Spring Spinach 



Improved 



Curled Long - Standing 



Bolgiano's Hollow Hub Parsnip. 



1106. Of a perfect, rich, attractive green color, 

 distinct from all other varieties, and easily recog- 

 nized. Its growth is abundant, and it will retain 

 a fresh, luxuriant appearance for three or four weeks after the most stubborn 

 seeding' varieties have become yellow and gone to seed. Your early Spring garden 

 will be incomplete without a generous sowing of Improved Curled Long Standing 

 Spinach. This Spinach combines the extremely curled leaf of our Bloomsdale 

 Curled Savoy Spinach and its own unequalled long-standing qualities, with a 

 beautiful green which will invariably draw customers your way and bring you 

 the top prices. Our oldest and most experienced customers pronounce this 

 Spinach the best they have ever grown for Spring, Summer, Fall, or the coldest 

 Winter. From our careful tests we learned its merits, before we put it in the 

 hands of the truckers ; they immediately realized its value and have from year 

 to year increased their orders until from 100 pounds five years ago, our annual 



sales now amount to many tons. Oz. 5c. 1/4 Lb. 10c. 1/2 Lb. 15c.

219. As we predicted several 

 years ago, when we first intro- 

 duced the Hollow Hub Parsnip, it 

 has taken the leading place among 

 Parsnips. Its merits alone have 

 brought it so prominently to the 

 front. No Parsnip seed everoffered 

 is grown as carefully as Hollow 

 Hub. Each individual root is 

 carefully selected by band and 

 critically examined ; if it does 

 not come up to the highest stand- 

 ard it is discarded. "HollowHub" 

 Parsnip is hollow crowned to a re- 

 markable degree, it has firm ten- 

 der flesh, a delicious delicate 

 flavor, almost entirely without 

 core. In growth it is small and 

 uniform. In fact Hollow Hub 

 Parsnip is as perfect as it is possi- 

 ble to produce by the most careful 

 selection and breeding. Grow the 

 best.it costs but little more, and it 

 pays so much better.

Bolgiano's Dcid 



Giant Trench Celeriac 



139. There is not a single item 

 of interest in the growing and 

 developing of seeds that we pass 

 by without most thoroughly in- 

 vestigating and testing to see if 

 there is something of value to our 

 customers. To prove our watch- 

 fulness, we are here introducing 

 the Giant French Celeriac. Many 

 thought the Celeriac which the 

 Market Gardeners have had for 

 years was good enough, but we are 

 always on the alert for something 

 better and are rewarded for our 

 pains by being able to offer this 

 splendid Celeriac. PKt. 10c.

"Great Giant" 

 Salsify. 



275. By far the largest, smooth- 

 est, most tender Salsify ever sold 

 to the trucker. Us delicious flavor 

 and attractive appearance bring 

 the buyers and hold their trade. 

 It sisily outsells every other Sal- 

 sify, lor "It is the Best." It out- 

 yields all other varieties. Truck- 

 ers who have tried the "Great 

 Giant" say it is ideal, it is the 

 Salsify they will always grow in 

 preference to all others, for they 

 readily sell all they bring to the 

 market at better prices and much 

 quicker than their neighbors. 

 Grow the best. It pays.
