A GREAT SEED ESTABLISH.

SLIGO FOR EARLY TOMArOEs.

We are in receipt Of . Seed Cat
alogue for 1898, published by F.
B. Mills, Seedman, Rose Hill, N.
Y. Mr.. Mills has . very novel
idea in getting up his Catalogue.
It is very plain, and his idea is to
give his customers . very large
amount for their money.
With every order amounting to
81 90 or more he allows the Gus
toner to select so cents worth in
packets free, their own choice, thus
you see everyone gets 81 80 for
their 81 90.
Among the maLy premiums Of.
fered for Cabbage, Onions, POta-
toes, and Pansies, we might mem
ton the early tomatoes. $500 is
offered to any person growing .
ripe one in IS days or less from day
seed is sown, also $500 to person
growing = ripe Tomato in least
number Of days from day seed is
sown. $3.50 for next and $75 for
next.
He offers one OF the finest
lines Of Vegetable and Flower Seeds
that can be found, and prices are
very reasonable.
He offers 81, 500 to club raisers
for largest club orders and largest
number Of customers secured by
any one person.
Last year he paid Mrs. T. b.
Young, Rock City, ILL.,, $500 for
largest order. His Catalogue Is
very interesting and no one who
plants Seeds can afford TO do with
out 1t. It gives . birdseye view
