VARIETIES. 



Two-Year Roots==Extra Strong. 



Donald's Elmira — This new asparagus has attracted much atten- 

 tion through New York State, where it was originated by Mr. A. 

 Donald, a prominent market gardener of Elmira. He has always 

 realized handsome prices, and although a large grower, was unable 

 to supply half the demand. The delicate green color is noticeable, 

 different from either the famous Barr's Philadelphia Mammoth or 

 Palmetto, while the stocks are more tender and succulent. Its mam- 

 moth size can be realized from the fact that in the whole crops oi 

 bunches of twelve stalks will average four pounds in weight. It 

 requires much less labor in cutting and bunching, thus lessening the 

 expense of marketing. 2-year roots, 75c. per dozen by mail; $1.00 

 per 100 by express ; $5.00 per 1000. 



Palmetto— Of southern origin; a variety of excellent quality. 

 Early, very large, very prolific and all who have used it pronounce 

 it ahead of any other. 2-year roots, 50c per dozen by mail; 75c. per 

 100 by express; $5. CO per 1000. 



Barr— Early and large, and when placed on the market its appear- 

 ance makes a demand for it, while others are at a drag. 40c. pel 

 dozen by mail; 75c. per 100 by express; $5.00 per 1000. 



Conover — Very large, and makes rapid growths; planted mostly 

 by market gardeners. Can be cut quite frequently, and brings high- 

 est price. 2-year roots, 40c. per dozen by mail; 75c. per 100 by 

 express; $5.00 per 1000.
