German,—Peterfile French,—Persie

One ounce for 150 feet of drill 
Parsley succeeds best in rich, mellow soil. As the 
seed germinates very slowly, it should be sown early 
in spring, previously soaking the seed for a few hours 
in tepid water. Sow thickly in rows a foot apart and 
half an inch deep. 
Champion Moss Curled. The standard variety.

PARSNIP 
German,—Pastinake French,—Panais 
Spanish,—Pastinaca 
One ounce for 150 feet of drill; five pounds in drills 
for an acre 
Sow in drills as early in spring as the weather will 
admit, fifteen inches apart, covering half an inch deep. 
When well up, thin out to five or six inches apart in the 
rows. Unlike carrots, they are improved by frost, and 
it is usual to take up in the fall a certain quantity for 
winter use, leaving the rest in the ground till spring, 
to be dug as required. 
Prices on all varieties of parsnips as follows: 
Pkt., .10; oz., .20; lb., .50; prices in quantity on 
application.

large; fine sort.

from roots, and a general favorite.

also be sown in the open ground when danger of frost 
is past.
