SEED NOVELTIES AND SPECIALTIES FOR 1906. STEWART’S HONEY DEW ST EARLY SWEET CORN IN THE WORLD. A genuine Sweet Corn, Extra-Karly, and larger than any other early variety. It is the most valuable early variety ever introduced and not only combines all the merits of the early varieties, but it is really superior to them all in size, quality and yield. It can be planted fully as early as the Adams, for the young plants withstand slight frosts, while the other varieties are tender, andthe seed will not rot if planted before the soil be¢omes warm. The stalks grow about 5 feet high and are very vigor- ous, generally bedring two well-developed ears to the stalk, large for an early Corm, Pktoc. Pe ise, 4Ot. 25c.

The fact that this is another new tomato, originating with the Livingston’s, of world-wide tomato fame, will be sufficient to warrant most growers of fine tomatoes to give it a liberal trial. It is of beautiful globe shape, with quite a percentage of elongated (stem to blossom) fruits, which permits of a greater number of slices being taken than with flat fruited sorts. Among the very first to ripen, although of large size, very smooth, firm fleshed, few seeds ripen evenly; color a beautiful glossy rose, tinged purple. Flavor very delicate and agreeable; splendid slicing variety. The fruit is borne on short jointed, branching plants in great abundance—tliterally loaded with fruit. A good general cropper, and one of the very best for greenhouse grow- ing or first early crop on stakes or trellis. An entirely distinct and flxed new sort. Every grower of Livingston’s New Globe, whether he grows for private or market purposes, will be pleased with the beautiful and attractive globe-shaped fruit. Pkt. 5c, Oz, 30ces DWARF STONE TOMATO. Double Size of Dwarf Champion. The strong, upright growth allows very close planting, at leasta half closereach way than the distance required for the ordinary vining varieties. In small gardens the plants may be set 18x24 inches apart each way, and yet produce anabundant crop. The shape of the fruit is perfect, with a good skin, which is free from cracks about the stem end. It is very solid, ripens evenly, and is of mostexcellent quality. The Dwarf Stone is fully double the size of Dwarf champion, andyet equally as ear- ~ ly. It is fully as prolific, and consequently vastly more productive. Pkt. 5c, Oz. 25c. NEW BEETS. STEWART’S TENNISBALL.

The difference in yield will many times pay the cost of new seed. At the price we offer potatoes. no one can afford to plant his own seed, if it has been grown in the same soil two years or more. Some of our patrons buy seed of us each year, rather than to plant that of their own growing, and the universal success with which our patrons have met by planting them assures us of the fact that our seed Potatos are unsur- passed for health, earliness, vigorous growth and large yields.

For Meadows and Pastures It is a well-ascertained fact that a thicker and more prolonged growth is produced by a mixture of many sorts of grasses than by only one ortwo. For every different kind and condition of soil there are grasses that are especially suitable. Some sorts do best on high ground and in dry weather. Others prefer plenty of moisture. Some mature so early, and others so late, that from the beginning of spring until winter | sets in there is no time when one species or another is not at its best. 15c Lb. 25 pounds to an acre.

LAWN FERTILIZER. Lawn grass is a very voracious feeder and will not thrive and hold its beautiful dark green color and velvety appearance unless it receives a sufficient supply of suit- able food. Because so few appreciate this fact is the reason there are so many poor, rusty-looking lawns Stable manure is unpleasantto handle, ill-looking and decided- ly odorous, and it is also full of waste material. It contains weed seeds which are obnoxious, and it often takes years to eradicate the weeds, causing an tnnecessary amont of labor. All these objections are obviated by the use of our Lawn Fertil- izer. If the lawn is in fair condition it is only necessary to rake off the dead leaves and grass in the early spring and scatter broadcast over its surface some of our Lawn Fertilizer with a little of our Lawn Seed over the thin spots, and the work is done. : DIRECTIONS FOR USE —The first application should be made early in the Spring, as soon as the frost is out of the ground, at the rate of 25 pounds of fertilizer to every 1,000 square feet of lawn, evenly distributed. For seeding down a new lawn scatter double the amount, say 50 pounds of fertilizer, broadcast on every 1,000 square feet, and rake it in thoroughly before sowing the seed. Lpb. 3c, 100 Lbs. $2.50.

In planting the seed, it should be put into the soil in very early Spring, to secure an early development, as early, if not earlier, than the planting of garden Peas. If sown in rows, the trenches to receive the seed should be marked out three or four inches deep and half filled with manure, and the seeds placed half an inch apart, the plants to be finally thinned to three inches apart. Planted in single rows, one ounce of Sweet Peas will seed twenty feet; but for effective purposes one Ounce should be allowed to every ten feet or even less.

Price as in Cut, $7.00, = t The Frame of this toolis high and long, therefore it runs steady and with excel- lent clearance of trash. The Horse Hoe standards carry the cultivator teeth as shown, | instead of using an additional pair of cultivator standards. ; The Horse Hoe Standards are of heavy solid steel and are attached tothe bars by means of malleable iron ratchet castings, thus making a very firm connectionfand | one capable of withstanding severe shocks without injury. The Ratchet Castings are constructed so as to give easy and numerous adjust- ments to the side hoes, not only sidewise, but in angle of pitch. This adjustment also permits of the side hoes being entirely reversed for hoeing, or for covering purposes, with point forward, as shown in cut, they can be quickly changed from side | to side. Although our No. 6 Horse Hoe, when used as a cultivator, expands to a/ width of 30 inches, and closes sufficiently for ordinary purposes, the hoe steels, if | necessary, can be brought into immediate contact with each other by placing the ratchet castings in a reversed position on the inside of the side bars. In this shape’ the tool is capable of doing excellent work, opening furrows for manure and other’ purposes. By the use of this Lever Expander the tool, as a cultivator, can be instantly © changed while in motion from the extreme width of 30 inches, to 14 inches as its nar- | rowest. Or, the castings of the Hoe Standards can be placed on the inside of the | frame and it can then be used as a cultivator as narrow as 11 inches. The Lever Wheel is also extremely simple, the lever handle being of steel, the castings malleable and is attached to the forward part of the Horse Hoe, the {two bolts of the hinge-plates passing through the malleable ratchet piece.

Lawn grass is a very voracious feeder and will not thrive and hold its beautiful dark green color and velvety appearance unless it receives a sufficient supply of suit- able food. Because so few appreciate this fact is the reason there are so many poor, rusty-looking lawns. Stable manure is unpleasant to handle, ill-looking and decided- ly odorous, and it is also full of waste material. It contains weed seeds which are obnoxious, and it often takes years to eradicate the weeds, causing an unnecessary amont of labor. All these objections are obviated by the use of our Lawn Fertil- izer. If the lawn is in faircondition it is only necessary to rake off the dead leaves and grass in the early spring and scatter broadcast over its surface some of our Lawn Fertilizer with a little of our Lawn Seed over the thin spots, and the work is done. DIRECTIONS FOR USE—The first application should be made early in the Spring, as soon as the frost is out of the ground, at the rate of 25 pounds of fertilizer to every 1,000 square feet of lawn, evenly distributed. For seeding down a new lawn scatter double the amount, say 50 pounds of fertilizer, broadcast on every 1,000 square feet. and rake it in thoroughly before sowing the seed. Lb. 3c, 100 Ibs. $2.50.
