BETTER CROPS FROM HARVEY S SEEDS 
You get the same high quality seed in these garden size packages as we furnish to the mar¬ 
ket gardener and florist, whose living depends upon the quality of seed he sows. 
ASPARAGUS 
(Ger.) Spargel (It.) Sparasio 
Sow as early in the 
Spring as the ground 
will admit of working, 
in rows a foot apart. 
Keep carefully hoed 
and free from weeds, 
and the plants will be 
in condition to set out 
the succeeding Spring. 
The soil for the per¬ 
manent beds should be 
thoroughly manured 
and trenched. Plant in 
rows three feet apart 
and one foot between 
the plants in the rows, and let the crown of 
the plant be covered about six inches deep. 
1 oz. of seed will produce about 500 plants.
