SCHLEY. Of all the varieties of this lus- 

 cious and valuable nut family, the Schley

 thin paper-like shell. Trees 3 to 4 feet, 

 $1.25 each; trees 2 to 3 feet, $1.00 each. 



STUART. Probably the best known and 

 most valuable of all the Pecans. Ex- 

 tremely hardy and a strong grower. Nuts 

 of good size and well-filled; shell very 

 thin and easily opened. Trees 3 to 4 feet, 

 $1.25 each; trees 2 to 3 feet, $1.00 each.

 Walnuts and Pecans will he given

JAPAN CHESTNUT. Of dwarf growth — 

 not strictly speaking, a. tree; productive 

 and bears extremely young; nuts of im- 

 mense size; fair quality. Not so highly 

 flavored as the native American chestnut. 

 Price of 5 to 6 feet trees, $1.75 each; 4 to 

 5 feet trees, $1.25 each. 



BLACK WALNUT. The common Black Walnut is 

 very productive in nuts which are liked by many.

 70c each; 10 for $6.00; 3 to 4 feet, 50c each; 10 for

 favorite, having attractive bush, yielding abundant 

 crops of tasty round nuts. Bears young. Does 

 not grow large tree. 2 to 3 feet plants heavy, 60c 

 each; 10 for $5.00. 



BLACK WALNUT 



ENGLISH WALNUT 



ENGLISH WALNUT. Tree valuable for its fruit 

 and shade; the nuts are thin-shelled and equal to 

 any you can buy out of the stores; full-meated 

 kernels of delicious flavor; hardy and productive. 

 Independent fortunes will be made in growing 

 English Walnuts for the man or woman who now 

 plants an orchard of from 1 to 500 trees. The 

 investment will prove to be better than the pur- 

 chase of government bonds. Price for 3 to 4 feet 

 trees, $1.25 each; 10 for $10.00; trees 2 to 3 ieet, 

 $1.00 each; 10 for $9.00. 



Rhubarb 



MYATT'S LINNAEUS. Those who have never grown this variety, which is of superior quality, will hardly 

 recognize the old "Pie Plant." It is an early, tender variety, without being in the least tough or stringy, 

 with a mild sub-acid flavor.

Asparagus culture, where you have land that is adapted to growing it, 

 has proven to be one of the most profitable of the farm products. It 

 should be planted on loamy soil for best results. It does not require a 

 lot of attention or expense in cultivation. An asparagus bed will develop 

 in a surprisingly short time and will last for several years. 



We advise that you plant the rust-resistant varieties known as Wash- 

 ington, for they have proven the most profitable. In fact, the demand 

 for the older varieties is so negligible that we are only growing the 

 Pedigreed Washington, Martha Washington and Mary Washington. They 

 are the best for either home or commercial planting. A well cared for 

 asparagus bed of a few thousand plants can always be depended on to 

 bring you a good return and give you money when you most need it 

 during the early spring months. 



All Varieties 

 Strong 1-year roots. 

 Strong 2-year roots . 



WASHINGTON PEDIGREED. A new asparagus that is very rust- 

 resistant and is noted for its vigor, large size and productiveness. 

 Exceptionally good quality and very tender. 



MARTHA WASHINGTON. Of same hardy characteristics as the Wash- 

 ington Pedigreed, only considered an improvement of that variety. 

 Very rust-resistant. The stalks are large, dark green, with a heavy 

 purple overtone. The tips are tight and Arm and do not open until 

 well out of the ground. 



MARY WASHINGTON. This is considered the best of the Washington 

 kinds of asparagus. It starts early and produces a heavy crop of very 

 large, tender asparagus. Green in color and very good quality.
