Field Beans 
GREAT NORTHERN 
The Most Delicious Baking Bean in the World 
Everyone knows the Great Northern Bean, but few know that the seed was originally obtained 
by Oscar H. Will forty-eight years ago from Son of a Star, an Hidatsa Indian, by whose tribe it 
had been raised for many years. Hardy, a wonderful yielder, sweeter, more tender, more read¬ 
ily digestible, and more quickly cooked than Navy Beans, the Great Northern is one of the most 
largely grown field sorts. 14 lb., 7c; % lb., 12c; 1 lb., 20c. Not prepaid: 10 lbs., 05c; 100 lbs., 
$7.50.

Culture. One ounce will sowuifty feetof drill. Sow early in Spring- in 
rows one foot apart; when one year old the roots may be taken up and 
transplanted in permanent beds, which should be made by taking out the 
soil to a depth of about 16 inches; fill in with six inches of well rotted stable 
manure, then six inches of soil somewhat firmed. Place the roots on the 
same about 10 inches apart with the roots well spread out, and cover so 
that the crown will be about four inches below the surface. Keep the sur¬ 
face well raked to keep down the weeds until the shoots appear. 
MARY WASHINGTON. The new rust resistant variety developed by 
the experts of the U. S. Department of Agriculture which we believe 
will soon be grown to the exclusion of all other varieties. A very 
heavy yielding pedigreed strain; the rich, dark green stalks are long, 
thick and heavy. About 225 seeds to a packet. Pkt., 10c; oz., 20c; 
14 lb., 45c; 1 lb., $1.25, postpaid. _

sort of this most delicately flavored of the Cabbage family. This va¬ 
riety is the earliest most dwarf and compact. Pkt., 10c; oz., 20c; 
14 lb., 60c; 1 lb., $2.00. 
Blatterkohl (Ger.) BORECOLE OR KALE Greenkaal (Scan.) 
GREEN CURLED or SCOTCH. This is more hardy than cabbage and 
makes excellent greens for Fall and early Spring. A good frost im¬ 
proves the quality. About 1300 seeds to the packet. Pkt., 5c; oz.,

Spargelkohl (Ger.) BROCCOLI Broccoli-Kaal (Scan.) 
ITALIAN GREEN SPROUTING. A distinct variety forming a large solid head, which remains green. 
When the central head is cut, numerous sprouts develop from the leaf axes, each sprout terminat¬ 
ing in a small green head Cooked as is cauliflower, it is very easily grown and decidedly worth 
trying. Pkt., 10c; y z oz., 30c; oz., 50c. 
Kerbel (Ger.) CHERVIL Kjoervel (Scan.) 
CURLED. More handsome and finely curled than parsley and useful in garnishing. Our strain 
is very early and finely flavored. Pkt., 10c; oz., 20c; 14 lb., 60c; 1 lb., $1.80, postpaid. 
I want another packet of Broccoli and try it again this year. I got seed from you last year and 
had lovely Broccoli and many different people wondered what it was.
