ASPARAGUS 



Pedigreed Wasliington. The result of careful breeding by the U. S. De- 

 partment of Agriculture, Washington, D. C, with the object of eliminat- 

 ing rust. This strain was finally obtained by continued selection of 

 the best plants of Martha Washington, and produces large straight 

 shoots dark green in color with heavy overtone. The tips are tight 

 and firm and do not open out or begin to branch until well out of the 

 ground, making the finest kind of green asparagus. Makes a most at- 

 tractive bunch and is in popular demand in all markets and will soon 

 supersede the older varieties, which are always susceptible to rust.
