General List of 
SELECT VEGETABLE SEEDS 
Colossal Asparagus 
ARTICHOKE 
Culture. — Deep, rich, sandy loam with plenty 
of well-rotted manure. Sow seed in May, and when 
large enough transplant into rows 3 or 4 feet apart 
and 2 feet apart in the rows. When cold weather 
sets in, bank the earth to the top, first cutting off 
and tying up the leaves so that they will occupy 
less space, and in the spring fork in a dressing of 
manure. The heads should be cut off and used as 
they get ready. If left to ripen on the plant they 
will exhaust it, and no more will be produced that 
season .
