berries growing in a back-yard garden. Notice the hedge of 

 California Privet growing between the house and the garden. 

 There is much pleasure and profit in having even a small 

 garden in which to grow your own fruits and vegetables 

 so as to have them fresh just when you want them. 



ASPARAGUS 



This is the earliest and finest of the spring vege- 

 tables. It is very profitable to grow, both for home use 

 and market, as a bed once established will remain in good 

 condition for thirty years or more. Have ground in 

 good condition, and place plants 8 inches apart in the 

 row with rows 3 feet apart. Plant deep enough so that 

 the crowns are covered with from two to three inches of 

 mellow earth. Enrich and give dressing of 3 lbs. salt to 

 sq. yd. each spring. 



75 cents for 25; $2.00 for 100; $10.00 per 1000. 



GIANT ARGENTEUIL. A splendid early French variety of 

 lar^e. .size and green in color; excellent flavor. 



PALMETTO. Large, dark green variety of vigorous growth, 

 having pointed tips. 



CONOVER'S COLOSSAL. Large and rapid grower of excel- 

 lent quality; green in color. 



CURRANTS 



25 cents each; $2.00 for 10; $15.00 per 100. 



CHERRY (Red). Fruit of a very large size and very tart; 

 plant vigorous, but not as productive as some of the other 

 varieties. 



FAY'S PROLIFIC (Red). A cross between Cherry and Victoria. 

 Of large size, fine flavor, and claimed to be twice as prolific as 

 the Cherry. Highly recommended by those who have seen or 

 had experience with it. 



WILDER. A remarkable new variety both for table an«l mar- 

 ket; strong grower, enormously jiroductive; bunch and bi-rry 

 very large; bright red and of highest sub-aci.i (UKilitv. iii.ilciriLr 

 it unequalled for the table, cooking or m:nl<' 



LOGAN BERRY 



25 cent.s each; .^5.00 for 25; $15.00 per 100. 



This is not a Raspberry nor a Blackberry, but pos- 

 sesses properties of both of these fruits. The berries are 

 large and long, somewhat like certain varieties of the 

 blackberry, but are deep crimson in color, ricli, sprightly 

 and refreshing, but unlike any other fruit in flavor; lirm 

 in texture and attractive in appearance. The bush in 

 habit is somewhat like a blackberry, but more spread- 

 ing, with large leaves that resemble a purple cane rasp- 

 berry.
