Extra Early Vienna—A cur- ious vegetable, in appear- ance half-way between a Turnip and a Cabbage with a turnip-like swelling of the stems above the ground, - young and ten- der, lias a delicious Cauli- flower flavor, very appetiz- ing and pleasant. Very easily grown, requiring only such care as will make a Turnip or Cabbage do well. It is cooked much the same as Cauliflower and served with pepper, butter and salt. It is certainly most delicious. Pkt., 5c; 20c; $ EodiVe. Green Curled—Well known in fashionable restaurants un- der the name of Chicoree and particularly flue served with Lettuce with French dressing. Sow seed from middle of June to end of August. When wanted for use blanch the inside leaves by tying the outer leaves to- gether over the heart, and the plants will be ready for use in about one week after. Never tie up when the leaves are wet. as it induces decay. Pkt., 5c; 15c.; lb., $ DANDELION Ne^ Dapdelioi}. Improved Large Leaved—The old "greens" of our grand- mothers, now improved to large, turfty plants with wide, long leaves of superior quality. These make a very healthful, nutritious and pleasant food, that can be used very early in the season. This new strain is the largest, llnest and quickest growing variety yet known. It is a splendid vegetable which should oe found in every garden. Pkt., 5c; 50c.
