Parsley 
This seed is very slow to germinate and usually two or three weeks will elapse after sowing before the plants 
make an appearance. To hasten it, soak a few hours in tepid water, and when it swells sow thickly in shallow 
drills 1 foot apart and cover lightly; thin out the plants to 3 or 4 inches apart in the row. It can be forwarded 
by starting in the hotbed in February and transplanting to the open ground later. Protect in coldframes or a 
light cellar for winter use. One ounce will sow 150 feet of drill.

snips, served similar or used in flavoring soup. Pkt. 5 cts., oz. 
15 cts., 24 lb. 30 cts., lb. $1.00. 
Parsnips 
As it is slow to germinate, plant only new seed and that liber¬ 
ally. Sow in April or early in May, in rows 12 to 15 inches apart; 
cover not more than 24 inch and press the earth firmly on the 
seed. When well up, thin the plants to 4 inches apart in the 
rows. Parsnips are improved by frost, therefore a part of the 
crop should be left to stand in the ground over the Winter. 
One ounce will sow about 200 feet of drill, 5 to 6 
pounds to 1 acre.
