The Parsnip will flourish 

 best and g:ive the longest, 

 largest and smoothest 

 roots in a very deep, rich 

 soil — one that has been 

 made rich from manure 

 the previous year. Fresh 

 manure makes the roots 

 siJMuwhat ill-shaped. 

 Sow as early in the spring 

 asthrtjround can l)e made 

 rcniiy, pretty thickly in 

 drills from li to In inches 

 apart, and about an inch 

 deep. Thin the plants to 

 5 or 6 inches apart. 



Hollow DrowD 

 orSHoar. 



The Hollow Crown is 

 superior in quality to all 

 other varieties, and the 

 preferred kind with Bal- 

 timore gardeners; the 

 roots are smooth, tender, 

 handsome shape and ear- 

 ly. We have the finest 

 stock of Hollow Crown 

 Parsnips that we know 

 of in this country.

PARSLEY 



Select rich soil ; sow the seed in drills one 

 foot apart, covering halt an inch deep. It 

 would be well to firm the soil with the foot' 

 after sowing the seed. As the seed is usual- 

 ly from 15 to 3.5 days in vegetating, it will be 

 necessary to sow early. Thin plants to four 

 inches apart when two 

 inches high. The beau- 

 ty of the plant may be 

 increased by several 

 successive transplant^ 

 ings. It is used princi- 

 pally for flavoring 

 soups, etc., and tor gar- 

 nishing in its natural 

 state.

PEAS. 



NOTICE.— In ordering Peas to be sent 

 by mail, please add 8 cents per pack- 

 age to pay postage. 

 The dwarf varieties should be liber- 

 ally manured; the tall sorts will run 

 too much to vine if heavily manured, it 

 being better to depend on the richness 

 of the land that was previously in a 

 good condition. Plant the dwarf in 

 rows two feet apart. Those varieties 

 attaining the height of from two to 

 three feet, in rows three feet apart, and 

 the rows of the tallest sort four feet 

 ai)art. Bushing the tall kind when six 

 inches high, on poles set every six or 

 eight feet, with twine fastened to tliem 

 about four inches apart will answer 

 finely. 



G.iT.Co.'s First Early 



( In sealed hags, thoroughly rogued 

 and hand ])icked.> 



This is the earliest of all, and the most 

 profitable early-market Pea, because of 

 Its early maturity, uniformity of 

 growth and ripening, and its produc- 

 tiveness. It ripens up so evenly as 

 only to require about two pickings to 

 secure the crop. It is grown from se- 

 lected stock, under our own supervis- 

 ion, and the greatest care is exercised to 

 keep it up to the highest standard of 

 quality. It is a great favorite with the 

 truckers, and is largely used by private 

 families. Our sales of this sort increase 

 annually.
