EVERYTHING FOR FARM AND GARDEN 
PARSNIP ' -•^"^ 
One ounce will sow about 150 feet of drill; 5 lbs. will sow one acre. 
CULTURE— Sow early in Spring in deeply dug or trenched ground, that has been enriched the previous fall in driUs 18 inches apart, thinning out to 6 or 8 
inches. In heavy clay soil that is wet and sticky in early spring, and that later is likely to get very hard, we have found it a good plan to sow seed in the fall, lo late 
that there is no chance of the seed germinating. In this way it starts very early. For exhibition purposes it is a good plan to make a line of holes, 1 to IH feet 
deep, with a pointed picket, filling these with a nch sandy compost; then sow a few seeds on too of each and you will have extraordinarily large smooth roots 
PARSNIP — •* Cooper's Champion Hollow Crown. 
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 its 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
