ASPARAGUS 
Asparagus usually sells at a good price, and, being ready for market in April and May, 
the inccme derived from it is especially appreciated at that time of the year. It is usually 
planted on light soil to ha\-e it early, though it can be easily grown on all good garden soils. 
The sprouts are not usually cut until the second or third year after planting, except to mow 
down the canes in the fall. The roots will give good crops for from 15 to 20 years, selling; 
at $100 to S200 per acre. Plant the roots m the spring or fall, from 4 to 6 inches deep, 
covering with only 3 inches of soil at first, and filling in the trenches as the plants grow. 
CONOVER'S COLOSSAL. Very large; makes rapid growth; planted mostly by markets 
gardeners; very productive 
BARRS MAMMOTH. The finest and most profitable of all. Stalks of immense size,, 
very bright and attractive, sweet and tender. Comes into cutting condition much earlier ■ 
than others. Very reliable and a sure money-getter. 
PALMETTO. Of southern origin; a variety of excellent quality; early, very large, 
very prolific; all who have used it pronounce it ahead of any other. 
RHUBARB 
RHUBARB, MYATT'S LINNAEUS. Those who have never grown this variety, which is 
of superior quality, will hardly recognize the old "Pie Plant." It is an early, tender 
variety, not in the least tough or stringy, with a mild, sub-acid flavor.
