 It is Patriotic — It is Wise — To Make a Vegetable Qarden This Year 



Vegetable Gardening is a profitable and pleasurable occupation. There is no food in 



all the world that can compare with the fresh vegetables from your own garden 



Our Prices are the Lowest, Consistent with the Production of Quality Seeds 



The varieties of vegetable seeds offered, are the highest developments in their respective classes 

 and have, by rigid tests (as required by the Henderson Standard of Perfection), proven their worth 

 to occupy space in this catalog. Many of them, originated by us during the past ninety-four years, 

 are today household words throughout the nation. 



CULTURE — Asparagus may be grown in almost any soil or situation, 

 but special success is attained in thoroughly enriched, deeply dug sandy 

 loam. Beds cared for improve with age, lasting for many years. Aspar- 

 agus may be grown from seed, but as it should not be cut before it is three or four years old, time is saved 

 by buying and planting roots. For complete cultural instructions, send for pamphlet "Asparagus Culture." 



ASPARAGUS 



207 GIANT WASHINGTON (Seed) 



Developed under the auspices of the United States Dept. of Agriculture, this has become the most

 shoots are of giant size, very vigorous, straight and of superb quality. Color dark green tinged 

 with purple.
