BOLGIANO'S NEW "GREAT GIANT" SALSIFY. 



BY far the largest, smoothest, most tender Salsify ever sold to the trucker. Its delicious flavor and at- 

 tractive appearance, brings the buyers and holds their trade. It easily outsells every other Salsify, 

 for "Itis the Best." It outyields all other varieties. One trucker, who tried the Great Giant," 

 said that it was ideal, it was the Salsify he would always grow in preference to all others, for he readily 

 sold all he had brought to market at abetter price and much quicker than his neighbors. Grow the best. 

 It pays. FKt. 10c, Oz. 15c, 2 Ozs. 25c, 1/4 Lb. 40c, 1/2 Lb. 60c, Lb. $1.00.

Culture or Salsify. — Sow early in Spring, in drills 15 inches apart; cover with fine soil, z l / 2 inches 

 deep, thin to 6 inches apart. As soil is strong and inclines to depth and lightness, it proportionately is 

 adapted to Salsify. As the leaves resemble grass, be careful they are not mistaken whilst weeding. 

 Salsify keeps over "Winter, like Parsnips. 



SPINACH. 



1 0z. for 100 feet of Drill; 

 10 to 12 Lbs. in Drills for an Acre. 

 5ptnat. Broadcast, 15 to 35 Lbs. per Acre. 



THIS IS AN IMPORTANT market gardener's crop, of easy culture. For Winter, Spring and Summer 

 use, sow either broadcast or in drills 1 foot apart and 1 inch deep, as early as the ground can be 

 worked, and every two weeks for a succession. For Winter and early Spring use, sow in Septem- 

 ber, in well-manured ground ; cover with straw on the approach of severe cold weather. The ground 

 cannot be too rich ; the stronger the ground the more delicate and succulent will be the leaves.
