GRIFFITH @. TURNER CO. 



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. 

 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.

RUTABAGAS 



OR SWEDES 



The Swede Turnips, or Rutabagas, 

 grow much larger in size, and are of 

 greater value for stock feeding than 

 ordinary turnips. Every farmer and 

 stock-raiser should grow Rutabagas 

 and Stock Beets for winter feeding. 



GRIFFITH & TURNER CO.'S

 variety for stock and fine for family

 lS large, both skin and flesh very 

 white, and is one of the best varieties 

 we have for table use. An excellent 

 keeper and a desirable sort for market 

 gardeners.

PURPLE-TOP 

 RUTABAGA. 



Frost Proof Cabbage 

 Plants 



Varieties: Early Jersey Wakefield, 

 Charleston Wakefield, Succession 

 and Early Flat Dutch. 



These plants are grown in the open 

 field during the fall and winter 

 months, which causes them to make 

 a slow, tough, hardy growth — so 

 hardy that the outer leaves turn to a 

 reddish brown. They can be shipped 

 to distant points without danger of 

 spoiling, and should be planted in the 

 open ground from four to five weeks 

 earlier than frame plants. 



They will stand a temperature of 

 10 to 15 degrees above zero without 

 injury. Will do very much better 

 planted early, as they will take root 

 and start to grow as soon as warm 

 weather sets in. 



Orders filled from January 1 until 

 April 1. We do not advise planting 

 later than this time. 



Price by mail, postpaid, 35c. per 

 100. By express, buyer paying ex- 

 press charges:
