Most Profitable Vegetable for Market Gardeners 
and Home Use. Everybody receiving this catalog 
who owns or has a lease on any land should plant 
at least a hundred roots of this delicious vegetable. 
It yields the first returns in the spring when vege- 
tables are expensive and so highly relished. $500.00 
per Acre Profit is a common yield. Perfectly hardy 
and when once established lasts for years. For 
immediate returns we recommend purchasing our 
two-year-old thrifty roots setting in the spring and 
the following spring you can market a good crop 
and bigger ones each succeeding year. Where one 
needs several thousand roots and don't feel like 
investing in so many at once, it is sometimes advis- 
able to purchase part roots and part seed, sowing 
the seed in drills in early spring and in two years' 
time you will have thousands of roots at a very low 
cost. By all means start your bed this year. Don't 
put it off any longer. Our free culture book gives 
you full instructions how to grow Asparagus 
profita1)Iy. 
BONVALLET'S 
GIANT 
BONVALLET'S GIANT Asparagus is superior 
to all others. We have grown and thoroughly tested 
every known variety of Asparagus ljut — in the 
American climate at least — Bonvallet's Giant is the 
king of all Asparagus. It is superior in every way, 
larger, earlier, quicker in growth, more continuous 
in bearing and more uniform in size. The stalks 
average about an inch in diameter, the usual bunch 
of 14 shoots is 12"^ inches in circumference, and 
weighs aljout 3 pounds. It is delicious in flavor, 
extremely tender, and equally well adapted to all 
sections of the country. It is also less susceptible 
to disease, having yielded abundant crops where all 
other varieties have entirely succumbed. (See cut.)
