SALSIFY, or OYSTER PLANT 
One Ounce for 50 Feet of Drill; 10 Pounds to an Acre. 
CULTURE. A fine vegetable, used the same as earrots or, having been 
boiled, made into cakes and fried like oysters, which they resemble in 
flavor. Cultivate the same as carrots and parsnips. It is hardy, can re— 
main in the ground all winter for early spring use, but should be taken 
up before it starts growing; take up a supply for use during the winter. 
Succeeds best in a light, well-enriched, mellow soil. Sow early in the 
spring in drills 15 ins. apart, 1 inch deep; thin to 6 inches in the rows.

of winter vegetables, and 
also one of the most nu-

entirely superseding the 
old type, as it produces 
roots nearly double the 
size and weight, and of 
equally good quality. Pkt.

trade. It easily outsells 
every other salsify, and 
outyields all other varie- 
Salsify, or Vegetable Oyster 
ties. Truckers who have tried the “Great Giant” say it is 
ideal. Pkt. 10 cts.; oz. 20 cts.; 4 Ib. 50 cts.; Ib. $1.75; 2-lb.
