ASPARAGUS LIKE THIS 



FromYour Garden the First Season 



TWO YEARS SAVED BY PLANTING 

 FOUR- YEAR-TRANSPLANTED ROOTS 



A great many people would grow their own Asparagus if it was not for 

 the two years of waiting. We eliminate this for the planter by cultivat- 

 ing and transplanting the roots till they are four years old, strong and 

 healthy. Downing, no doubt the highest authority, says: "Roots 

 of this age will produce fruit the same season planted." 



When we talk about tender Asparagus on your table this coming June, fresh from your 

 own garden, we know that your mouth not only waters, but that you look incredulous. 

 Too good to be true, you say? And yet it can be easily done if you plant some extra large 

 Asparagus roots, such as we have worked over and transplanted for the last four years 

 purposely ready to get immediate results. 



We offer for spring delivery, extra fine,* four-year-transplanted roots. Per 

 dozen, $1.00; per fifty, $3.50; per hundred, $7.00.

 catalog snows the kinds and varieties you can select. 



There are houses and cottages from one to ten rooms ;

Hodgson Houses are carefully designed and built to last. 

 Seasoned Oregon pine and red cedar are the materials.
