. Large-Fruited VarietiesâMixed. Pkt., 10c.

Stew until tender, then cook exactly like oysters, with pep- per, cream and butter. Try a large bed of them this year. They are delightful. Large WhiteâA quick grow-j§|| er, very fine fl avor.
