Nursery stock Tennessee Memphis Catalogs; Vegetables Seeds Catalogs; Grasses Seeds Catalogs; Flowers Seeds Catalogs; Fruit Catalogs; Agricultural implements Catalogs. EMERALD LAWN GRASS IS THE BEST. POTATOES. Ten bushels cut tubers will plant an acre. Culture.—The Potato requires a rich, sandy loam with very liberal and clean culture; thoroughly decomposed manure is the best.

We offer the second crop seed of this celebrated variety, which experience has shown them to be far superior to the Northern grown stock in all respects. Crop is very short this season owing'to the extreme dry weather. Peck, 60c; bushel, $; barrel, $5 00.; «a£2S!
