ASPARAGUS SEED 
When an Asparagus bed is started from seed 
the seed should be sown in the open ground in 
early spring and plants transplanted to the per¬ 
manent bed when one year old. One ounce of 
seed will sow 50 feet of row. Asparagus grows to 
perfection in Idaho. 
Mary Washington 
A rust resistant ^strain developed by the ex¬ 
perts of the United States Department of Agri¬ 
culture. Is a heavy producer of large, rich green 
colored stalks, with a trifle purple tint at the 
tips. Of excellent quality and very early. 
Pkt., 5c; oz., 15c; y± lb., 30c. Postage paid. 
Asparagus Roots 
By far the most satisfactory way to obtain an 
Asparagus bed is to set out the roots. It takes 
three years to secure a good producing bed from 
seed, but with good healthy roots, such as we 
have, a bearing bed can be had in from one to 
two years.
