VeaETABL^ PLANTS. 



TAVO VERY PROFITABLE WINTER CROPS, 

 RHUBARB AND ASl'ARAGUS, can be easily 

 and quickly grown in the cellar or greenhouse 

 during the winter. As they sell for very high 

 prices, they can be very profitably grown even 

 on a small scale. Asparagus sells readily in 

 the winter at 50c per bunch of six stalks. I 

 can supply sections of 10-yr. asparagus roots. 

 These have very large roots and crowns and will 

 produce large stalks quickly. Directions for 

 growing sent free Avith each order. Asparagus 

 roots, 60c per 12, $2.50 per 100, $18.00 per 1000: 

 rhubarb roots, 00c per 12, $4.50 per 100, $35.00 

 per 1000.
