KALE (Batter-Kohl) 



CULTURE OF KALE. Kales are more hardy than cabbage 

 and make excellent greens for winter and spring use, being 

 improved by frost. Sow from May to June and cultivate same 

 as cabbage. One and one-half pounds to the acre. One ounce 

 will sow 200 feet drill. 



EXTRA DWARF GREEN CURLED SCOTCH, OR NOR- 

 FOLK KALE. This is one of the best kales for spring sow- 

 ing in the north, and is the principal sort grown in the south 

 for northern markets. It is hardy and will remain over win- 

 ter in any place where the temperature does not go below 

 zero. The habit is very dwarf and spreading," and will rarely 

 exceed 18 inches in height. The leaves are of dark green 

 color, beautifully curled and produced in great abundance. 

 Pkt., 5c; ounce, 10c; % lb., 20c; lb., 60c 



CURLED GERMAN KALE. Hardy; stands the frosts of 

 our severest winters, grows rapidly, dwarf habit and is beau- 

 tifully curled. Thousands of acres are sown in this section to 

 supply the market. Pkts., 5c; % lb., 10c; % lb., 15c; 

 lb., 25c 



BORE COLE, OR KALE. This is a most beautiful kale. 

 About Baltimore it is sown in May, and transplanted like cab- 

 bage to stand over winter. Around in Norfolk it is grown 

 largely broadcast, like the German Kale, for early shipment. 

 It is most desirable and will 

 continue to grow in favor. 

 Pkt., 5c; ounce, 10c; % lb., 

 30c; lb., $1.00. 



Norfolk Kale 



BOLGIANO'S CURLED 

 BEAUTY KALE. Extra 

 Curled Long Standing Kale. 

 In 1906 Mr. Bolgiano, on an 

 inspection trip through Long 

 Island, ran across a new Kale 

 of very decided merit. It 

 was more curled than the Long Standing and in every way more beautiful. It resembles 

 the Norfolk Kale, but does not need to be transplanted or planted in rows as does that 

 variety. It is the most beautiful Kale we ever saw. Price, 10c per ounce; 2 ounces, 15c; 

 y 2 lb., 40c; lb., 75c 



NEW VERY CURLY LONG-STANDING KALE. A beautiful curled and crimped 

 sort, of strong, vigorous habit; perfectly hardy, bright green color, and very attractive in 

 appearance. It is superior to all other sorts, and will stand longer without shooting to 

 seed than any other variety. Pkt., 5c; % lb., 10c; % lb., 15c; 1 lb., 25c. 



LEEK OLauck) 

 One ounce to sow a drill of 100 feet 



CULTURE OF LEEK. The leek is very hardy, of easy culture, and succeeds best in a 

 light soil. Sow early in April in drills 1 foot apart and 1 inch deep. When the plants are 6 to 

 S inches high, transplant in a deep, rich soil in rows 12 inches apart and 6 inches in the 

 rows, as deep as possible, so that the neck may be covered and blanched ; draw the earth 

 to them as they grow. The seed may also be sown in August or September, and the young 

 plants transplanted in the spring. 



EXTRA LARGE LEEK. It is the best. This mammoth leek is not to be compared 

 with the old kinds. It grows much larger and is very handsome. Take the extra large, as 

 the old sorts are not worth garden room. Pkts., 5 and 10c; oz., 15c; % lb., 50c; lb., $1.40. 



MUSTARD 



CULTURE. Sow very early in Spring, in drills 18 inches apart. Cover seed half inch 

 deep. Continue sowing about every 2 or 3 weeks, until Fall. In the South Mustard is sown 

 in the Fall and used early the following Spring for early greens. 



SOUTHERN GIANT CURLED. A crimped or frilled variety; produces large leaves; 

 makes a very fine salad; flavor is all that can be desired. Plant in Fall for early Spring 

 salad. A popular variety. Pkt., 5c; ounce, 10c; % lb., 15c; lb., 40c
