PARSLEY (Feterselie) 



Sow in early Spring in rows 1 foot apart 

 and cover firmly *4 inch deep; thin out to 

 6 inches. The seed is slow and irregular in 

 sprouting- and may be hastened by soaking 

 it in warm water several hours before sow- 

 ing. We suggest planting a few quick- 

 growing seeds, (such as radishes) with 

 Parsley to mark the row. Plants may be 

 potted and taken indoors for Winter use. 



One ounce of seed will sow 200 feet of drill.

 curled leaves, rich dark erp^n. Vigorous.

 flavored than th* curled sorts. Pkt., 10c; 

 oz., 15c; 14 lb., 45c. 



Hamburg Parsnip-Booted. Grown for its 

 roots which are shaped like short, broad 

 parsnips and are used for flavoring. Pkt., 

 10c; oz., 20c; *4 lb., 45c. 



PARSNIPS (Fastinake) 



Parsnips require a deeply dug but not 

 necessarily rich soil. The largest and 

 smoothest roots are grown in light, mellow 

 soil, free from stones. Fresh manure causes 

 rough and mis-shapen roots. 



The seed should be sown as early as the 

 ground is fit — never later than mid-May. 

 Make the rows 1% feet apart and cover 

 the seed about % inch deep. Thin out the 

 plants to stand 4 to 5 inches apart. Give 

 frequent deep cultivation. The flavor of 

 Parsnips is improved by frost. Dig them 

 in late Fall or leave them in the ground to 

 be dug as needed during Winter. 

 One ounce of seed will sow 100 feet of row.

of excellent table quality. Pkt., 10c; oz.,

RHUBARB (Bhabarber) 



Sow in early Spring in rows 1% feet 

 apart, covering an inch deep. Thin out to 

 6 inches. In the Fall, transplant to deep, 

 rich soil, spacing the plants 3 to 5 feet 

 apart each way, and mulch well with ma- 

 nure. 



One ounce of seed will sow 150 feet of drill. 

 Victoria. The most popular variety. Large, 

 tender, juicy stalks. Pkt., 10c; oz., 25c; 

 lb., 80c. 



BHUBABB BOOTS 



The quickest way to have Rhubarb is to 

 plant clumps. If large clumps are planted, 

 some stalks may be pulled the first year. 

 Plant roots 3 to 5 feet apart in well ma- 

 nured ground, cultivate frequently and cut 

 off seed stalks as soon as they appear. 

 After the ground is frozen, mulch with 

 strawy manure. 



Our roots are strictly first quality from 

 transplanted seedings, all new roots and 

 not the old woody clumps so often offered.
