PALMETTO. Early and uniform, producing stalks

MARY WASHINGTON. The best of the several 
strains originated by the U. S. Department of 
Agriculture. The shoots are larger and grow much 
more rapidly than the other varieties. Very vigor¬ 
ous, with thick stalks which grow unusually tall 
without branching. Deep green with purple tips. 
This is the best variety for commercial planting. 
BORAGE 
One ounce will sow 75 feet of row 
A hardy annual used for bee-food and as a pot¬ 
herb. Coarse, hairy plants with large oval leaves and 
blue flower-racemes. 
BROCCOLI 
ITALIAN GREEN SPROUTING. This vigorous plant 
is entirely different from the white heading sorts. 
Cultivated like cabbage, it bears a succession of 
sprouting heads which, if kept cut, will be replaced 
by others for 8 or 10 weeks. Each sprout, about 5 
inches long, ends in a small head of deep green 
buds. Many think this vegetable superior in flavor 
to cauliflower.

LONG ISLAND-GROWN HALF-DWARF IM¬ 
PROVED. A very uniform strain that has proved 
more productive of firm, dark green sprouts than 
can be grown from imported seed. The plants do 
not grow very tall but are compact and hardy and 
covered from the ground up with solid sprouts. 
This is the most profitable variety of all to grow.
