JERUSALEM ARTICHOKE. 



This tuber is well known and requires no further description. It is used for the 

 table, also for stock feed. It does better in a rich loam, and should be planted and cul- 

 tivated like potatoes. They yield very heavily. Price per bush. $2.50; per gal. 35c. 



SPANISH PEANUTS. 



An early and very prolific variety, which grows erect and does not spread on the 

 ground like other kinds. Can be cultivated entirely with a plow and are easily gathered, 

 as all the peas hang close to the roots, The stems when harvested make a good hay. The 

 fruit is smaller than the Virginia or Tennessee, but the plants yield heavier. A very 

 good feed for fattening hogs. 



Price, per lb., 15c; by mail, postpaid, 25c; per peck, 65c 



Have also the White Virginia and Reel Tennessee Peanuts in stock. They are larger 

 in size than the Spanish kinds. They are of a spreading habit, and are cultivated in

CHTJFAS. 



This nut is splendid for fattening hogs; it has a fine flavor. The nutsends up a single 

 spire so much like Coco it might deceive even an experienced eye at first appearance. 

 Around this spire a multitude of others form rapidly. At the foot of each spire is a nut 

 never more than two inches in the ground. When harvessing the crop you have only to 

 gather all the spires and give a slight pull which will bring the entire cluster up with 

 nine tenths of the nuts. Unlike the Coco, the Chufa will die out in two or three years, 

 if neglected or allowed to be choked with grass or weeds. Price, 15c per lb.; 81.25 

 per peck; £4 per bushel. pa
