COOPER'S CHAMPION HOLLOW CROWN 
Our selection of this highly esteemed variety is surely the best for the private 
garden. We have discarded all the types with slim, long roots that invariably 
break in digging, and offer only a shapely heavy shouldered strain with lU greatest 
girth at the crown and gradually tapering to a small root. This is easily dug, 
and is suited to a greater variety of soils than any. To secure best results deep 
digging is essential and the soil should be free from stone and well cultivated.
