MUSTARD— (Senf) 
The green leaves are used as a salad or boiled like spinach. Sow a half inch deep in rows eighteen 
inches apart, every few weeks in the summer if a continuous supply is wanted. The seeds of both kinds 
listed are largely used in pickles and the white is the mustard of commerce.

MUSHROOM—( Erdschwamm ) 
The chief essential in raising Mushrooms indoors is a controlled temperature. The ideal tempera¬ 
ture is 65 deg. Fahr. but it should not vary more than 5 degrees to attain the greatest success. A 
pamphlet dealing at length with the growing of Mushrooms will be furnished with an order for Spawn, 
or for 5c in stamps or coin. 
Pure Culture Spawn. Direct Bricks. Best brick spawn on the market, per brick 40c, 3 for 
$1.00, 10 bricks $3.25. For larger quantities please write for price. 
Lambert Pure Culture Spawn. In quart milk bottles. In this form the spawn is of the 
highest potency. Per quart, $1.50, 2 quarts $2.50, carton of a dozen quarts for $12.00. 
ONION— ( Zwiebel ) 
To grow large onions from seed, it is necessary to have light, very rich soil, seed adapted to this 
climate and patience to keep the weeds out. Sow thinly, one-fourth inch deep in rows a suitable dis¬ 
tance apart. Grown from setts, onions need quite as much care but more are used for bunching before 
they form bulbs and soil need not be so extremely rich; they get large very much sooner also but will 
not keep as long in storage. In the fall we have the hardy Egyptian Onion setts; in the spring the 
yellow and white bottom setts. Price on request. 
One ounce of seeds for 100 feet. One pound of setts for 50 feet.
