DANDELION 
One ounce will sow 100 feet of drill 
This is one of the earliest spring vegetables. When small the leaves are very 
tender and esteemed for making salad. Sow the seed in spring, when the soil 
becomes warm, usually in April, and from then until the middle of August, in 
rows one foot apart and Jinch deep. It remains over winter and is ready for 
cutting the following spring. If the roots are not disturbed, they will grow again, 
affording another supply the next year.

From May 15 to June 15 sow seed Jinch deep in drills 1J feet apart. Unless the plants stand very thick, it is 
not necessary to thin out, but keep soil cultivated and free from weeds.

_ are used extensively for flavoring dill pickles; far superior to the common variety. Pkt. 5 cts., 
oz. 15 cts., Jib. 40 cts., lb. $1.25.

5 cts., oz. 10 cts., Jib. 30 cts., lb. $1. 
Eggplant 
One ounce will produce 1,000 plants 
As the seed of Eggplant is slow in germinating, 
it should be sown in a hotbed or greenhouse where it 
will receive the benefit of as much heat as possible. 
Sow seed during February and the early part of 
March, and as the plants are very sensitive, they 
should not be transplanted to the open ground 
until June, when all danger of cool weather is past. 
The plants should be transplanted at least once 
in the frames before the final setting out. Set plants 
2J feet apart each way. 
New York Improved Purple. This is not only 
the finest Eggplant for the garden, but it is the 
largest and most profitable for the market as 
well. The plants are spineless, very productive, 
yielding from four to six extra-large, oval-shaped 
fruits of a beautiful rich purple. It is early, and 
of the finest quality. Pkt. 10 cts., oz. 50 cts.. 
Jib. $1.50, lb. $5.50.

so large as the well-known New York Improved 
Purple, it matures from a week to ten days 
earlier. The fruits have thick flesh and are very 
attractive in appearance, being of a rich, glossy, , , . 
purplish black color. Plants are of strong, stocky growth and very productive,
