This is Mr. Livingston's latest introduction, and is claimed to be the nearest to perfection of any yet pro- duced for a main crop. The fruit is very large, of a bright scarlet color, very smooth, with occasionally a specimen slightly octagon shaped, ripening evenly to the stem with- out a crack ; exceedingly solid and firm fleshed, and above all not subject to rot. Per pkt., 15 cts.; 2 for 25 cts. HORSFORD'S PRELUDE TOMATO. A first class early variety. The plants are wonderfully prolific, bearing their fruit in large clusters. The fruit is nearly round, perfectly smooth, and of a bright crimson red, very solid, and quality equal to the best. The skin is firm and is perfectly free from rot. In earliness, it is fully up to the Little Gem. Market gardeners will find this an invaluable kind for forcing, as is does equally well under glass or in open air. Per pkt., 10 cts. ; oz., 40 cts.; \ lb., $ ; lb., YOSEMITE MAMMOTH WAX BUSH BEAN. A giant among beans. The pods frequently reaching a length of 8 to 10 inches, are of great thickness and solidity. They are of a rich golden yellow color and absolutely stringless, cooking tender and delicious. It is a wonder- fully prolific variety. Per pkt., 15 cts.; 2 pkts., 25 cts. FORDHOOK SQUASH. A new winter Squash of great merit. Of a handsome, bright yellow color outside, and straw-yellow within. The flesh is as dry as Pike's Peak, and much sweeter, making it the best in quality of all Winter Squashes. Placed in a cool, dry room, it keeps in perfect condition throughout the winter and spring. The stem is thin and hard, and also the roots, furnishing absolutely no food for the Squash borer, and consequently is perfectly free from their attacks. Per pkt., 10 cts.; oz., 20 EMPEROR FORGING LETTUCE. This proved one of the best in our trials last season. is
