WE DELIVER TRANSPORTATION IN THE U. S. AND POSSESSIONS BY PARCEL POST OR EXPRESS AT OUR 
OPTION ALL THE VEGETABLE SEEDS LISTED 
ASPARAGUS ROOTS 
The Asparagus plant is slow to die down in 
the fall, so that the roots cannot safely be dug 
"until about November 1st. By this time the 
soil is so cool that the plants do not root read- 
ily, consequently many are winter killed. For 
this reason, we advise spring planting for any 
point north of Washington, D. C. (Ready in 
November for the South; in March and April 
for the North.) Our pamphlet "How to Grow 
Asparagus" sent post free to any address.
