THE NEW HAMPSHIRE EXPERIMENT STATION'S 



SELECTED LIST OF VEGETABLES 



FOR THE GARDEN 



F. WM. KANE 



The vegetables in the following list are recommended as being 

 from our experience the best varieties for general use. We 

 have grown large numbers of varieties each year of the differ- 

 ent kinds of vegetables, and it is not an easy matter to select 

 two or three and say that these are superior to others. The 

 great majority of people, however, are interested only in know- 

 ing which are the best two or three, and we are constantly 

 asked to recommend what we think is the best list for general 

 use. 



In order to give something definite, and believing that there 

 is a need for such information, we have gone over our results 

 from experimentation and offer in the following pages a short 

 list only of what we are willing to call the New Hampshire 

 Experiment Station list of vegetables for best success in market 

 gardening or the home garden. 



From a careful study and handling the following varieties are 

 giving us the best satisfaction. Under other circumstances we 

 might vary our list, but believe no one can make a mistake in 

 following the one herein recommended. 



The assistant horticulturist, Mr. H. F. Hall, was engaged in 

 market gardening before coming to the college, and as his ex- 

 perience with reference to markets, together with the results 

 derived from testing large numbers of varieties of each kind of 

 vegetables here at the experiment station, is embodied in the 

 following list, we believe it contains the information desired. 



The vegetables are arranged alphabetically or similarly to the 

 arrangement adopted by seed firms in their catalogues.
