ASPARAGUS. 



Culture. — Seed of Asparagus should be sown as early in the spring'as the soil can 

 be worked into good condition, as the seed germinates best in cool, moist wheather. 

 Sow thinly in drills and when well started thin out to three inches apart. In the fall or 

 following spring transplant to permanent 'rows or beds, setting the plants one and one- 

 half feet apart each way. Soaking the seed for twenty-four hours in tepid or warm 

 water before sowing will greatly assist germination. A "packet ' contains about three 

 hundred seeds, and an ounce fifteen hundred. 



Use two ounces of seed to 100 feet of row in seed bed : two pounds will produce 

 enough roots to set one acre of land, one and a half feet in row, rows four feet a part, 

 or abojat eight thousand plants. One hundred plants will make a bed for an ordinary 



or aoQu 

 fa nniy.

BEETS. 



Culture. — Seeds should be sown thinly 

 in drills one-half to one inch in depth. 

 Make the first sowmg when the trees are 

 starting out in leaf and continue with addi- 

 tional plantings every three or four weeks 

 until August ist, so that a constant supply 

 of fresh, tender roots may be had through- 

 out the season. Owing to the spongy 

 character of beet seed, the sod covering 

 the seed should be packed firmly, eiiher 

 with the foot or roller, to insure proper 

 germination. When the young plants are 

 ECLIPSE BEET.
