SALSIFY—Vegetable Oyster 
One ounce will sow about 50 feet of drill. 
CULTURE—Sow the seed early in spring, in drills twelve inches apart and 
one inch deep, thinning out the young plants to six inches. The roots will be 
ready in October, when a supply should be taken up and stored like carrots. 
Those remaining wdll suffer no injury by being left in the ground until spring. 
MAMMOTH SANDWICH ISLAND— Ten¬ 
der and delicious. Superior to all other sorts.

SAVOY LEAVED OR BLOOMSDALE—

LONG STANDING, ROUND THICK 
LEAVED —Dark green, very long standing 
before running to seed. Oz., 5c; ^ lb., 15c. 
KING OF DENMARK —Best all season 
spinach, remains two weeks longer before 
going to seed. Oz., 5c; ^4 lb., 20c. 
PRINCESS JULIANA —Remains in good 
condition longer than other sorts. Leaves 
dark green and crumpled; large, rounded and 
thick. An excellent shipper. Slow to go to 
seed. Round seeded. Oz., 5c; ^4 lb., 15c. 
NEW ZEALAND —Entirely different from 
the tree Spinach in type and in that it thrives 
during hot weather and in any soil, rich or 
poor. The tender shoots are of good quality 
and may be cut throughout the summer. 
Plant three or four seeds in Kills two feet 
apart each way. This Spinach can be used 
in August or September or up till frost. By 
using only the leaves it will sprout out again. 
Oz., 5c; ^4 lb., 20c. 
NOBEL GIANT LEAVED SPINACH— 
This new spinach grows very rapidly and 
attains a large size very early. The yield is 
consequently large and the fact that it is 
produced very early makes this one of the 
most profitable varieties for spring sowing. 
The plants stand remarkably well without 
bolting. The leaves are of the largest size, 
nearly smooth, thick and quite deep green. 
We advise gardeners to try this new variety. 
We are sure it will prove profitable. Oz., 5c; 
14 lb., 15c. 
SQUASH 
DELICIOUS —This is a fall and winter va- 
viety of medium size. Although not very thick, 
the shell is rather hard and strong. Usually 
dark green but sometimes lighter in color and 
mottled. The flesh is thick, very fine grained 
and bright yellow in color. It is considered by 
many to be the best for markets where quality 
is appreciated as well as very desirable for the 
home garden. We have by continued and care¬ 
ful selection made a marked improvement in 
uniformity of type and we believe the seed we 
offer is equal to the best obtainable, Oz., 15c; 
14 lb., 45c.
