PARSNIP 



1 oz. to 150 feet of drill; 4 lbs. per acre. 

 Sow the seed after the ground is warm 

 in well enriched soil that has previously 

 been thoroughly pulverized, placing the 

 seed about half an inch deep in rows fif- 

 teen to eighteen inches apart. Thin out 

 to four to six inches apart in the rows. 

 The roots are improved by leaving them 

 in the open ground over winter, taking 

 the precaution to draw a little soil over 

 the rows before hard frost sets in. 



CURRIE'S EARLY MARKET— This variety is very 

 early, fully a month earlier than Guernsey and only 

 half as large. The quality of this is excellent and is 

 free from strings. The flavor is more delicate than 

 the other varieties and will appeal to many people who 

 ordinarily do not care for Parsnips. Pkt., 10c; 1 oz., 

 15c; Y 4 lb. 40c.

 not as long as the old Hollow Crown but thicker and
