TURNIP 



For early use, sow the small 

 sorts as soon as the ground can be 

 worked in the spring, in drills 14 

 inches apart, the Rutabagas 30 

 inches. As the seed is very fine, 

 it should be covered but slightly, 

 excepting in very dry weather. Select light, and, if possible, new 

 soil and manure with plaster and ashes or phosphates. Should the 

 young plants be troubled with insects, a sprinkling of slug shot will 

 be beneficial. For fall and winter use the early kinds should be 

 sown, from the middle of July to the middle of August, and the 

 Rutabagas from the middle of June to the first of July, using from 

 one to one and a half pounds of seed to the acre.

Second Crop Southern 

 Grown Seed Potatoes 



Are the product of the first planting 

 in the spring, planted again as soon 

 as dug, and the result from that 

 planting stored away in the fall for 

 next season's use. 



The advantage derived from second 

 seed over first crop is that they do 

 not sprout or shrivel, or lose any of 

 their vigor through the winter, hav- 

 ing been checked by frost before ma- 

 turity; they lie dormant, ready to 

 grow vigorously when planted. They 

 rarely send up more than one sprout; 

 this may divide into several br.anches. 

 The consequence is that all the 

 growth goes into the tubers, which 

 grow to full marketable size 12 to 15 

 days. earlier than ordinary seed. 



CBOWN JEWEL. — This i= a seed- 

 ling of the Early Ohio. Skin white, 

 with a flesh tint; meat white and 

 floury, cooking evenly through. A 

 very early bearer, and its keeping 

 qualities are equal to the best. Ask 

 for prices. 



EABLY BOSE. — Ask for prices. 



EABLY PUBITAN. — A splendid 

 early sort; fine, white and prolific, 

 producing large crops of handsome, 

 smooth tubers. Ask for prices. 



Potato prices are subject to change 

 without notice. Special prices quoted 

 on application. Owing to the hi.gh 

 price of barrels we are shipping pota- 

 toes in barrel sacks.
