BALTIMORE EGG PLANT 



CULTURE — 



Sow the seed 

 in hot - beds 

 early in 

 March. When 

 three inches 

 high pot the 

 young plants, 

 using small 

 pots, and 

 plunge them 

 in the same 

 bed so that 

 the plants 

 will become 

 stocky. They 

 can be plant- 

 ed out from 

 the pots when 



the season becomes sufficiently warm in May or June, or they 

 can be transplanted into a second bed to make them strong 

 until the weather is warm enough to transplant about three 

 feet apart each way in a thoroughly-worked and well-en- 

 riched soil. Draw the earth up to the stems when about a 

 foot high. Egg Plant Seed will not vegetate freely without 

 a strong, uniform heat, and if the plants get the least chilled 

 in the early stages of growth they seldom recover. There- 

 fore, repeated sowings are sometimes necessary. 



BALTIMORE EGG PLANT — This is decidedly the best and 

 most profitable Egg Plant in cultivation. It is large, thorn- 

 less, of beautiful shape and handsome purple color. We have 

 never seen finer specimens of Egg Plant than those grown 

 from our seed. 



BLACK BEAUTY EGG PLANT — The earliest of all large 

 fruited Egg Plants and produces fruit quite as large as the 

 New York Purple in 10 days less time. The fruit is sym- 

 metrical in shape, of uniform size, of a dark rich purple 

 color, which does not fade or change to lighter color at blos- 

 som end like some other varieties. Just the variety for the 

 market gardener and trucker for early spring trade. 



NEW YORK IMPROVED LARGE PURPLE EGG PLANT — 

 This market garden variety has plants of strong growth, and 

 is very productive, producing plants of large size and fruits 

 of smooth, deep purple color until frost. 



KALE OR BORECOLE 



One Ounce of Seed Will Sow a Drill About 200 Feet. 



EXTRA CURLED NEW AMERICAN XALE 



The Kales are more hardy than cabbage, and make ex- 

 cellent greens for winter and spring use, and are improved 

 by frost. For early spring use, sow broadcast in August and 

 protect during winter. It must be sown in April or May for 

 later use. 



GRIFFITH & TURNER CO.'S NEW KALE— Larger, more 

 curled and longer-standing than any other Kale. Packet 10c, 

 >i lb. 30c, Lb., $1.00. 



EXTRA CURLED NEW AMERICAN KALE — This is an 

 extra curled, long-standing variety of a beautiful green color; 

 stands the winter well, and will stand longer in the spring 

 before going to seed than any other variety. 



DWARF GERMAN OR SIBERIAN XALE — Needs no de- 

 scription as it is a standard variety. 



DWARF CURLED NORFOLK OR SCOTCH KALE — Yel- 

 lowish-green foliage. Grows close to the ground and spread- 

 ing. Used largely in the south. 



BLUE DOUBLE CURLED SCOTCH KALE — A superior sort 

 with a fine Blue-greenish color, much better than Norfolk or 

 Scotch Kale. 



LEEK 



1 Oz. of Seed to 150 Feet of Row. 



Select good Onion soil, manure liber- 

 ally, plant in April in drills 6 to 8 inch- 

 es deep, and IS inches apart, and thin to 

 9 inches apart in the drill. Gradually 

 draw the earth around the plants until 

 the drills are filled level with the sur- 

 face. Draw for use in October. To be 

 used in soups or boiled as Asparagus. 



EXTRA LARGS MAMMOTH — A large 

 and strong plant; hardy. The best va- 

 riety for general culture. 



KOHLRABI 

 Improved White Vienna 



1 Oz. of Seed to 100 Feet of Row. 



Bulb light green, flesh white. Very 

 rapid in growth and of early maturitv. 

 Fine in texture and symmetrical in 

 form. 



LETTUCE 



BIG BOSTON 



BIG BOSTON — The same in color, shape and general ap- 

 pearance as the Boston Market, double the size. A most de- 

 sirable sort either for forcing in cold frames or planting in 

 open ground. Is popular with truckers, as it makes large, 

 solid, salable heads. Very highly recommended by those who 

 have tried it. 



BALTIMORE CABBAGE LETTUCE — The heads are large 

 and solid; color pretty light green, and very slow to seed: 

 in fact, it is just what the truckers and gardeners want. A 

 large trucker in New Jersey writes: "The Baltimore Cabbage 

 Lettuce I had of you was certainly very fine."
