for the beets and carrots and will be ready for pulling by the 
time they need the room. 
Rhubarb 
A & M Cherry 
Write for Circular 
This superb variety was first offered by us 
in 1925 and proved a sensation wherever 
grown. Shipments were made all over the 
country and the demand was beyond all ex¬ 
pectation. This peerless strain is far superior 
to any we know. Indeed its beautiful cherry 
red appearance alone makes an instant ap¬ 
peal and in addition to this it is less tart 
than other sorts. There is no coarse fibre 
and the stems will keep in marketable con¬ 
dition for several weeks after maturity with¬ 
out becoming soft or pithy, as do most va¬ 
rieties. It grows to a desirable size and 
rarely runs to seed. Yields are prodigious, 
500 40-lb. boxes per acre being the average 
cutting that may be expected in a warm 
climate. Four cuttings are usually made per 
year. 
Roots should be planted by hand on level 
land, the crowns being placed % inch deep 
in heavy soils and 1 inch deep in sandy loam. 
Set 2 Y 2 feet apart in rows 5 feet apart. Mois¬ 
ture must be kept to surface until plants are 
established. In districts where frosts would 
retard the gTowth, it is recommended that 
planting be deferred until the latter part of 
February but in warmer locations roots may 
be set out earlier. Roots 25c each, $2.50 per 
doz., postpaid. Not prepaid, $17.50 per 100. 
We do not offer seed of this variety. 
Giant Winter 
ROOTS —This variety is very early and is 
a very desirable sort to grow. 15c each, $1.50 
per doz., postpaid. 
SEED —Sow seed of Rhubarb any time from 
February 1 until July 1. Transplant when 
the roots are as large as a pencil. Within 
five months of sowing, the plants will bear 
large stems and grow nearly the entire year. 
Rhubarb seed will not always produce plants 
true to type. (Pkt. 5c) (oz. $1.60) ('A lb. $5.00)
