This grand new Pea is a recent introduction of that celebrated specialist, Mr. Henry Eckford, and is unquestionably one of the best he has produced. It is a second early wrinkled variety, growing about 1\ feet high, producing long, handsome, well- filled pods in great abundance. The Peas are of large size and exquisite flavor. It was one of the best in our trial grounds last summer. Per pkt., 10 cts. ; qt., 50 cts. (by mail, 65 cts.).. SWEET-NUT SQUASH. This is a decided improvement on all small round Squashes heretofore offered. The fact of its being borer proof insures a crop, and a thorough trial has proved it to be the sweetest and best flavored of all the late introductions. When prepared it possesses the taste of Sweet Potato, even before being sweet- ened ; having a soft outer shell, it is easily prepared ; outer color white, with occasional flakes of pale green. Per pkt., 10 cts.; oz., 40 cts. ASPARAGUS POLE BEAN. This is not by any means a new bean, but its excellent quali- I ties entitle it to special attention. It has round green pods, from eight to twelve inches long; very productive, aryi one of I the tenderest sorts grown. ' Per pkt., 10 cts.; pint, 30 cts. ; qt., 50 cts.
