A & M RELIABLE VEGETABLE SEEDS 
A & M Asparagus 
Ciilfiii*#* Drill the seed thinly in rows fifteen inches apart 
Vi^UlLUre during March or April. Thin out to two inches 
apart for strong plants. Exercise great care in preparing a field 
because it will last many years. 
Transplant during February setting the roots one foot apart, 
in furrows four feet apart. Carefully spread out to avoid mat¬ 
ting. The furrows should be ten or twelve inches deep and run 
North and South to get the sun on both sides of the rows. Cover 
the roots about three inches and as the plant grows throw 
the soil toward the plant. Each year when the berries are 
red, cut the plants close to the ground and burn, then dust 
the entire field with Anchor Brand sulphur, to destroy any 
germs of mildew, red spider or rust that may be there. Keep 
a mulch over the row with a harrow, but cultivate more deep¬ 
ly between the rows. Use stable manure liberally and hill up 
a little higher each year. Irrigate freely during the growing 
period. Three pounds of seed is sufficient to plant an acre.

MARKET GROWERS—NOTE! 
A & M strains of Vegetable Seeds are unsurpassed. 
Market growers please write for special quotations. 
Broccoli 
A & M St. Valentine fsSS'S? 
flower type of Broccoli is the same as for Cauliflower. For 
years we have been supplying commercial growers throughout 
Pacific Coast states with a special strain of seed which pro¬ 
duces the very finest Broccoli with a beautiful dark green fol¬ 
iage and it is equal to any Cauliflower for market purposes. It 
matures usually after the Late Pearl Cauliflower is finished 
which is generally the last of March and April and is therefore 
in demand for extra late Cauliflower. It stands both hot and 
cold weather conditions. Seed should be sown from July to Sep¬ 
tember 1. (Pkt. 5c) (oz. $1.50) ( 1/4 lb. $4.00) (lb. $15.00) postpaid. 
Italian Sprouting Broccoli g'm'VtLi'y,‘"wf"vi- 
riety is now in demand on the market. Sow in seed bed and 
transplant the same as for Cauliflower. For best results plant 
between July and October as the variety prefers cool weather. 
The plant forms a green cluster of buds which should be cut be¬ 
fore opening into yellow blossoms. After head is cut, several 
sprouts develop forming smaller heads of equal value to first. 
The vegetable is cooked and served in same manner as Aspar¬ 
agus. (Pkt. 5c) (oz. 65c) ( 1/4 lb. $2.00) (1 lb. $6.50) postpaid. 
Brussels Sprouts 
A & M Medium Dwarf The culture for Brussels 
X ■‘-'warr sprouts is the same as for 
cabbage. It is a very highly esteemed vegetable and . our strain 
of seed produces plants of dwarf, robust habit, and bearing 
in profusion the small compact heads. (Pkt. 5c) (oz. 30c)

Artichoke 
Sow any time except during 
hottest weather, when all 
seed beds require special care. Soil should 
be a free, inoist loam and seeds should be 
planted an inch deep. Plant out when six 
inches high in rows four feet apart each 
way. Save offsets from best plants for 
new supply, as artichokes never come 
true from seed; some will prove inferior. 
When planting seedlings, reject those 
with spiniest leaves.
