CHIVE5 Schnittlauch; 



CHIVES 



Also called Schnittlauch 



Chivss are perfectly 

 hardy perennial plants of 

 the onion type. They are 

 grown for their small 

 leaves, which are produc- 

 ed very early in the 

 spring, for giving a mild 

 onion flavor to various 

 dishes. The tops appear 

 early in the spring, and 

 can be shorn off close to 

 the ground as needed. 

 They can be grown also 

 in pots in a sunny win- 

 dow during the winter. 

 Easily raised from seed.

CHUFUS, or EARTH 

 ALMOND 



In sweetness and flavor 

 very much resembles a 

 cocoanut or almond, and 

 greatly liked by all chil- 

 dren. Vary in size from 

 a large pea to a hazelnut. 

 The nuts grow under and 

 verj' near the surface of 

 the ground and very easi- 

 ly reached; relished by 

 pigs or poultry. Plant in 

 April two inches apart in 

 rows 2^ feet apart. If 

 the seed is dry, soak well 

 before planting. Very 

 prolific. Pkt. Sc. ; M lb.

COLLARDS 



Collaxds 



GERMAN, Blaetter-Kohl; 

 FRENCH, Chou. 

 Georgia, Southern or Creole — 



A variety of cabbage known 

 in ditterent sections as "Cole," 

 "Colewort," or simple "Greens." 

 It is extensively used in the South. 

 I offer the true white, or green 

 stemmed sort so exclusively used 

 in the South. Forms a large loose 

 open head, or a mass of leaves 

 on tall stems. Freezing does not 

 injure, but rather improves their 

 quality. Sow thick In drills, in 

 nch ground, transplanting when 

 4 inches high and thin to 2 or 3 

 feet apart in the row when the 

 proper size. In the South sow 

 from January to May, and Aug- 

 ust to October. Pkt. 4c.; oz.

CRESS 



Mastruco: 



GERMAN, Kresse; FRENCH, Cresson; SPANISH, 

 SWEDISH; Krasse. 



New Upland Cress — Has the highly prized flavor of Water C ress . 

 It is so hardy as to be green nearly 

 the whole year, and is ready for use 

 before any other salad in spring. Its 

 usage should be more general, as it 

 is of as easy culture as spinach. It 

 is a perennial plant, and can be 

 grown for several years without re- 

 newal. Pkt. Sc. ; oz. 25c. 



Curled, or Pepper Grass — This 

 small salad is much used with let- 

 tuce to the flavor of which its warm, 

 pimgent taste makes a most agree- 

 able addition. Pkt. 3c.; oz. 6c.; 

 2 oz. I Oc. ; '4 lb. I Sc. ; • 4 lb. 25c. ; lb. 45c. 



True Water Cress — This is quite 

 distinct from the last, and only 

 thrives when its roots and stems are 

 submerged in water. It is one of the 

 most delicious of small .salads, and 

 should be planted wherever a suit- 

 able place can be found. Pkt. Sc.; 

 oz. 25c. ; 2 oz. 40c. ; 14 lb. 7Sc.

THE WONDERFUL COFFEE BERRY 



THE GREAT 



HEALTH DRINK 



Once Tried 



Always used 



All pronounce it better 

 than tlie genuine It is 

 certainly the best berry 

 to mix with other coffee 

 I ever saw. Half and 

 half will produce a drink 

 claimed by many to be 

 equal to a good cup of 

 Rio. It is very hardy, easi- 

 ly raised and most enor- 

 mously productive. You 

 can raise your own coffee 

 for. one cent a pound. 

 Full directions on every 

 packet. My seed is gen- 

 uine. Large pkt. Sc.; 'i lb.

 ster. 



Improved Large Leaf — An improved variety of Dandelion, very 

 early and largely cultivated for greens, or if blanched like celery 

 makes a fine and delicious salad. The roots when dried and roast- 

 ed are often employed as a substitute for coffee. Sow in May or 

 June and cultivate during the summer, and the following spring the 

 leaves will be fit to cut. Pkt. Sc. ; oz. 40c. 



Green Curled Endive 



ENDIVE, or WINTER LETTUCE

 ads. Kndive may be grown at any season of the year, but is more 

 generally u.sed late in the fall.

 green leaves, which blanch to a beautiful white, tender and crisp.

 iety ; in fact the whole plant is more compact. Pkt. 4c.; oz. lOc.i
