SALSIFY or Oyster Plant

Culture. Sow the seed in light, deep soil, early in the 
spring, in drills twelve inches apart and one inch deep, 
thinning out the young plants to four or five inches. 
The roots will be ready for use in October, when a 
supply should be taken up and stored, like carrots. 
Those remaining till spring should be dug up before 
commencing their growth. 
Mammoth Sandwich Island. We consider this the 
largest and most profitable salsify in cultivation. It is 
pure white in color and invaluable to market gar¬ 
deners. Pkt., .10; oz., .25; lb., .75 
TOMATO 
German,—Liebsapfel Spanish,—Tomate 
In this latitude to produce extra early tomatoes the 
seeds should be planted in the hotbed about the mid¬ 
dle of February, in drills five inches apart, and not 
over one-half inch deep. 
For ordinary plants, sow the seed early in March. 
When the plants are two inches high they should be 
transplanted three to four inches apart. The final 
transplanting to the open ground may be made the last 
of May, when the plants should be fine, large and 
stocky, and if sufficient soil is taken up with each 
plant, they will keep right on growing with no setback. 
Red Head. An early variety, bright red in color, 
round and smooth, uniform in size and with an excel¬ 
lent flavor. Pkt., .10; oz., .40 
Earliana. It is remarkable for its earliness, very 
large size, handsome shape and bright red color. Its 
solidity and fine qualities are equal to the best 
medium and late sorts.

Chalk’s Early Jewel. This is a very productive va¬ 
riety. Ripens nearly as early as Spark’s Earliana, 
but is more desirable for home use as the fruits are 
thicker through and more solid; borne in large clus¬ 
ters. Color bright scarlet and quality good.
