HIGH QUALITY VEGETABLE SEEDS

Salsify or Oyster Plant 



Mammoth Sandwich. 



Five to eight pounds to an acre. 



CULTURE. — Sow early in spring in drills 15 in- 

 ches apart; cover with fine soil 114 inches deep, thin 

 to 6 inches apart. As soil is strong and inclines to 

 depth and lightness, it proportionately is adapted 

 to Salsify. As the leaves resemble grass, be care- 

 ful they are not mistaken in weeding. Salsify keeps 

 over winter like parsnips. 



SANDWICH ISLAND MAMMOTH— The most 

 popular salsify in cultivation, and far superior to 

 the old varieties in size, weight and productiveness. 

 A strong grower, with large, long, white tapering 

 roots ; without tendency to branch. We have taken 

 great care in the selection of our seed stock so as 

 to produce not only good size, but the smoothest 

 roots possible, qualities that will be appreciated 

 both by market and private growers. (See illus- 

 tration.) Pkt. 10c, oz. 20c, ^ lb. 50c, lb. $1.75. 



Squash— Kurbis 



Bush sorts, 1 ounce for 50 hills. Running varie- 

 ties, 3 to 4 pounds, in hills, for an acre. 



CULTURE.— After the weather is settled and 

 warm, plant in hills 5 to 8 feet apart. Rich soil is 

 best, but if necessary, the hills alone may be en- 

 riched. 



EARLY WHITE BUSH SCALLOPED, or 

 PATTY PAN— The best for early market use. 

 Preferred for table. Pkt. 5c, oz. 15c, 34 lb. 30c, lb.

 desirable table sort. Pkt. 5c, oz. 15c,i J4 lb. 30c, lb. 

 $1.00. 



BENNING BUSH— Earlier than the White Bush; 

 color very light shade of green ; bush habit ; very 

 productive and attractive appearance. The im- 

 provement of the Benning Bush Squash over the old 

 sort is quite distinct, in that it is earlier and has a 

 very beautiful light shade of green color, in place 

 of the creamy white which the older sort has. 

 Pkt. 5c, oz. 20c, %. b. 50c, lb. $1.50.

MANN'S RESELECTED BLOOMSDALE SA-

 sponse to the urgent demand on the part of large 

 spinach growers for an improvement in the quality 

 of the regular commercial Bloomsdale grown in 

 Holland. The plants are large, heavy, uniform and 

 in every way especially reselected to match the ideal 

 Bloomsdale Savoy type, Pkg. 5c, oz. 10c, %. lb. 15c,

 dark green color, long-standing and hardy charac-

VIRGINIA SAVOY (Blight Resistant)— This new 

 spinach was originated by the Virginia Truck Ex- 

 periment Station. It is the result of years of scien- 

 tific work by the experiment station and has proved 

 a great success the past three years. It is a decided 

 improvement over Bloomsdale Savoy as its' blight- 

 proof qualities and correct habit of growth makes 

 it more valuable. Pkt. 5c, oz. 10c, 54 lb. 15c, lb. 30c.
